The purpose of this study is to investigate bending moment and the axial load capacity of a pressurized pipe suffering from a through-wall circumferential crack repaired by a composite sleeve. The three-dimensional finite element method (FEM) was adopted to compute the results, and the failure assessment diagram (FAD) was employed to investigate the failure behavior of the repaired pipe. The fi...

budding is a good method of propagation in the persian walnut (juglans regia l.)., however, success of budding is low due to higher root pressure as well as the presence of phenolic compounds in the xylem sap. this study was conducted to compare various budding methods and cut below budding :union: on two and three-year-old persian walnut under field conditions. the experiment was conducted bas...

abstract- a real-time, site-specific, machine-vision based, inter-row patch herbicide application system was developed and evaluated. the image resolution was 640 × 480 pixels covering a total area of 350 mm x 240 mm of a field composed of four quadrants of 350 mm x 60 mm each. the image frames were processed by labview® and matlab®. the developed algorithm, based on weed coverage ratio and seg...
