TL;DR: The data indicate that the concept of P/E ratios must be restricted to diets containing adequate levels of protein and total energy, as well as more efficiently in terms of percent protein deposited than diets containing higher crude protein levels.
Abstract: Twenty-one semipurified diets were formulated to determine the optimum protein:energy ratio (P/E) for channel catfish fingerlings. Seven crude protein levels and three energy levels at each protein level were utilized. The protein, lipid, and digestible carbohydrate sources were hexane-extracted whole egg powder, salmon-corn oil mixture, and white dextrin, respectively. After an initial 2 week conditioning period, the experimental diets were fed in triplicate to groups of 30 +/- 3 channel catfish fingerlings weighing 205 +/- 10 g and kept in 110 liter flow-through aquaria at 26.7 +/- 1.1 degrees. The diets were fed at a rate equalling 3% of the total wet body weight/day divided into three equal feedings and adjusted weekly for 9 weeks. An approximate fivefold increase in body weight was observed. These data indicate that the concept of P/E ratios must be restricted to diets containing adequate levels of protein and total energy. Based on average daily gain, diets containing energy levels between 275 and 341 kcal/100 g had an optimum P/E ratio of approximately 88 (24-36% crude protein). Diets containing 24% crude protein and 275 kcal/100 g diet appeared to be utilized more efficiently in terms of percent protein deposited than diets containing higher crude protein levels.

TL;DR: The results of field trials and associated testing of the OctArm series of multi-section continuous backbone "continuum" robots have been described, in which the manipulators demonstrated the ability for adaptive and novel manipulation in challenging environments.
Abstract: This paper describes the results of field trials and associated testing of the OctArm series of multi-section continuous backbone "continuum" robots. This novel series of manipulators has recently (Spring 2005) undergone a series of trials including open-air and in-water field tests. Outcomes of the trials, in which the manipulators demonstrated the ability for adaptive and novel manipulation in challenging environments, are described. Implications for the deployment of continuum robots in a variety of applications are discussed
