A method for the extrusion of arbitrary polygon meshes is introduced. This method can be applied to model a large class of complex 3-D closed surfaces. It consists of defining a (typically small) set of connected polygons in 3-D that form a skeleton of the final object, and assigning extrusion distances to all polygons. Both sides of a polygon may have different extrusion distances. An automati...

A pilot-plant twin screw extrusion study was performed in two twice-replicated trials with the goal of producing vegetable-based protein feeds for juvenile yellow perch. Two isocaloric (3.06 kcal/g) experimental diets were balanced to contain 20% and 40% DDGS, and a constant amount (20 %) of fermented high protein soybean meal (PepSoyGen, PSG), as the fishmeal protein replacers, in combination ...

The aim of the study was to develop a suitable recipe for wheat-corn snack pellets fortified with insect flour addition and evaluate relevant processing aspects physical characteristics developed products. Varying levels edible (10, 20, 30%) were incorporated into new type pellet as half product further expansion. effects level, well variables (moisture 32, 34, 36% screw speeds 60, 80, 100 rpm)...

Epithelial cell extrusion and subsequent apoptosis is a key mechanism to prevent the accumulation of excess cells. By contrast, when driven by oncogene expression, apical cell extrusion is followed by proliferation and represents an initial step of tumorigenesis. E-cadherin (E-cad), the main component of adherens junctions, has been shown to be essential for epithelial cell extrusion, but its m...

Streptococcus faecalis, like other bacteria, accumulates potassium ions and expels sodium ions. This paper is concerned with the pathway of sodium extrusion. Earlier studies (D.L. Heefner and F.M. Harold, Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 79:2798-2802, 1982) showed that sodium extrusion is effected by a primary, ATP-linked sodium pump. I report here that cells grown under conditions in which sodium AT...

The kinetic properties of cruciform extrusion in supercoiled DNA molecules fall into two main classes. C-type cruciforms extrude in the absence of added salt, at relatively low temperatures, with large activation energies, while S-type cruciforms exhibit no extrusion in the absence of salt, and maximal rates at 50 mM NaCl, with activation energies about one quarter those of the C-type. These di...

Extrusion-cooking, as a modern and versatile processing method, may be applied to create the properties of food ingredients active components, especially beans legumes. Two varieties bean (red Toska white Aura) were extruded with twin-screw extruder under various conditions (water dosing 0.8–2.4 l h−1, screw speed 300–700 rpm). Physical (energy consumption, expansion ratio, water absorption sol...

The objectives of this study were to determine the ileal and total tract digestibility of individual fatty acids, ether extract, energy, protein, and AA in a mix of flax and field pea (FP) and to determine whether extrusion improves the nutritive value of this mix. Five barrows (23-kg initial BW) fitted with a T-cannula at the distal ileum were fed 5 diets at 3 times the maintenance energy requ...

Abstract An holistic view is attempted towards prediction of the effect residual stresses induced by full-forward extrusion on fatigue life workpieces during operation. To study constitutive model accuracy forming simulations, a combined nonlinear isotropic/kinematic hardening as well isotropic part same are calibrated based five compression-tension-compression uniaxial stress experiments. A fi...

In this paper, an analytical method for noncircular shape extrusion is presented. Using this method, non-linear deformation field can be described with Hermit cubic spline which is prescribed by the boundary conditions of the die at its entryand exit. The upper bound method has been used to obtain optimum coefficient of the tangential boundary conditions. The results show that the optimum tange...
