This study attempts to optimize the arc-shaped coned disk affecting uniformity of earlier designed fertilizer apparatus (FA), in particular, for application rice–oil rotation region middle and lower reaches Yangtze River, China. Based on theoretical analysis, a circular with curvature gradual decline (GD) from top bottom was designed, equation cone determined. The EDEM discrete element software...

This paper proposes a new integrative view of manufacturing cell formation and both inter-cell and intra-cell layout problems. Cells formation and their popular bi-directional linear layout are determined simultaneously through a Dynamic Programming algorithm (with the objective of minimizing the inter-cell flow cost under a cell size constraint). This Dynamic Programming algorithm is implement...

abstract objectives, the purpose of this research was to evaluate of the intra-rater and inter-raters reliability of the 10 meter walk test (10 mwt) in 30 adults with spastic cerebral palsy (cp) with subgroup analyses in gross motor function classification system (gmfcs). material & methods, participants  (19 men, 11 women; mean age 27 y and 9 mo) with gmfcs levels below iv (i, ii, and iii) non...

this study aimed to evaluate the reliability factors, and identify causes of error in direct anthropometry method. after training three beginner anthropometrists and following the instructions of anthropometric standards, 48 body dimensions of 42 male students were measured three times. in other words, the physical dimensions of each subject were measured for 9 times. all participants were wear...
