The elevated reinforced concrete tanks assessed in the current work were subject of a nonlinear sloshing analysis resulting from fluid–container interactions. primary response quantity interest was height free surface sloshing. To achieve this aim, effect liquid contents on seismic behavior subjected to various sets far- and near-fault ground motions measured. variables considered study include...

During ship block construction, watertight bulkheads weld of every cabin ships need to undergo stress testing according the tanks’ test plan. Every incomplete bulkhead cannot be sprayed in order protect them after sandblasting; this seriously affects process construction. Therefore, issue study is maintain integrity painting quality and reduce destruction paint, ship-building personnel seek how...

BACKGROUND A five-year citywide control program based on regular application of temephos significantly reduced Aedes aegypti larval indices but failed to maintain them below target levels in Clorinda, northern Argentina. Incomplete surveillance coverage and reduced residuality of temephos were held as the main putative causes limiting effectiveness of control actions. METHODOLOGY The duration...

The ISAC Separated Function DTL is designed to accelerate ions of 3 ≤ A/q ≤ 6 to energies fully variable between 0.153 to 1.53 MeV/u. The DTL includes five IH-tanks with quadrupole triplets between tanks and triple gap split ring bunchers before tanks 2, 3, and 4. The final configuration of the DTL is due for commissioning in Dec. 2000. Recently a beam test with the first section of the DTL com...

Wastewater treatment plants affect the environment in many different ways. It can be assumed that the intensity and range of microbiological emission is the crucial factor in determining the range of restrictedusage zone. This paper presents emission levels of microbiological pollutants from the wastewater treatment plant in Bartoszyce, Poland. It is a new plant with multifunctional activated-s...

The paper addresses control related design issues for neutralization plants. Mainly for control reasons, the neutralization is usually performed in several steps (mixing tanks) with gradual change in the concentration. The aim is to give recommendations for issues like tank sizes and number of tanks. Assuming strong acids and bases, we derive linearized relationships from the disturbance variab...

Abstract Assessment of seismic resilience critical infrastructure such as liquefied natural gas (LNG) storage tanks, is essential to ensure availability and security services during after occurrence large earthquakes. In many projects, it preferred build energy facilities in coastal areas for the ease sea transportation, where weak soils soft clay loose sand with liquefaction potential may be p...

-An apparatus providing continuous artificial illumination of constant intensity directed to the lower surface of flounders is pictured. Pigmentation was developed on the lower normally unpigmented surface in a high percentage of summer flounders in the following experimental situations: (1) Unoperated fishes in black tanks illuminated from below. (2) Blinded dark fishes in black tanks illumina...
