the rotor of enegelberg whitener was equipped with a screw conveyor to reduce broken rice percentage. according to preliminary experiments this modification could reduce broken rice percentage about 2.5%. further experiment was performed to determine the effect of rotor speeds and blade positions on white rice quality. to do this, five rotor speeds, consisting 500, 600, 700, 800 and 900 r.p.m a...

Explaining away has mostly been considered in terms of inference of states in belief networks. We show how it can also arise in a Bayesian context in inference about the weights governing relationships such as those between stimuli and reinforcers in conditioning experiments such as backward blocking. We show how explaining away in weight space can be accounted for using an extension of a Kalma...

in order to help in the engineering design of rice harvesting machines, there is a need to have exact information concerning the physical and mechanical properties of rice stems. the cutting force for rice stems, therefore, was measured by designing and fabricating a static and dynamic shear test apparatus. the effects of moisture levels and the cross-sectional area of stem as well as the varie...

Michelia alba (Magnolioceae) has been used as a source of essential oils and traditional medicine. This study aims to explain the botany, utilization, bioactivity oil M. alba. The research was conducted with literature studies obtained from Google Scholar using keywords alba, oil. results are synthesized so that they explained comprehensively about In medicine it is treat fever, syphilis, gonor...

Improving the efficiency of compressors has been one of the most important goals of researchers over the years. In this paper, three different methods are presented for parameterization and blade optimization of axial flow compressor. All methods consist of flow analysis tool, optimization algorithms, and parametric geometry generation tool, that are different in each approach. Objective functi...
