In Aluminium manufacturing the Soderberg pot is widely used. The study explains about the bubble motion in cryolite liquid in a Soderberg pot anode face using comprehensive VOF multiphase model in FLUENT, under the action of gravitation. The distribution of bubbles introduced under the anodes of an aluminum reduction cell at the initial time has fixed size. 2D simulation results are reported fo...

We describe the design and evaluation of a geometric interaction technique for bare-hand mid-air virtual pottery. We model the shaping of a pot as a gradual and progressive convergence of the potprofile to the shape of the user’s hand represented as a point-cloud (PCL). Our pottery-inspired application served as a platform for systematically revealing how users use their hands to express the in...

the present study was carried out in order to test the effect of grapevine rootstocks root growth on biomass and leaf nutrition status in extreme soil conditions. own rooted cuttings of rootstocks fercal, teleki kober 5bb, georgikon 28 and four new rootstock hybrids from the breeding program of georgikon faculty, hungary (fb01, jb01, zamor 17 and szf10) were grown 3 months in pots. the 5 l pots...

experiments were conducted at the horticulture research farm of horticulture department, bangabandhu sheikh mujibur rahman agricultural university (bsmrau), salna, gazipur during december, 2007 to may, 2009 to investigate the effect of bulb cutting and potting media on propagation of hippeastrum. the bulb cutting significantly influenced all the parameters except days required to first leaf eme...

are killed by putting the pot on a hearth which will raise the inside air temperature to 60?C. (140?F.). At this temperature the inside air is hot; the bottom of the pot is very hot, but the sides are merely warm. By this time all the mosquitoes will be found dead, and the pot is removed from the hearth. The whole operation takes about fifteen minutes using a moderate fire. This method could be...

We aimed to develop alternative fishing gear for catching the common octopus, to decrease the use of bait and operating costs in comparison to commercial net pots. A tubular-type pot was designed, and behavioral responses of the common octopus were experimentally monitored in tank and replicated 10 times to compare fishing performances between 300 experimental and 300 commercial net pots in the...

Four isolates each of Bacillus and Rhizobium sp were selected and characterized for their P-solubilization and auxin production. All the isolates produced auxin but with different degree of efficacy. The isolates of Rhizobium and Bacillus having maximum auxin production and P-solubilization were selected and further evaluated for improving growth, nodulation and yield of mungbean at two fertili...

Pots (also known as traps) are baited fishing gears widely used in commercial fisheries, and are being considered as a tool for harvesting Atlantic cod (Gadus morhua) in Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada. Pots produce lower environmental impacts than many other fishing gears, but they will only be a viable fishing strategy if they are efficient and selective at catching their target species. To...
