There is a large body of research devoted to hunting lions in the Sahara Desert [2]. In none of these, however, is any concern given to feeding the lion once it is captured. In this note, we propose feeding Stan Wagon to the lion. Place an orange in the middle of the Sahara Desert. Cut it up into a finite number of pieces and rearrange the pieces to form the Sun. The gravity of the Sun will the...

Primary productivity, Secchi disc visibility, chlorophyll, and nutrient concentrations were studied in Wagon Train and Stagecoach reservoirs during the years 1969 and 1970. The reservoirs are separated by a distance of only 12 km and are similar in nutrient content and circulation pattern. Furthermore, in both reservoirs 92-100% of the productivity occurs in the upper two meiers. However, the r...

In movies or on TV, a wheel can seem to rotate backwards, due to the temporal subsampling inherent in the recording process (the wagon wheel illusion). Surprisingly, this effect has also been reported under continuous light, suggesting that our visual system, too, might sample motion in discrete "snapshots." Recently, these results and their interpretation have been challenged. Here, we investi...

The fact that a perceptual experience akin to the familiar wagon-wheel illusion in movies and on TV can occur in the absence of stroboscopic presentation is intriguing because of its relevance to visuo-temporal parsing. The wagon-wheel effect in continuous light has also been the source of considerable misunderstanding and dispute, as is apparent in a series of recent papers. Here we review thi...

Original scientific paper This paper presents the S-N approach to fatigue failure analysis of welded joints that integrates well with finite element modelling. Goodman's criterion and fatigue criterion based on the equivalent stress range were used for the analysis of the fatigue failure. Goodman's criterion and fatigue criterion based on the equivalent stress range, for determining fatigue saf...

Central Appalachia residents present unique healthcare challenges. This vulnerable population faces poor health status and low access to health care. 'The Health Wagon' was established to innovatively enhance access to health care for the poor and marginalized rural population of Central Appalachia. This article describes the operations of the Health Wagon, a full mobile medical clinic, in deli...

The wagon flow scheduling plays a very important role in transportation activities in railway bureau. However, it is difficult to implement in the actual decision-making process of wagon flow scheduling that compiled under certain environment, because of the interferences of uncertain information, such as train arrival time, train classify time, train assemble time, and flexible trainsize limit...

An articulated covered wagon design was developed. The feature is that the body-bearing elements are made of circular pipes. This technical solution it possible to reduce tare weight while ensuring strength conditions. Mathematical simulation dynamic loading developed carried out under main operating In calculations observed quantities, an application symmetry with regard longitudinal axis used...
