This paper proposes an improved ant colony algorithm to achieve efficient searching capabilities of path planning in complicated maps for mobile robot.The improved ant colony algorithm uses the characteristics of A* algorithm and MAX-MIN Ant system.Firstly, the grid environment model is constructed.The evaluation function of A* algorithm and the be
Flocculation treatment processes play an important role in water and wastewater pretreatment.Here we investigate experimentally and theoretically the possibility of using graphene oxide (GO) as a flocculant to remove methylene Fuse blue (MB) from water.Experimental results show that GO can remove almost all MB from aqueous solutions at its optimal
Nitrogen (N) limits crop production, yet more than half of N fertilizer inputs are lost to the environment.Developing maize hybrids with improved N use efficiency can help minimize N losses and in turn reduce adverse ecological, economical, and health consequences.This study aimed to identify single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) associated with a
