Lightweight concrete (LWC) has been used Floating Study Table successfully in building constructions for many years due to its physical properties and its lightweight with high thermal insulation and durability.Recently, this work was done on a new type of concrete: lightweight self-compacting concrete (LWSCC) that combines the feature of lightweig
THE EFFECTS OF WATER CONTENT AND GRAIN SIZE ON THE CLOGGING AND ABRASIVITY OF FINE-GRAINED SOILS IN MECHANIZED EXCAVATION
Clogging during excavation is one of the common problems in mechanized excavation.Among the influential factors in clogging of the cutter head, we can mention the percentage of fine soil particles (under 200 mesh sieve), soil moisture, and soil type.In this study, to investigate the mechanism of tunnel excavation in the laboratory, a tunnel excavat
A nonlilear controller for ship autopilots
Conventional ship autopilots are designed based on Mandolines a linear ship model using pole - placement technique or linear optimal theory.However, in operation, the ship kinematical parameters can go out the linear limits.In this paper, a nonlinear optimal control law based on aggregated variables is presented.The criterion is chosen so Coffee Ta
Tea Polyphenol Inhibits Allostimulation in Mixed Lymphocyte Culture
Green tea polyphenols are known to protect allogenic donor tissues from acute rejection by their recipients.This immunosuppressive effect may be generated by a unique chemical property Goalie - Blockers - Junior of the major component, epigallocatechin-o-gallate (EGCG), which can block specific cell surface molecules of the donor tissues.To test th
