Andrews's recent proof of the Mills-Robbins-Rumsey conjectured formula for the number of totally symmetric self-complementary plane partitions is used to derive a new multi-variate constant term identity, reminiscent of, but not implied by, Macdonald's BC,-Dyson identity. The method of proof consists in translating to the language of constant terms an expression of Doran for the desired number ...

Around 40% of electricity in the UK is currently generated by coal-fired power stations. Coal-fired power stations nowadays are required to operate more flexibly with more varied coal specifications and regularly use coal with higher volatile contents and biomass materials; this can increase the risks of pressurisation or fires in milling plants. The power stations are also obliged to vary thei...

Generally, crash stops are performed to obtain measurement of charge filling and slurry loading. The crash stop involves running the mill under steady state then cutting off all feed streams to the mill as it is being stopped. Sufficient time is required to obtain all the important measurements correctly during the crash stop. The mill filling should be measured at a minimum of 3 points along t...

Rhythmically active motor circuits are influenced by neuronally released and circulating hormone modulators, but there are few systems in which the influence of a peptide hormone modulator on a neuronally modulated motor circuit has been determined. We performed such an analysis in the isolated crab stomatogastric nervous system by assessing the influence of the hormone crustacean cardioactive ...

Neuromodulation changes the cellular and synaptic properties of neurons, thereby enabling individual neuronal circuits to generate multiple activity patterns. However, distinct modulatory inputs could conceivably also cona different motor circuits to generate similar activity patterns. Using the isolated stomatogastric ganglion (STG) of the crab Cancer borealis, we showed previously that pyroki...

in this study, pyrite was produced by hydrothermal precipitation from the reaction between feso4 and na2s2o3 at high pressure and high temperature in a stirred reactor. the solid product was purified by means of solvent extraction to remove sulfur. powder was characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and thermal analyses. results indicated that pyrite was prod...

multiphase impeller stirred tank reactors enhance mixing of reacting species used in a variety of chemical industries. these reactors have been studied based on computational fluid dynamics (cfd) that can be used in the analysis, design and scale up of these reactors. most of the researches done in this area are limited to single phase reactors, and a few remaining two phase flow investigations...

In this paper an analysis is done on the main drive of rolling mill which consumes about 60 to 70 % of total energy of the plant. The existing rolling mill in India are using the 3 phase induction motor and flywheel to drive the rolling mill. The electric motor transmits the power to flywheel with the help of V-belt. An attempt has made after analysis of existing mill that by using some soft st...

For a given fiber spun to a pre-determined yarn specification, the spinning performance of the yarn usually varies from mill to mill. For this reason, it is necessary to develop an empirical model that can encompass all known processing variables that exist in different spinning mills and then to generalize this information and be able to accurately predict yarn quality for an individual mill. ...
