9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 Laboratory column experiments involving steady flow in homogeneous soil are often analyzed assuming that the flow is spatially uniform in any plane transverse to the longitudinal axis aligned with the column centerline. Axisymmetric steady flow in such a column was analyzed to determine the impact of radially nonuniform boundary conditions at the column entrance and...

abstract strawberry is one of the most important fruit crops in the world. in this study, effect of different plant densities were studied on yield and fruit quality of strawberry 'selva' in greenhouse and laboratories of university college of agriculture and natural resources during 2002-2003. uniform stolens of strawberry were planted in holes of plastic column according to factorial in compl...

We study the formation of columnar structures of uniaxial dipoles in an external magnetic field both experimentally and theoretically. By applying an external magnetic field parallel to a thin layer of a magnetorheological fluid, we manipulate a single initial cluster of suspended colloidal particles. We find that the cluster breaks up into columns that have approximately uniform widths and int...

Duplex capillary columns with a packed and an open section are widely used in electrochromatography (CEC). The duplex column configuration leads to non-uniform voltage drop, electrical field distribution and separation performance. It also adds to the complexity in understanding and optimizing electrochromatographic process. In this study, we introduced a simplex column configuration based on s...

In this paper, we strive towards the development of efficient techniques in order to segment document pages resulting from the digitization of historical machine-printed sources. This kind of documents often suffer from low quality and local skew, several degradations due to the old printing matrix quality or ink diffusion, and exhibit complex and dense layout. To face these problems, we introd...

We propose a new model of steganography based on a list of pseudo-randomly sorted sequences of characters. Given a list L of m columns containing n distinct strings each, with low or no semantic relationship between columns taken two by two, and a secret message s ∈ {0, 1}∗, our model embeds s in L block by block, by generating, for each column of L, a permutation number and by reordering strin...
