China-Myanmar oil & gas pipeline project covers 7,676 miles in all. The project met with complex geological conditions, construction types along the line, and long-distance oil & gas parallel laying pipeline. Because the pipeline layout and the construction are more complicated, it is necessary to make the stress analysis of oil & gas parallel laying pipeline traversing tunnels. Software CAESAR...

Essential oils on the market were analyzed using GC-MS and the main ingredients of each essential oil were quantified. Analysis of the essential oil of Lavandula officinalis (lavender oil) showed that each sample had a different ratio of the contents of main ingredients, such as linalool, linalyl acetate, and camphor. In addition, some commercial lavender oils were analyzed by GC-MS for compari...

BACKGROUND Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is an important oil crop in the world, and increasing its oil content is a major breeding goal. The studies on seed structure and characteristics of different oil content rapeseed could help us to understand the biological mechanism of lipid accumulation, and be helpful for rapeseed breeding. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS Here we report on the seed ult...

The aim of this study is to develop oil content measurement system using transmitted and scattered intensity. Two fluorescence analyses would be suggested with methods that it can use rapidly, continuously, conveniently and accurately in long-distance cruise vessels. The present paper consists of the structure of fluorescence measurement hardware and an interpretative analysis of experimental d...

Oil that has undergone biodegradation or photooxidation, contains oxygenated compounds. These compounds cannot be analysed by standard extraction and gaschromatographic methods. Conventional methods do not analyse for polar compounds and would not count them in the analytical results. Studies have shown that highly oxidized oil, including that undergoing biodegradation and photooxidation, is no...

This paper deals with three types of power transformer failure analysis tests which can help in monitoring the transformer condition. The three methods are Conventional oil test, Furan derivatives test and Markov models criteria. Conventional oil testing procedure includes determination of gas concentrations in the transformer oil sample and analyzing the fault by considering ratio of two suita...

salvia is a valuable medicinal and aromatic genus belongs to the lamiaceae family. in this study, morphological traits and essential oil content were used for the estimate of variability and to determine the relationship among different species of salvia including s. syriaca (5 ecotypes), s. virgate (8 ecotypes), s. reuterana (6 ecotypes) and s. multicaulis (6 ecotypes) collected from the south...
