There is a wide range of information available on by-product disposal methods used by large national breweries. However, little information is available on the methods of by-product disposal used by craft breweries. An investigation was carried out in which 200+ British craft brewers were contacted, of which 90 craft brewers provided basic information about their brewery operations and by-produ...

changes in moisture content and temperature can perturb both stiffness and strength and as such the impact resistance of composite structures. in this paper, the pre-notched basalt fibre reinforced epoxy (bfre) composite specimens are studied under charpy impact loads in order to investigate the changes in impact energy absorption (fracture toughness) with different kinds of aging conditions. t...

This article applies Campbell's (2005) theory of craft consumption to contemporary food culture. It argues that, besides cooking and the preparation of food, certain modes of domestic food growing can also be regarded as the craft consumption of food. At its core it tries to identify the conditions and possible motives for both modes of the craft consumption of food that can shed light on socia...

This article explores the relationship between craft production, exchange, and power in the pre-Incaic Andes, with a focus on recent archaeological evidence from Chavı́n, Nasca, Tiwanaku, Wari, and Moche. I argue that craft production and exchange in concert with materialized ideologies played vital roles in the development of political power in the Andes. In later state societies, craft product...

Air-to-air combat between two aggressive aircraft , both equipped with medium-range guided missiles, is .a key element of future air warfare. This dynamic coni lict can be viewed as an interaction of a twotarget diiferential game (between the air-craft) and two independent missileaircraft pursuit-evasion games. The information structure is, however, rather intricate: though perfect information ...

We report results from the Eddy Experiment, where a synchronous GPS receiver pair was flown on an aircraft to collect sampled L1 signals and their reflections from the sea surface to investigate the altimetric accuracy of GNSS-R. During the experiment, surface wind speed (U10) was of the order of 10 m/s, and significant wave heights of up to 2 m, as discussed further in a companion paper. After...

Samples of primary root tissue of corn (Zea mays L.) were aged either in CaSO(4) solution or in humid air, after which they were immersed for 10 minutes in a solution containing 0.1 mm(86)RbCl. Aging in solution, but not in humid air, enhanced the subsequent rate of Rb(+) absorption. Excision of roots before aging was followed by greater enhancement than when exicision followed aging. The time ...

BACKGROUND Aboriginal Australians experience a disproportionately high burden of alcohol-related harm compared to the general Australian population. Alcohol treatment approaches that simultaneously target individuals and families offer considerable potential to reduce these harms if they can be successfully tailored for routine delivery to Aboriginal Australians. The Community Reinforcement App...
