Sandvik SRP has earlier studied a new way of calculating the cost in crushing and screening the results was a satisfactory, Sandvik SRP is now ready to go further in this study. The purpose of this study is further develop of the earlier adopted generic cost model earlier developed by Heyman and Lindström in order to calculate the cost per metric ton within the world of crushing and screening. By
This report contains CFD-simulations of a tunnel fire in a scaled down road tunnel, 1:8, with the CFD-code FDS. FDS and its different sub models are evaluated by different configurations of grid nets, the radiation model and slight changes in the material database and the results with respect to temperature and u-velocity are compared to each other. Comparisons of the gain and loss in time by usin
The usage of industrial robots for milling tasks is limited by their lack of absolute accuracy in presence of process forces. While there are techniques and products available for increasing the absolute accuracy of free-space motions, the mechanical weaknesses of the robot in combination with the milling forces limits the achievable performance. If the dynamic effects causing the deviations can b
The distribution of serotonin-like and FMRFamide-like immunoreactive (5HT-ir and FMRFa-ir, respectively) neurons in the nervous system of the chiton Lepidopleurus asellus (Mollusca, Polyplacophora) was studied using an immunocytochemical technique. The neurons were distributed in characteristic patterns in the central nervous system, the 5HT-ir neurons predominating in the ventral (pedal) cords an
Noninvasive localization of the accessory pathway (AP) in patients with the Wolff-Parkinson-White syndrome and of the site of origin of ventricular tachycardia (VT) is reviewed. 12-lead electrocardiography (ECG) is the most readily available method for localization of both the AP and the site of VT origin. Many published ECG criteria are introduced. The application of body surface potential mappin
Mass extinction events are recognized by increases in extinction rate and magnitude and, often, by changes in the selectivity of extinction. When considering the selective fingerprint of a particular event, not all taxon extinctions are equally informative: some would be expected even under a ‘background’ selectivity regime, whereas others would not and thus require special explanation. When evalu
Ganga River system is a life support system to sustain the people of northeast region, India, by providing freshwater resource. In this study, the seasonal heavy metal concentrations of Ganga River system at Haridwar region (India) have been characterised for metal pollution. The collection of water samples was done from 10 different locations and analysed for various metal parameters (Zn, Pb, Mn,
Microbial decomposers are responsible for the breakdown of organic matter (OM) and thus regulate soil carbon (C) stocks. During the decomposition of OM, microorganisms can use the assimilated C for biomass production or respire it as CO2, and the fraction of growth to total assimilation defines the microbial carbon-use efficiency (CUE). As such, CUE has direct consequences for how microbial decomp
The effects of particle discreteness in N-body ACDM simulations are still an intensively debated issue. In this paper we explore such effects, taking into account the scatter caused by the randomness of the initial conditions and focusing on the statistical properties of the cosmological density field. For this purpose, we run large sets of ACDM simulations and analyze them using a wide variety of
Nitrate pollution of groundwater has increased dramatically worldwide due to increase of population and agricultural productivity. The resulting nitrate concentration in groundwater is usually a combination of various types of point and non-point pollutant sources. It is often difficult to distinguish between these sources since groundwater is formed in large and complex catchments with various na
Online routing in a planar embedded graph is central to a number of fields and has been studied extensively in the literature. For most planar graphs no O(1)-competitive online routing algorithm exists. A notable exception is the Delaunay triangulation for which Bose and Morin [Bose and Morin, 2004] showed that there exists an online routing algorithm that is O(1)-competitive. However, a Delaunay
The global environment suffers from utilizing fossil fuels to powering internal combustion engines (ICE), due to the massive amounts of released CO2. Besides the global impact, the local environments experience high concentrations of harmful pollutants such as NOx, CO, soot and particulate matter (PM). The automotive industry is continuously striving to find new solutions to decrease fuel consumpt
What factors influence Swedish upper secondary teachers' laboratory teaching in physics? This is an issue raised by the curriculum reform of 2011 in Sweden. In this study, 17 teachers at four different upper secondary schools discussed their laboratory teaching in focus group interviews. Based on an analysis of these interviews, a supplementary survey of 66 teachers was conducted. Logic of events
Efficient, diode-pumped high energy femtosecond laser systems around 1 μm based on Yb-gain media are readily commercially available. However, owing to the gain bandwidth limitations, the pulses generated in such lasers are substantially longer than the ones generated in Ti:Sapphire systems. A simple, energy-scalable pulse self-compression scheme for the pulses around 1 μm thus would be of great in
Many cutting processes, such as chopping, slicing, and carving, consist in 2 different stages: an initial stage of indentation, in which the cutting tool is pushed into the material under the action of an external force, and a second stage, where the target material undergoes a progressive separation. This second stage is characterised by the formation of a fracture surface followed by the cut pro
Your body is not a point particle. The nature and direction of the forces counteracting gravity influence your experience of uniform rectilinear motion- A s does your own orientation in relation to the force of gravity. Sensors in smartphones or other devices can capture these forces, and help establish a connection between the personal experience of motion and the textbook description of forces a
