TLDR
To detect short circuit and insulation faults arising during construction and to confirm the effectiveness of the shielding as it is installed, the probe test should be carried out at frequent intervals during the construction.Abstract:
This chapter discusses a current comparator. The design of the various components of a comparator may be affected by these factors. To detect short circuit and insulation faults arising during construction and to confirm the effectiveness of the shielding as it is installed, the probe test should be carried out at frequent intervals during the construction.read more

CASE tools as organizational change: investigating incremental and radical changes in systems development
TL;DR: The framework and findings suggest that in order to account for the experiences and outcomes associated with CASE tools, researchers should consider the social context of systems development, the intentions and actions of key players, and the implementation process followed by the organization.

Aquatic selenium pollution is a global environmental safety issue.
TL;DR: Failure to include selenium in the list of constituents measured in contaminant screening/monitoring programs is a major mistake, both from the hazard assessment aspect and from the pollution control aspect.

Metabolic control analysis is helpful for informed genetic manipulation of oilseed rape (Brassica napus) to increase seed oil content.
Randall J. Weselake,Saleh Shah,Mingguo Tang,Patti A. Quant,Crystal L. Snyder,Tara L. Furukawa-Stoffer,Weiming Zhu,David C. Taylor,Jitao Zou,Arvind Kumar,Linda M. Hall,André Laroche,Gerhard Rakow,Phillip Raney,Maurice M. Moloney,John L. Harwood +15 more
TL;DR: Increased seed oil content, increased DGAT activity, and reduced substrate:product ratio are demonstrated, as well as reduced flux control by complex lipid assembly, as determined by TDCA in Brassica napus (canola) lines which overexpress the gene encoding type-1 DGAT.
