in this study an empirical model which can be used to predict the rutting parameter (g*/sinδ) for neat and powder rubber modified bitumen describes. the model was developed using 36 unique powder rubber modified bitumen combinations, rubber concentrations were varied at 5% intervals between 5 and 20%. the effects of powder rubber particle size on model accuracy were also studied ultimately a mo...

The aim of the study was to investigate the effect of tail-docking on the LH pulse frequency in femaleTuj lambs. Twelve female lambs were assigned into two equal groups. A rubber ring was applied to the baseof the tail for shedding off. Blood samples were collected for 8 h in the 4th and 8th months of age todetermine pulsatile secretion of LH. Starting from the age of 6 months, blood samples we...

SINCE the introduction of artificial heart valves, investigators have been continuously modifying them, endeavoring to eliminate complications associated with their use. -3 The Starr-Edwards ball-valve prosthesis was the first to be widely accepted; however, problems due to its weight, cage size, and resistance to blood flow have stimulated the search for a better prosthetic device. In spite of...

in this note we introduce the notion of weak mccoy rings as a generalization of mccoy rings, and investigate their properties. also we show that, if is a semi-commutative ring, then is weak mccoy if and only if is weak mccoy.

78 Ghezel and 76 Mehraban sheep were used to evaluate the effect of fat-tail docking on reproductive performance. Within two days after birth the tails of 32 Ghezel female lambs and 28 Mehraban female lambs were docked using a tight rubber ring. The lambs were allowed to reproduce for three lambing opportunities and their reproductive performances were evaluated. The effect of docking on the fe...

Abstract The rubber seal structure is used extensively in mechanical devices, long-term use may bring major safety hazards and economic losses. In order to ensure the healthy operation of machinery equipment, it necessary test aging condition sealing nondestructive online. address problem unsteady vibration signals, a complex nonstationary signal degraded into sum multiple product functions by ...
