one method of seed placement into the soil as regards no-till system is the use of punch planting by which one can plant through a considerable depth of surface residue. the study was conducted using a 2?3 split-plot experimental design of three replications. the factors considered were two types of plantes (conventional planter vs. hinging pneumatic punch planter) and three levels of wheat res...

the effects of soil tillage methods and residue management were studied at miandoab agriculure station during 2003-2005. the experiment design was split block with the main plots devoted to residual management strategies (burning residue, crushing residue by disk, no treatment). subplots were tillage methods (moldboard plowing to 20-25 cm in fall, moldboard plowing to 20-25 cm in spring, moldbo...

Problem statement: Natural weathering is the most economic method of treatment in order to reduce the release of heavy metals present in the residue. Approach: The aim of the study was to optimize the minimum weathering times that were useful to reduce the lead release to within the Italian limits for landfill disposal. The mechanism of short-term weathering of MSWI bottom ash had been studied ...

The behaviour of alkali metals, especially of potassium, during circulating fluidised bed combustion of wood-based fuels was studied experimentally in pilot-scale and industrial scale combustors. The fuels included willow, forest residue and waste wood co-combusted with paper mill sludge. As a result of this work, the main chemical and physical transformation mechanisms of potassium compounds i...

leaving crop residues on the soil surface may significantly affect the behavior and activity of herbicides. in order to study the effect of wheat residue and different rates of trifluralin (%48 ec) herbicide on the yield and oil content of sunflower (helianthus annuus) a field experiment was done in agricultural research station, the university of birjand in summer 2008. experimental design was...

We present an exposition of the basic properties of the Jacobi symbol, with a method of calculating it due to Eisenstein. Fix a prime p. For an integer a relatively prime to p the Legendre symbol is defined by (a/p) = 1 if a is a quadratic residue (mod p) and (a/p) =−1 if a is a quadratic nonresidue (mod p). We recall Euler’s theorem that (a/p) ≡ a(p−1)/2 (mod p). We have the famous Law of Quad...

Duadic codes were introduced by Leon et al. [5] as cyclic codes generalizing quadratic residue codes. Brualdi and Pless generalized them to polyadic cyclic codes [2] and Rushanan did so to duadic Abelian group codes [9]. Theorems concerning the existence of these codes in terms of field and group restrictions have been proved during this development, beginning with the one of Smid for cyclic du...
