assessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea
data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...
The effect of tilt on sediment trap efficiency
-Cylindrical traps with an aspect ratio of 5.2 were tilted from 0 ° to 70 ° upstream and downstream in the Hudson River with currents ranging between 2 and 62 cm s -~. Particle flux in the tilted traps increased with tilt up to about 45 ° where overcollection reached a maximum factor of three but decreased beyond 45 ° when traps were tilted downstream. There was no discernible velocity effect o...
متن کاملThe Effect of Brine on the Collection Efficiency of Cylindrical Sediment Traps
ent traps are frequently used to measure the downward flux of particles in the protocols recommend filling these traps with brine (50 psu in excess of ambient) to better retain the collected sample. However, this also changes the aspect ratio ritical parameter affecting the trapping effkiency. We conducted controlled flume that demonstrate filling traps with a 5 psu brine decreases their trappi...
متن کاملEfficiency of antlion trap construction.
Assessing the architectural optimality of animal constructions is in most cases extremely difficult, but is feasible for antlion larvae, which dig simple pits in sand to catch ants. Slope angle, conicity and the distance between the head and the trap bottom, known as off-centring, were measured using a precise scanning device. Complete attack sequences in the same pits were then quantified, wit...
