High-quality, diagnostic equine dental radiographs can be taken under field conditions by using portable X-ray equipment. Utilizing a stand to support the head of the sedated horse and X-ray cassette, repeatable motionless films can be taken. Holding the horse’s mouth open with a PVC pipe gag brings the upper and lower cheek teeth out of occlusion and decreases superimposition of the arcades. A...

This work presents a novel vision-force based interface; allowing a local operator to visually specify a path constraint to a remote robot manipulator. By using our interface the operator is able to control a 7-DOF arm with only 2-DOF. Our interface aims to reduce task complexity and operator cognitive load. We illustrate our approach with 2 mock-up examples: 1) Closing a steam valve, 2) Gluing...

<p>The installation of clean water is a very important building component to support<br />the activities residents in the building, because this provider of<br />water needs for occupants carry out bathing, washing, cooking activities,<br />and so on. In planning system, four criteria must be met,<br />namely: Sufficient quantity, Hygienic, Optimal technical, and E...

Abstract This study was conducted to investigate the implications of pipe length on water discharge and headloss in clean installations Klampok hamlet, Indonesia. Three residential houses were selected as research sites, each equipped with a 2-inch diameter PVC type pump power 3.6 housepower. The goal measure discharge, major minor headloss, flow pattern within these installations. Results reve...

This study aims to determine the effect of use 12 mm Netafim (NTF) pipe and ” pvc on a multilevel drip irrigation network, ability uniformity distribution polybag land. The test was carried out variations in tower water heights 220 cm, 120 cm 30 lateral pipe, data analysis (CU), volume at each network level. research conducted land area 1.5 m x 4 2 m, distance between level is 1 height 2.5 m. B...

This paper mainly uses the method of model test to study ultimate uplift bearing characteristics a single pile with different length-to-diameter ratios, from distribution laws capacity pile, axial force and side friction perform analysis. The is made PVC pipe, resistance strain gauges are attached both sides pipe. value pipe under load conditions measured obtain working behavior during process ...

Biofilm formation, loose deposit accumulation and water quality deterioration in drinking water distribution systems have been widely reported. However, the accumulation and distribution of harbored elements and microbes in the different niches (loose deposits, PVC-U biofilm, and HDPE biofilm) and their corresponding potential contribution to water quality deterioration remain unknown. This pre...

A new technique for sensing turbulence in single-phase fluid flow by pulsed ultrasound is developed. The velocity component of turbulence perpendicular to the flow axis is sensed by two ultrasonic transducers mounted diametrically opposite on the pipe. The technique facilitates detecting variations in time of flight of two ultrasonic pulses transmitted simultaneously in the opposite directions ...

In this work the electrostatics of the pneumatic conveying of granular materials in a non-conducting (PVC) vertical pipe is studied using Electrical Capacitance Tomography (ECT) system. The non-conducting wall in general attains static charges arising from particle-wall collisions in the initial periods of conveying process and then reaches equilibrium with the surroundings. The polarity of par...
