Objectives: Almond (Prunus amygdalus) hull and shell are agricultural by-products that are a source of phenolic compounds.The processing of almond produce shell and hull, accounts for more than 50% by dry weight of the almond fruits. Recently, more studies have focused on the influence of storage conditions and postharvest handling on the nutritional quality of fruits, especially the antioxidan...

The demand for larger passenger capacity and more entertainment facilities has led to the rapid growth of cruise tourism market. superstructure ships is designed be plumper, with numerous decks complex structural forms. To control weight center gravity, bending stiffness always weaker than that main hull, resulting in a step. Currently, there no satisfactory method accurately estimate influence...

Proton computed tomography (pCT) is a novel imaging modality developed for patients receiving proton radiation therapy. The purpose of this work was to investigate hull-detection algorithms used for preconditioning of the large and sparse linear system of equations that needs to be solved for pCT image reconstruction. The hull-detection algorithms investigated here included silhouette/space car...

barley is a kind of cereal that contains high amounts of β-glucan. β-glucan is a major component of soluble fiber implicated in hypocholesterolemia, hypoglycemia, diabetes and heart attacks. investigations show that hull-less barley has more β-glucan than hulled barley. in this study the physical and chemical properties of hull-less barley (ehds 18), wheat (zarrin) varitiese, barley flour, and ...

in this research, chemical composition, gas production characteristics, effective degradability and nutritive value index (nvi) of dm and cp by in situ method of treated walnut hull by nurospora sitophila were studied. three fistulated kermani ram were used for determination of walnut hull degradability. data were analysed using completely randomize design. by processing walnut hull with neuros...

Bounding hull, such as convex hull, concave hull, alpha shapes etc. has vast applications in different areas especially in computational geometry. Alpha shape and concave hull are generalizations of convex hull. Unlike the convex hull, they construct non-convex enclosure on a set of points. In this paper, we introduce another generalization of convex hull, named alpha-concave hull, and compare ...

in order to study the effects of four concentrations (check, 5, 10 and 15%) of hull extracts on growth of 10 iranian rice cultivars, two experiments were conducted in completely randomized block design with factorial arrangement and three replications at two sites, laboratory and greenhouse. laboratory study showed that same rice hull extracts had stimulat effects and the others had inhibitory ...
