The distribution of Selenium (Se) in the Jurassic-Cretaceous Mist Mountain Formation of southeastern British Columbia was documented in a previous study by Ryan and Dittrick (2001). As part of that study, complete sections of rock types, including coal seams were sampled, as well as various materials segregated by mining such as coarse refuse and solid tailings from tailings ponds. Preliminary ...

Internal mist/steam blade cooling technology has been considered for the future generation of Advanced Turbine Systems (ATS). Fine water droplets of about 5 mm were carried by steam through a single slot jet onto a heated target surface in a confined channel. Experiments covered Reynolds numbers from 7500 to 25,000 and heat fluxes from 3 to 21 kW/m. The experimental results indicate that the co...

It has been found that using a segmented grinding wheel with a fluid chamber can significantly minimise the quantity of coolant while improving the ground surface integrity. The present investigation aims to explore the fluid flow mechanism in such a wheel system. To this end, the Weber theory for Newtonian jet instability was applied to quantitatively determine the contribution of coolant flow...

Dillenia pentagyna belongs to family Dilleniaceae, is commonly known as Karkat. It is small deciduous tree reaching up to the height of 10-12 m with a straight bole. The species is distributed throughout in India including Andaman & Nicobar. It is highly important medicinal tree species. Its leaves, fruits and bark show antibacterial, antialpha glucosidase and antioxidant property. Due to its h...

Metalworking fluid emulsion formulations produced from vegetable oils may be less toxic and may reduce disposal costs when compared with fluids formulated with petroleum-based oils. Experiments were performed on experimental emulsions made with unmodified and modified soybean oils to measure rates of mist production by impaction, centrifugal force and evaporation/recondensation mechanisms. Resu...

AIMS This three-arm study compared the clinical and radiographic efficacy of the modified minimally invasive surgical technique (M-MIST) alone and combined with enamel matrix derivative (EMD) or EMD plus bone mineral derived xenograph (BMDX), in the treatment of isolated, inter-dental intra-bony defects. MATERIALS AND METHODS Forty-five deep isolated intra-bony defects in 45 patients were inc...

original paper   the mass-transfer media plays a significant role on the performance of a packed tower. in this paper three counter-current single-stage packed towers at laboratory scale, randomly packed with two different sizes of two types of packing material were experimentally tested to study the role of the packing on the performance of them in the removal of sulfuric acid mists. gas sampl...

BACKGROUND Minor impact soft tissue (MIST) is an insurance industry concept that seeks to identify late whiplash as a psychosocial phenomenon. However, the medical literature in this area has not been systematically reviewed since the Quebec Task Force's review in 1995. OBJECTIVE To review the medical literature which claims that late whiplash is an organic phenomenon causing significant disa...

In smartcard encryption and signature applications, randomised algorithms are used to increase tamper resistance against attacks based on side channel leakage. Mist is one of these. As is the case with the classical m-ary and sliding windows exponentiation algorithms, the most significant half of the public modulus yields information which can be used to halve the number of key digits which nee...
