At winter the problem that how to efficiently clear solid ice and snow, which always plagues the staff .The interfacial materials—solid snow-ice— cause the major operational problem related to snow removed performance. The central issue is how to evaluate the yield characteristics when the solid snow-ice was broken and fracture failure. Measurement system of freezing adhesive yield characterist...

high-density planting system is one of the effective methods for improving production and profitability of tree orchards. in this research, the effects of four planting densities (1904, 2666, 3137 and 4800 tree/ha) on annual shoot growth, tree yield, physicochemical properties of fruit and leaf mineral contents of apple (malus domestica borkh cv ‘granny smith’treegrafted on m26 clonal rootstock...

We present an ab initio approach for the computation of the magnetic susceptibility χ of insulators. The approach is applied to compute χ in diamond and in solid neon using density functional theory in the local density approximation, obtaining good agreement with experimental data. In solid neon, we predict an observable dependence of χ upon pressure. 75.20.-g, 71.15.-m, 71.15.Mb Typeset using...

A density-of-states Monte Carlo method is proposed for simulations of solid-liquid phase equilibria. A modified Wang-Landau density-of-states sampling approach is used to perform a random walk in regions of potential energy and volume relevant to solid-liquid equilibrium. The method provides a direct estimate of the relative density of states [Omega(U,V)] and thus the relative free energy withi...

The density determination of a small solid object with a mass of only a few hundred milligrams is always a difficult and often an ellusive measurement. The advent of highly accurate hydrostatic weighing techniques and the density scale based on solid objects are utilized in a two liquid float method presented here that incorporates the advantages of this technology. The resulting measurement is...

This paper investigates the performance of the errorforecasting decoding for an interleaved block code on Gilbert–Elliott channels in terms of the word-error probability, which is the sum of the decoder error and failure probabilities. We derive expressions by constructing several Markov chains, starting from a two-state Markov chain of the Gilbert–Elliott channel model. The derived formulas ar...
