The variance-covariance method is employed at low doses and in radiation fields of low dose rates from an 241Am (4 nGy/s) and a 90Sr (300 nGy/s) source. The preliminary applications and results illustrate some of the potential of the method, and show that the dose average of lineal energy or energy imparted can be determined over a wide range of doses and dose rates. The dose averages obtained ...

An experiment was carried out at the Agronomy Field Laboratory, Bangladesh Agricultural University, Mymensingh, during July to December 2006 to study the root growth of four Transplant Aman rice varieties as influenced by NPKS fertilization. The experiment was laid out in a split-plot design with three replications. The experiment consisted of four varieties viz. BRRI dhan30, BRRI dhan31, BRRI ...

In this paper, we characterise the compromise value of a game as the barycentre of the edges of its core cover. For this, we introduce the τ∗ value, which extends the adjusted proportional rule for bankruptcy situations and coincides with the compromise value on a large class of games.

This paper inspects the misaligned motors by using diagnostic medium such as current, flux and instantaneous power signal. Misalignments in machines can cause decrease in efficiency and in the long-run it may cause disastrous failure because of unnecessary vibration, stress on motor & bearings and short-circuiting in stator and rotor windings. The measurements have been performed at full-load t...
