earthquakes in urban areas leave behind a considerable amount of debris, which delays the relief services and the reconstruction activities. the relief work would be impossible without the removal of debris from the main access roads to the devastated areas. the proper implementation of this endeavor requires a long-term management of debris. this article discusses development of strategic mana...

The aim of this study was to determine and compare in situ biohydrogenation (BH) fatty acids in three forms of soybeans and linseed (raw, extruded and roasted). Nylon bags (5×10 cm) containing 4 g of raw, extruded or roasted soybeans or raw, extruded or roasted linseed were incubated in the rumen of fistulated ewes for 4, 8, 12 and 24 hours. Results for linoleic acid (C18:2) showed tha...

limited data exist about the production of extruded linseed as a feed ingredient in farm animal nutrition. the objective of this study was to produce and evaluate extruded linseed mixed with alfalfa hay, pistachio by-products, and sugar beet pulp or corn grain in different proportions of linseed: alfalfa hay: pistachio by-products at ratios of 70:15:15, 70:20:10, 70:10:20, and 80:10:10 for qual...

an experiment was conducted to examine the effect of different levels of extruded soybean and enzyme on broiler performance. in a completely randomized design with 2×3 factorial arrangement, 480 one day-old, ross broiler chickens were divided into 40 groups, 12 chicks per pen. treatments were consisting of combination of four levels of extruded soybean (0.0, 5.0, 10.0 and 15.0 %) and two levels...

A series of feeding experiments were undertaken with weaner cattle to assess the effects on liveweight performance of supplementing a basal diet of molasses, urea and roughage with various protein and energy supplements. The supplements included extruded soyabeans, a mixture of extruded soyabean and crushed maize grain, or soyabean and crushed maize extruded together. These experiments indicate...

We present a generic algorithm for numbering and then efficiently iterating over the data values attached to an extruded mesh. An extruded mesh is formed by replicating an existing mesh, assumed to be unstructured, to form layers of prismatic cells. Applications of extruded meshes include, but are not limited to, the representation of 3D high aspect ratio domains employed by geophysical finite ...

compared with usa, uk, brazil, indonesia, australia, etc., marine debris research in china has received less attention and few studies have attempted to quantify the abundance and mass of marine debris. in this paper, the abundance, composition and source of beached marine debris, and debris collection system and frequency as well as dustbins’ conditionwere investigated in duodaohai, wanpingkou...

This paper examines the room-temperature microstructure and mechanical properties of dispersion-strengthened-cast magnesium (DSC-Mg) containing 30 vol.% of 0.33 mm yttria dispersoids. The dispersoids are reasonably well distributed in both cast and extruded materials and the extruded matrix grains size is about 0.88 mm, in agreement with existing models on grain pinning. The Young’s modulus mea...

a numerical model for two-phase debris flows is developed in this paper, on the basis of understanding of the physical characteristics of debris flows from field investigations and experiments. employing a moving coordinate, the kinetic energy equation of gravel particles in unit volume in debris flow is developed by considering the potential energy of the particles, energy from the liquid phas...
