No specimen examined. Remarks. This species varies in the color pattern of the crown and is close to G. pallidus in external characters but can be easily differentiated by the male genitalia.Published as part of Shah, Bismillah, Naveed, Hassan & Duan, Yani, 2019, Taxonomic review of the leafhopper genus Grammacephalus Haupt (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae: Deltocephalinae: Scaphoideini) with description of a new species from Pakistan, pp. 71-85 in Zootaxa 4688 (1) on page 74, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.4688.1.3, http://zenodo.org/record/351482

    Generalized (varphi,psi)-weak contractions involving (f,g)-reciprocally continuous maps in fuzzy metric spaces

    No full text
    We introduce the notion of (f,g)-reciprocal continuity in fuzzy metric spaces and prove a common fixed point theorem for a pair of sub-compatible maps by employing a generalized (varphi,psi)-weak contraction. As an application of our result, we prove a theorem for a (varphi,psi)-weak cyclic contraction in fuzzy metric spaces

    Does G 0 of Granular Materials Carry Information on Their Particle Characteristics?

    No full text
    Small strain elastic properties, such as G 0 , are used to model the soil behaviour under dynamic and static loading. In granular materials, these depend mainly on effective stress and density. However, the influence of particle morphology on G 0 cannot be neglected. This paper presents series of laboratory experiments on different granular materials using resonant column apparatus and bender elements. The combined effect of particle morphology, size and distribution of glass ballotini and quartz sands was investigated by using micro-mechanics based analytical model. Experimental results indicate that the A and n parameters of the G 0 =A*f (e)*(p′/p r ) ⁿ relationship are linked to particle size, roughness and shape. Using an analytical model, A and n parameter is expressed as function of particle characteristics. The potential use of G 0 to predict particle characteristics is explored in this study

    Maximally localized Wannier functions in LaMnO 3 within PBE + U , hybrid functionals and partially self-consistent GW: an efficient route to construct ab initio tight-binding parameters for e g perovskites

    Using the newly developed VASP2WANNIER90 interface we have constructed maximally localized Wannier functions (MLWFs) for the e(g) states of the prototypical Jahn-Teller magnetic perovskite LaMnO3 at different levels of approximation for the exchange-correlation kernel. These include conventional density functional theory (DFT) with and without the additional on-site Hubbard U term, hybrid DFT and partially self-consistent GW. By suitably mapping the MLWFs onto an effective e(g) tight-binding (TB) Hamiltonian we have computed a complete set of TB parameters which should serve as guidance for more elaborate treatments of correlation effects in effective Hamiltonian-based approaches. The method-dependent changes of the calculated TB parameters and their interplay with the electron-electron (el-el) interaction term are discussed and interpreted. We discuss two alternative model parameterizations: one in which the effects of the el-el interaction are implicitly incorporated in the otherwise 'noninteracting' TB parameters and a second where we include an explicit mean-field el-el interaction term in the TB Hamiltonian. Both models yield a set of tabulated TB parameters which provide the band dispersion in excellent agreement with the underlying ab initio and MLWF bands

    Product variety and reliability

    Murthy et al. [Murthy DNP, Rausand M, Virtanen S. Investment in new product reliability, Reliability Engineering & System Safety (accepted for publication)l proposed an approach to decide on product reliability in the context of new product development and identified two tasks for execution as part of the overall process. In this paper, we focus on the first task-determining the product reliability requirements
