In the present work, existing Indian elastic rail clip steel (tempered martensite) is microstructurally modified to bainite using austempering route. Crevice corrosion of (ERC) major concern as metal dissolution can cause loosening assembly (such clipinsert and clipliner) lack performance. Furthermore, surface exposed atmosphere could also be affected by corrosive environment. The work concentr...

diatomaceous earth (de) is a dust composed of fossilized bodies of unicellular algae used as an insecticide. in this study, the insecticidal potential of four iranian de deposits was assessed in adults of oryzaephilus surinamensis (l.). three of de deposits were collected from maragheh, mamaghan, and khorasan jonoobi mines and sayan® formulation was obtained from kimia sabz avar company. the in...

lipid oxidation was studied in m. longissimusdorsiand m. semimembranosusin male lambs of northeastern bulgarian fine wool breed and cross of this breed with ile de france, reared indoors and on pasture. the oxidation of the lipids was determined by quantification of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (tbars), formed during the storage of the muscles at 4 ˚с until 6th dayand -20 ˚с until 90...

renewable energy sources (res), especially wind power plants, have high priority of promotion in the energy policies worldwide. an increasing share of res and distributed generation (dg), should, as has been assumed, provide improvement in reliability of electricity delivery to the customers. paper presented here concentrates on electricity storage systems technologies and applications pinpoint...

the effect of different storage temperatures on senescence and postharvest performance in cut scapes of three iris species (iris germanica, iris reticulata and iris kashmiriana) was studied with the aim to develop a cost-effective storage protocol so as to bring out the transportation of these cut flowers. the scapes were subjected to two different storage treatments-dry storage and wet storage...

Storage conditions of oil seeds before industrial extraction might influence the quality of the crude oil. The aim of present study was to clarify the storage able potency of high and low oleic cultivars of sunflower based on oil and fatty acid changes of seeds and their viability. The seed samples of four sunflower cultivars (two high oleic and two low oleic) were stored in three different tem...
