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.

George Ni,Seyed Hadi Zandavi,Seyyed Morteza Javid,Svetlana V. Boriskina,Thomas Cooper,Gang Chen +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, a salt-rejecting evaporation structure that can operate continuously under sunlight to generate clean vapor while floating in a saline body of water such as an ocean is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI
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.

Implementing an IS strategy—A team approach
TL;DR: In this paper, an ISSP process is proposed to satisfy the need for a consistent linkage of IS strategy with corporate strategy by adopting elements of the corporate strategic planning literature, which provides a framework for enforcing the participation and involvement of managerial staff of the target organization and supports a structured team approach during the process's implementation.

Coastal cliff recession: the use of probabilistic prediction methods
TL;DR: In this paper, a range of probabilistic methods are introduced for predicting coastal cliff recession, which provide a means of demonstrating the potential variability in such predictions, and form the basis for risk-based land-use planning, cliff management and engineering decision-making.
