Nitrogen (N) plays a vital role in the productivity of maize (Zea mays L). To investigate fertilizer effects N on yield and growth hybrid variety (Gorilla), experiment was carried out at research farm University Swabi, Pakistan, during summer 2017-18. Four levels (Urea, Urea + Farm Yard Manure (FYM), Compost, Poultry (PM)) were set present study. Randomized complete block design (RCBD) used wit...

The labour requirements and capital costs for the various cane yard layouts in the South African mills vary significantly. The various types of equipment available for cane handling and their effect on the capital and operating costs of the cane yard are discussed.

Management of container terminal operations is essentially the allocation and scheduling of the expensive resources such as berths, quay cranes, storage space, yard cranes, and container carriers. Each of these resources plays an indispensable role in the interlocking processes in a container terminal. In this survey we give a critical review and a comparative study on various decision problems...

Since the last two decades, container transportation system has been faced under increasing development. This fact shows the importance of container transportation system as a key role of container terminals to link between sea and land. Therefore, there is a continuous need for the optimal use of equipment and facilities in the ports. Regarding the complex structure of container ports, this pa...

Keywords: Container terminal Maritime shipping Block length Yard crane deployment Simulation Terminal design Gross crane rate As more and more container terminals open up all over the world, terminal operators are discovering that they must increase quay crane work rates in order to remain competitive. In this paper we present a simulation study that shows how a terminal's long-run average quay...

Hypocretin (Hcrt) has been implicated in the control of motor activity and in respiration and cardiovascular changes. Loss of Hcrt in narcolepsy is linked to sleepiness and to cataplexy, a sudden loss of muscle tone which is triggered by sudden strong emotions. In the current study we have compared the effects of treadmill running, to yard play on cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) Hcrt level in normal ...

Time delay spread and path loss measurements were performed in a large, active train yard to support development of intra-yard wireless communication systems, such as those intended to communicate with individual railcars and for track-to-terminal communications. Propagation measurements focused on three sites within the train yard: a close-in site, a paralleltrack site, and a cross-track site....
