The loss of fats in the hulls is one main obstacles limiting industrial implementation rapeseed dehulling. reason resides shape outer cotyledons which resemble to hulls’ and make it difficult separate. purpose this study propose a new method for purification hulls. After primary separation by aspiration, mixture kernels passed between pair flat rolls where are flattened stick metal while do not...

Few studies have assessed how ploidy type within a species affects genetic variation among populations in relation to source climates. Basin wildrye (Leymus cinereus (Scribn. & Merr.) A. Love) is a large bunchgrass common in the intermountain Western U.S. found in both octoploid and tetraploid types. In common gardens at two sites over two years differences in both ploidy type and genetic varia...

Plastic composite supports containing 50% agricultural products (oat hulls, soybean hulls, yeast extract, soybean flour, dried bovine erythrocytes, bovine albumin, and/or mineral salts) and 50% (wt/wt) polypropylene were produced by high-temperature twin-screw extrusion. The research employed two half sets of a five-factorial fractional design (2(5 - 1)) to evaluate the effects of different agr...

To study the effect of shock wave load on body elements vehicles, a setting has been developed that takes into account mobile nature this load. A specialized parametric finite-element model layout created armored-carrier, taking peculiarities studied process. The problem determining stress-strain state armored-hulls solved in static and dynamic formulation. space-time distributions components c...

We calculate the metric on the D-brane vacuum moduli space for backgrounds of the form C 3 /Γ for cyclic groups Γ. In the simplest procedure — starting with a flat " seed " metric on the covering space — we find that the resulting D-brane metric is not Ricci-flat. We argue that this is likely to be true of the true 0-brane metric at weak string coupling.

In a digital multimedia era, the security of multimedia over network transmission becomes a challenging issue. A strategy, combining cryptography with steganography, is investigated to overcome the problems in hand. This paper proposes hiding secret messages, represented as a binary image, by covering a binary random texture synthesized from a 2D Ising Markov random field with an authorized RSA...

Disturbance plays a key role in driving ecological responses by creating opportunities for new ecological communities to assemble and by directly influencing the outcomes of assembly. Legacy effects (such as seed banks) and environmental filters can both influence community assembly, but their effects are impossible to separate with observational data. Here, we used seeding experiments in sites...

Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is one of most important oilseed crops in the world. There are now various rapeseed cultivars in nature that differ in their seed oil content because they vary in oil-content alleles and there are high-oil alleles among the high-oil rapeseed cultivars. For these experiments, we generated doubled haploid (DH) lines derived from the cross between the specially high-oi...

Jatropha hulls were successfully for the first time used as raw materials for the production of 2,3-butanediol via dilute sulfuric acid hydrolysis and fermentation with Klebsiella oxytoca. Two-step hydrolysis was used to effectively hydrolyze the hulls at 150°C after pretreatment. In the first-step, hemicellulose was hydrolyzed under mild conditions (0.5h, 1.5% acid) to avoid secondary decompos...

[1] The channel network (S) is a nonconvex set, while its basin [C(S)] is convex. We remove open-end points of the channel connectivity network iteratively to generate a traveltime sequence of networks (Sn). The convex hulls of these traveltime networks provide an interesting topological quantity, which has not been noted thus far. We compute lengths of shrinking traveltime networks L(Sn) and a...
