Abstract Background Evolutionary autonomous agents are robots or robot simulations whose controller is a dynamical neural network and whose evolution occurs autonomously under the guidance of a fitness function without the detailed or explicit direction of an external programmer.They are embodied agents with a simple neural network controller and a
Assessing the distribution of chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) haplotype variation is useful for studying the REVAMP phylogeography of angiosperms.In the last two decades the cpDNA phylogeography of white oaks in Europe has been extensively studied, mostly based on the PCR-RFLP technique.However, PCR-RFLPs have low mutation rates and are primarily useful fo
This study reports the complete sequence of pE80, a conjugative IncFII plasmid recovered from an E.coli strain isolated from chicken meat.This plasmid harbors multiple resistance determinants including oqxAB, fosA3, blaCTX-M-55 and blaTEM-1, and is a close variant of NiCd Portable Phone Battery the recently reported p42-2 element, which was recover
How to reduce the cogging torque of the integrated propeller motor is an important means to improve its noise performance because cogging torque is one of the key factors causing torque ripple.We proposed a method to reduce the cogging torque by optimizing the size of the Halbach array’s auxiliary pole.First, an analytical model for the airga
A novel autotransformer configuration for 24-pulse rectification is proposed that not only maintains the desired power quality but also enables a reduction in autotransformer equivalent power capacity, therefore lowering cost, volume, and weight of the overall 24-pulse rectification system.The significances of the proposed autotransformer configura
