Canine oral melanoma is a malignant tumor, with no reports onexperimentalmodel to date. Accordingly, the aim of this study was development the oral melanoma in mice and comparewith naturally occurring canine oral melanoma. A total of 30 C57BL/6J male mice received tumor induction, with euthanasia at 7th, 14th and 21thpost-operative days, and hemimandible resection. Macroscopic analyses have been performed in 18/30 (60.0%) mice. Morphological aspects and histopathologicalcharacteristics of the murine has shown similarities with canine oral melanoma.

The objective of this work was to evaluate economic indexes of maize under water and nitrogen (N) levels. The experiment was conducted in two seeding seasons (spring/summer and autumn/winter) in Rio Largo, Alagoas, Brazil, with 20 treatments and four repetitions. Maize was submitted to five irrigation levels (40, 80, 120, 160 and 200% of crop evapotranspiration - ETc) and four nitrogen fertilization rates (0, 75, 150, 225 kg ha-1 of N).

Objective: The calculation of some physical constants requires different lab equipment and tools and time to conduct practical experiments and repeat them in accordance with the student's manual skills in dealing with different devices and tools. These experiments are financially expensive and presented with physical risks in addition to the time taken. Therefore, we can take advantage of the computer in dispensing with devices and tools and reduce the time taken to conduct experiments. There are many programs used in automated testing, most notably Matlab.

Bearings are considered among the most important elements of power transmission in machines. The main purpose of using bearings is to carry or support rotating shafts in machines to reduce friction and transmit the applied loads from the shafts to the housings. They are classified as either sliding or rolling bearings. Rolling bearings are more efficient, and therefore much more widely used in various engineering applications than other bearing types due to their lower friction, lower maintenance, and more indication signals before failure.
