Lifespan estimates for the compressible Euler equations with damping via Orlicz spaces techniques
In this paper we are interested in the upper bound of the lifespan estimate for the compressible Euler system with time dependent damping and small initial perturbations.
We employ some techniques from the blow-up study of nonlinear wave equations. The novelty consists in the introduction of tools from the Orlicz spaces theory to handle the nonlinear term emerging from the pressure , which admits different asymptotic behavior for large and small values of , being the density.
Hence we can establish, in dimensions , unified upper bounds of the lifespan estimate depending only on the dimension and on the damping strength, and independent of the adiabatic index . We conjecture our results to be optimal.
The method employed here not only improves the known upper bounds of the lifespan for , but has potential application in the study of related problems.FJC2021-046835-I;

Assessment of Structural Traits and Management Related to Dairy Herds in the Peri-urban Area of Bobo Dioulasso (South West of Burkina Faso)
To define mean herd size, structural traits, animal sourcing and use, management and aspects related to the milk production, 118 dairy herds, involved in a FAO dairy development project were studied. The mean herd size after allocation to clusters: Small (≤38 heads), Medium (>38, ≤61 heads) and Large (>61 heads) was 52.8±25.8, ranging from 7 to 134 heads of cattle. The following genotypes: Cross bred (CR) 58.8%, Zebu (ZB) 23.2% and Taurine cattle (TA) 18.0% which were not uniformly distributed neither across nor within herds were identified. Sex ratio was two thirds of females (70.6%), one third of males (28.1%) and a low proportion (1.3%) of castrated males. No mature TA males compared to 53.3% of the male ZB and 31.4% of the male CR, were indicated as potential sires. Investments in purchase of animals were higher in Small than in Medium and Large herds; of all purchased sires 53.8% were found in Small herds vs. 28.2% and 18.0% in Medium and Large. Herd property was equally distributed between single (56.8%) and multi property (43.2%). There was more manpower available per 100 cows in Small, being almost double and triple than in Medium and Large herds. Although milk extracted, was similar in all clusters averaging 2.4±0.5 litres/day/cow, milk off take rate, due to higher proportion of lactating cows, appeared higher in Small herds
