Determination of Silt Loading Distribution Characteristics Using a Rapid Silt Loading Testing System in Tianjin, China

Velocity, Silt and Larval Drift

8768 SILT 36 (M2989).indd

A decade after the publication of the Common European Framework of Reference for languages (CEFR, Council of Europe 2001), practitioners’ relationship with this fundamental tool is still rather ambivalent and certainly not homogeneous. Very often teachers feel hesitant, asking themselves if what they are doing is consistent with the CEFR guidelines. This scenario, with some minor variations, ca...

SILT : S3 Integrity, Locking, and Transactions

Despite their limited put/get interface, simple hosted storage services are becoming very popular. Many companies and individuals are using them to store and backup data. Recent work has demonstrated that it is even possible to build file systems on top of such abstractions. However, the available API lacks some features that could prove beneficiary in building distributed storage systems on to...

Management System of Distribution Transformer Loading

This paper presents an Integrated Management System of DistributionTransformer Loading using a relational database and loss of life estimation through artificial neural networks. This fully integrated software solution allows for technical personnel to carry out studies of transformers data, such as load curves and loss of life. It permits the analysis of these results by location and substitut...

Bromoxynil degradation in a Mississippi silt loam soil.

BACKGROUND The objectives of these laboratory experiments were: (1) to assess bromoxynil sorption, mineralization, bound residue formation and extractable residue persistence in a Dundee silt loam collected from 0-2 cm and 2-10 cm depths under continuous conventional tillage and no-tillage; (2) to assess the effects of autoclaving on bromoxynil mineralization and bound residue formation; (3) to...
