This paper investigates the synergetic control strategy for water hammer wave and mass in hydropower station with downstream channel. Firstly, mathematical model of channel (HSDC) surge tank (HSDCST) are established. Then, controller formula HSDC HSDCST derived on basis theory. Furthermore, it is parsed that dynamic characteristics to various disturbances under strategy. Finally, robustness app...

We develop an inventory model to determine optimal ordering policy under permissible delay in payment by considering demand rate to be stock dependent. Mathematical models are derived under two different cases: credit period being greater than or equal to cycle time for settling the account, and credit period being less than or equal to cycle time for settling the account. The results are illus...

The performance metric for tank cars and other hazardous materials vehicles involved in accidents has generally been conditional probability of release given involvement in an accident. This metric considers the probability of a release event occurring but does not take into account the quantity of product lost in a release incident. In this paper, a new metric termed “release risk” is introduc...

in this research work, the parameters affecting the settling velocity within the thickeners were studied by introducing an equivalent shape factor. several thickener feed samples of different densities including copper, lead and zinc, and coal were prepared. the settling tests were performed on the samples, and the corresponding settling curves were plotted. using the linear regression analysis...

in addition to increment of the vehicle sprung mass, the main physical effects of addition of cng tank to the vehicle are the longitudinal and height displacement of center of gravity, which have the most influences on the handling, braking, roll stability and spin stability of the vehicle. increment of cng tank mass to the sprung mass of the vehicle increases the vehicle under-steer gradient, ...

knowledge of fluid flow can play a basic role in optimizing mixing processes. in preparation of sodium perborate, sodium metaborate and hydrogen peroxide, as raw materials, mix and react in the presence of a turbine mixer. in this investigation, the effect of the presence of baffle in a mixing tank equipped with a two-impeller turbine agitator was studied. at first, steady state flow in the tan...

The differentiation of bone-resorbing osteoclasts is induced by RANKL signaling, and leads to the activation of NF-κB via TRAF6 activation. TRAF family member-associated NF-κB activator (TANK) acts as a negative regulator of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) and B-cell receptor (BCR) signaling by inhibiting TRAF6 activation. Tank(-/-) mice spontaneously develop autoimmune glomerular nephritis in an IL...

Density interfaces in the water column are ubiquitously found in oceans and lakes. Interaction of settling particles with pycnoclines plays a pivotal function in nutrient transport between ocean layers and settling rates of marine particles. We perform direct numerical simulations of an elongated particle settling through a density interface and scrutinize the role of stratification on the sett...

The aim of this study was to understand the efficacy widely available minerals as dual-function adsorbers and weighter materials, for removal toxic azo-type textile dyes when combined with coprecipitation processes. Specifically, adsorption an anionic direct dye measured on various mineral types without secondary coagulation iron hydroxide (‘FeOOH’) in both a bench-scale stirred tank, well inno...

We analyse high-resolution archival UVES data of turnoff and subgiant stars in the nearby globular cluster NGC6397 ([Fe/H]≈−2). Balmer-profile analyses are performed to derive reddening-free effective temperatures. Due to the limited S/N and uncertainties related to blaze removal, we find the data quality insufficient to exclude the existence of gravitational settling. If the newly derived effe...
