measuring field gravity in sea due to the accelerations introduced via waves and movements to the gravity measuring systems has a low accuracy since according to einstein's equalent principle, gravimeter isn't able to separate the gravity acceleration from another acceleration. ship borne gravimetery observations by means of like oscillations and accelerations of the ship motion, and ...

Waste Low density polyethylenes (LDPE) represent a source of energy and valuablechemicals, were pyrolysed catalytically in a batch reactor under atmospheric pressure. Calciumcarbide was used as a catalyst to explore its effect on pyrolysis product distribution. The effect oftemperature, amount of catalyst and time on the yields of the pyrolysed products wasinvestigated. The effect of catalyst o...

The mean retention time (MRT) of stained hay through the whole digestive tract and its digestibility were measured in Japanese sika deer (Cervus nippon) and were compared with those in sheep when lucerne (Medicago sativa) hay was fed at 10, 20 and 30 g/kg body-weight. The recoveries in faeces of plastic particles with five specific gravities were also measured in deer. MRT for deer was signific...

More than 1.15 million cubic meters (1.5 million cubic yards) of sediment require annual removal from harbors and ports along Ohio's Lake Erie coast. Disposing of these materials into landfills depletes land resources, while open water placement of these materials deteriorates water quality. There are more than 14,000 acres of revitalizing brownfields in Cleveland, U.S., many containing up to 9...

The eucalypts as a group are attractive because of their rapid growth. This results in very high yields on a volume basis and in combination with the comparatively high specific gravities, the yields of dry fiber can be truly impressive. Maximum yield of dry fiber is the logical goal when the anticipated use is for fuel, or as a chemical feedstock for processes such as destructive distil­ latio...

A low cost perspex buffer rod design for the measurement of specific gravity during the processing of industrial food batters is reported. Operation was conducted in pulsed mode using a 2.25MHz, 15mm diameter transducer and the intensity and an analytic calibration curve relating buffer rod output to specific gravity is obtained. The probe design may have application to other similar mixtures o...

Gravity data inversion is one of the important steps in the interpretation of practical gravity data. The inversion result can be obtained by minimization of the Tikhonov objective function. The determination of an optimal regularization parameter is highly important in the gravity data inversion. In this work, an attempt was made to use the active constrain balancing (ACB) method to select the...

The object of this investigation was to find out how far this method could be employed usefully in India Command in place of the usual haematocrit technique, which requires equipment not always available. Assessments of mean corpuscular volume based on an inspection of dry. blood films or of the cells in the counting chamber cannot be expressed in figures, and it has thus been difficult to obta...
