The Jones underfeed stoker

Michael Stoker 1918–2013

Michael Stoker Sir Michael Stoker, a pioneer of virology and the cell biology of cancer cells, died on 13 August at the age of 95. Viruses have always been useful tools for probing the workings of cells, and Michael exploited tumor-causing viruses to gain a better understanding of oncogenic mechanisms at the dawn of the molecular biology of animal cells. During a long career, Michael not only m...

The Relationship of Stoker Burnout to the Properties of Residue

A reliable relationship of stoker performance to burnout is one which engineers and scientists will be struggling with for a fairly lengthy period of time. At the present state of the art, a minimum of knowledge is available, and it is impossible to develop any numer­ ical applications for a specific relationship. One of the most spurious shortcomings in the development of a burnout relationshi...

Numerical modeling of biomass combustion in a stoker boiler

Biomass fuel is considered a promising substitute for traditional fossil fuels. Amid a great variety of methods for converting the energy in biomass fuel into usable energy, direct combustion is still the dominant technology employed by industry. Because biomass fuel possess a much wider range of physical and chemical properties than fossil fuel, its combustion behavior is similarly diverse (an...

The Atiyah-jones Conjecture

The purpose of this note is to announce our proof of the AtiyahJones conjecture concerning the topology of the moduli spaces of based su(2)instantons over s4 . Full details and proofs appear in our paper [BHMM1].
