The effect of reapportionment in Harris Coutny and across Texas was explained by Miss Barbara Jordan at the f i r s t meeting of the Rice Young Democrats last week. Miss Jordan, a local attorney, explained that, "For the f irst time in Texas, we are going to have legislators who represent people, not cattle." The state legislature's courtordered redisricting plan will end rural domination of Te...

By theoretically analyzing dynamic behavior of the crankshaft, the rolling piston and the blade inrolling-piston rotary compressors, constraint forces and sliding speed at each pair of movable machine elements were obtained, and unbalanced inertia forces and compressor vibrations were evaluated. It was concluded that theoretical results have a goodagreement with experimental ones. Moreover, it ...

We consider the reactive Boussinesq equations in a slanted cylinder, with zero stress boundary conditions and arbitrary Rayleigh number. We show that the equations have non-planar traveling front solutions that propagate at a constant speed. We also establish uniform upper bounds on the burning rate and the flow velocity for general front-like initial data for the Cauchy problem.

We consider the Stokes-Boussinesq equations in a slanted (that is, not aligned with gravity’s direction) cylinder of any dimension and with an arbitrary Rayleigh number. We prove the existence of a non-planar traveling wave solution, propagating at a constant speed, and satisfying the Dirichlet boundary condition in the velocity and the Neumann condition in the temperature.

We show that rapidly rotating cylinders sliding on smooth surfaces can exhibit novel trajectories. The lateral deflection can be as large as the net displacement in the initial direction of motion. With a large enough initial angular speed, the cylinder can trace out a spiral trajectory having a large number of loops. An exact analytical result for large lateral deflection is also derived.

The compensation hole of the automobile brake master cylinder is an important structural part for adjusting reservoir and pressure chamber cylinder. Its detection accuracy strictly controlled. However, because located on inner wall blind hole, existing method cannot meet testing needs. Therefore, this paper introduces SSD model into cylinder, realizes rapid positioning by means network fine-tun...

Some mechanical and process parameters of a developed millet thresher have been optimized using numerical optimization technique. The machine threshes panicles cleans the grains from straw. speed threshing number pegs attached to drum were investigated, while moisture content was parameter under investigation. Threshing efficiency, cleaning percentage losses used as performance characteristics ...

in this paper, a numerical study is performed to provide the combustion and emission characteristics resulting from fuel-reactivity controlled compression ignition (rcci) combustion mode in a heavy-duty, single-cylinder diesel engine with gasoline and diesel fuels. in rcci strategy in-cylinder fuel blending is used to develop fuel reactivity gradients in the combustion chamber that result in a ...
