on to a heavy wooden mill which is revolved by the bulls moving in a circle round the mill. The old man was bending over the crushing blocks to remove sugar-cane debris when his long hair got undone and was caught in the mill. The bulls continued to move round in a circle which resulted in his hair being wound into the mill. He was dragged round the mill and fruitlessly tugged to get free. His ...

Ball mill is vital equipment in industries viz. mineral dressing, ore processing, fertilizers, food and diary, pharmaceuticals and many others. The present work involves a meticulous study of the effect of the various parameters on the performance of a ball mill. The parameters studied in this work are particle size, number of balls, time of grinding, particle density, and speed of the ball mil...

Neuromodulation is well known to provide plasticity in pattern generating circuits, but few details are available concerning modulation of motor pattern coordination. We are using the crustacean stomatogastric nervous system to examine how co-expressed rhythms are modulated to regulate frequency and maintain coordination. The system produces two related motor patterns, the gastric mill rhythm t...

Reforestation with native and non-native tree species is one of the most effective strategies to cope climate change, also management method for solving soil erosion problems in degraded forests around world. The current research investigates three skid trails, which were planted clearcutting areas, comparison a natural forest hornbeam (CB; Carpinus betulus L.) velvet maple (AV; Acer velutinum ...

In order to achieve high performance and efficiency of coal-fired power plants, it is highly important to control the coal flow into the boiler in the power plant. This means suppression of disturbances and force the coal mill to deliver the required coal flow, as well as monitor the coal mill in order to detect faults in the coal mill when they emerge. This paper deals with the second objectiv...

nano fillers are part of new studies to enhance various properties of fluids and solids. for example, adding nanoparticles as an enforcement in nanocomposites or as an additive to improve thermal or electrical properties in nano-fluids are of extreme importance in science and industry. there are numerous methods to uniformly disperse nanoparticles in fluid and solid phase. one of the well-used ...
