In this chapter, I examine the different word orders found with Is constructions in Modern Irish. These orderings are seen in the following sentences. In the following sentences the notional subject is indicated in bold. The property being assigned to that subject is indicated in italics (see Stenson (1981) and Ó Siadhail (1989) for descriptions of these orders) 1) a) Is dochtúir (í) Beverly Cr...

Transportation costs are a significant part of capital and operating costs of large open pit mines. Cost efficiency and high reliability of in pit crushing and conveying systems compared to conventional truck-shovel system makes it more appealing to be utilized in modern mining activities. In this paper the suitable location of an in pit crusher is investigated as a single hub location problem....

In this paper, block-oriented systems with linear parts based on Laguerre functions is used to approximation of a cone crusher dynamics. Adaptive recursive least squares algorithm is used to identification of Laguerre model. Various structures of Hammerstein, Wiener, Hammerstein-Wiener models are tested and the MATLAB simulation results are compared. The mean square error is used for models val...

We report the preparation of graphene phosphonic acid (GPA) via a simple and versatile method and its use as an efficient flame retardant. In order to covalently attach phosphorus to the edges of graphene nanoplatelets, graphite was ball-milled with red phosphorus. The cleavage of graphitic C-C bonds during mechanochemical ball-milling generates reactive carbon species, which react with phospho...

  Background : Cement industry has many process units. Basically all of these units can be considered as a source of noise. Since noise pollution is defined based on its offensive hearing effects, the importance of the noise sources depends directly on the number of workers in the unit.   Materials and Methods : An experimental study has been done at Tehran cement factory to recogn...

Many research studies have been conducted on the liberation of locked minerals using a crusher and comparing this device with the other devices. This paper reviews the liberation of middle coal by different methods of crushing force. In the Tabas coal washing plant, particles of 0.5-50 mm size are processed through the heavy media method (using 3 Tri-flo separators) and particles of 0-0.5 mm si...

A case of acute silicosis complicating as spontaneous pneumomediastinum, bilateral pneumothorax and subcutaneous emphysema is described in a 35-year-old male engaged in stone crusher unit. Diagnosis was established on clinical and radiological assessment and supported by occupational history of the patient. This case is unique one as all these 3 complications at the same time are very uncommon ...

olive oil extraction methods and technology can affect the quality and quantity of the extracted oil. in this study, qualitative and quantitative parameters were investigated for oil extracted using a hammer crusher at 720 and 1450 rpm at 30°, 40°, 60° c mixing temperatures. the data were analyzed using a complete randomized block factorial design using spss software with three replications. th...
