Assessing sweet sorghum juice and syrup quality and fermentation efficiency
No full textSweet sorghum is a C4 crop with high photosynthetic efficiency with a unique
ability of high carbon assimilation (50 g m-2 day-1) and accumulates high
concentrations of easily fermentable sugars (glucose, fructose and sucrose)
in the stalks. Hence, it is widely believed that it is an alternate energy source
that is renewable, sustainable, efficient, cost-effective, convenient and safe to
use. Sucrose is the major sugar in sweet sorghum juice which constitutes up
to 85% of the total sugars (Woods 2000). The sugar yields ranged between
1.6 to 13.2 Mg ha-1, with significant variations observed between years and
regions (Jackson et al. 1980; Reddy et al. 2007; Zhao et al. 2009). The juice
sugar content is dependent on the crop stage, because fructose is more
abundant at the early development stage, whereas sucrose tends to be
dominant after heading (Sipos et al. 2009). The sweet sorghum juice sugar
content ranged from 10 to 25 Brix% at maturity (Reddy et al. 2007; Ritter
et al. 2004). Research at the International Crops Research Institute for the
Semi-Arid-Tropics (ICRISAT) showed that sweet sorghum juice yield ranges
between 16.8 to 27.2 m3 ha-1 (Reddy et al. 2007) and accrues about 23%
additional returns vis-à-vis grain sorghum (Rao et al. 2009)

Bending analysis of functionally graded rectangular plates using the dual mesh control domain method
No full textThe dual mesh control domain method (DMCDM) introduced by Reddy employs one mesh
for the approximation of the primary variables (primal mesh) and another mesh for the satisfaction
of the governing equations (dual mesh). The present study deals with the extension
and application of the DMCDM to functionally graded rectangular plates. The
formulation makes use of the traditional finite element interpolation of the primary variables
with a primal mesh and a dual mesh to satisfy the integral form of the governing differential
equations, the basic premise of the finite volume method. The method is used to
analyze bending of through-thickness functionally graded rectangular plates using the firstorder
shear deformation plate theory. Numerical results are presented to illustrate the methodology,
and a comparison of the displacements and stresses computed using the DMCDM
with those of the finite element model shows excellent agreement while requiring less formulative
(and possibly computational) effort. The influence of the extensional-bending coupling
stiffness (due to the through-thickness grading of the material) on the deflections is
also brought out

Antenna filiform, dark brown, reaching half-length of forewing. Thorax. Posterior crest a tuft of whitish scales. Pronotal collar dark brown with few reddish-brown scales. Tegulae dark brown mixed with copperish brown basally, some scales with white to cream apices. Legs dark grey with whiteringed tarsi. Wings. Forewings subtriangular, greyish brown ground color; male costal fold absent, costa almost straight except slightly curved apical 1/5; rounded apex; termen oblique and straight; distal paler region not distinct; staggered series of dark and white bands oblique to apex and parallel to termen; wing variably overlaid with dark grey to blackish-brown scales except for small pale band parallel to termen; costal strigulae light brown to grey broken by dark brown streaks; white scale tuft near base of dorsum; a small white dot in middle of wing; semicircular copperish-brown pretornal mark arched with black scales and outlined with whitish scales; cilia mixed whitish, grey and brown scales; underside light brown with greyish yellow spots on costa and outer margin between veins. Hindwing: Greyish brown; cilia pale grey; underside light brown. Abdomen (Fig. 12). Long copper-brown scales dorsally and grey anal tuft. S2 with well-developed anterolateral processes. T8 a broadly sclerotized plate, posterior margin medially convex. Coremata: S8 a crescentic plate, with paired tufts of scales laterally. Male genitalia (Figs. 17, 18). Vinculum a moderately wide band. Tegumen moderately sclerotized, ovate, with broadened base and rounded apex. Uncus and Socii absent. Gnathos moderately sclerotized semicircular depressions on each side with spinulose base. Valva large, elongate-oval, slightly constricted near ventromedially, with a small subtriangular knob dorsomedially; sacculus with large basal excavation with moderately dense bristles along ventral margin, costal process small; cucullus ovate, densely setose, with distinct, sparsely spines projecting outward along ventral margin. Juxta subtriangular; caulis moderately long and sclerotized, with rounded basal spinulose lobes; anellus surrounding base of aedeagus; aedeagus bulbous basal 1/4, remainder abruptly narrowed with parallel-sided; vesica with series of deciduous spiniform cornuti. Female (Fig. 5). Wingspan: 19.5-21 mm (n=1). As male, but with darker pre-apical blotch in the distal half of forewing, and absence of long grey scales dorsally on abdomen. Female genitalia (Fig. 20). Ovipositor lobes moderate, subreniform. S7 trapezoidal. Ostium in shallowed incision of S7 medially. Sterigma moderately sclerotized, narrow ring around ostium connected with subtriangular lamella postvaginalis, covered with dense microtrichia. Ductus bursae about 1/2 length of corpus bursae, gradually widened posteriorly with a small, sclerotized ring-shaped colliculum, inception of ductus seminalis at anterior 1/3 of ductus bursae. Corpus bursae ovate, with a weakly sclerotized, narrow ring of spinules at bursa neck, with two moderately long sickle-shaped signa. Distribution. Chikkavaderapura (India: Karnataka: Bengaluru). Host. Unknown. Etymology. The species name is given after Dr. V.V. Ramamurthy for his contribution to the Indian insect taxonomy. Remarks. Komai (1999) has revised Thaumatotibia, providing illustrations of their genitalia and early stages and characterized the genus by following apomorphies: 1, broadly sclerotized plate on tergum 8 in males with medially convex posterior margin laterally produced into curved points; 2, sterigma represented by a rectangular or ovate raised rim connected posteriorly with a pair of ovate depressions with modified scales; 3, ring of spinules around the entrance of corpus bursae (Komai, 1999).Published as part of Reddy, Karthik M. & Shashank, P.
