Abstract Used bicycle parts made from metal are often found in waste disposal or sold flea markets. Metal still has economic value because it can be recycled. However, the process requires special equipment and only carried out on an industrial scale. Although at markets, problem is that not many buyers. Most spare incompatible with current model, so these items pile up seller’s stall. This pap...

Evaluation of the critical nature of interior cracks in turbine rotor component web regions in order to assess the remaining service life of the parts requires accurate determination of the crack sizes in order to perform fracture mechanics analysis. This analysis is important both in order to retire critically defective parts and in order to return components to service if detected flaws are s...

Abstract. We present a system for interactive explorations of extraand intracranial blood vessels. Starting with a stack of images from 3D angiography, we use virtual clips to limit the segmentation of the vessel tree to the parts the neuroradiologists are interested in. Furthermore, methods of interactive virtual endoscopy are applied in order to provide an interior view of the blood vessels. ...

Fresh pistachio fruit cv. Kalleghochi was harvested from the exterior and interior parts of the tree canopy in four geographical directions. The fruit position in exterior and interior parts of the tree canopy has a significant influence on the number of nuts per ounce, pistachio splitting, hull weight, shell weight, kernel weight, colour indices and total anthocyanin content. Results indicated...

In this paper we generalise results regarding the order of accuracy of finite difference operators on Summation-By-Parts (SBP) form, previously known to hold on uniform grids, to grids with arbitrary point distributions near domain boundaries. We give a definite proof that the order of accuracy in the interior of a diagonal norm based SBP operator must be at least twice that of the boundary ste...

Based on the scattering cancellation, we provide a method not only making a nanoparticle nearly invisible, but also hiding its interior region from the outside probing matter wave. By applying the interplay among the nodal points of partial waves along with the concept of streamline in fluid dynamics for probability flux, a quantum invisible cloak to the electron transport in a host semiconduct...
