root morphological and distribution responses of signal grass (brachiaria decumbens) to long-term cattle grazing were examined in a tropical pasture in malaysia. the treatments were no grazing by cattle and grazing at a moderate stocking density (2.7 animal unit/ha) under rotational grazing for 33 years. the method consists of taking soil core using a soil corer to a depth of 30 cm and extracti...

In this paper the numerical simulation of flow field in the new design dynamic cyclone separator is investigated. The effects of different geometrical parameters such as impeller diameter, number of vanes, length and the location of impeller is investigated. The Reynolds averaged Navier–Stokes equations with Reynolds stress turbulence model (RSM) were solved. The Eulerian-Lagrangian computation...

the use of heavy machinery in forestry operations such as logging has increased worldwide during the last decades. however, these machines may seriously influence the soil ecosystem as they induce rutting, disturbing the upper soil layers, and soil compaction. severe compaction of soil adversely affects the growth of plants.this study was done by using a penetration resistance experiment in a g...

the seismic analysis of structures in the past relied on the assumed soil desirable effects as the elongation of excitation period with higher damping. therefore, imposing earthquake loading at the foundation level fulfilling higher safety requirements was the common practice until occasional movement amplifications demanded more rigorous research. the goal of the current study is to scrutinize...

background: the aim of this in vitro study was to evaluate the effect of shape, diameter and length of implants on their primary stability based on resonance frequency analysis. materials and methods: replace select tapered and branemark mk iii implants were selected. each of these two selected groups was divided into nine subgroups based on the implant length (il) (short, medium and long) and ...
