drainage - design discharge - area reduction factorArea reduction formulae of the type Q=cA i where Q=discharge, A=area and c and i are empirical coefficients, are still extensively used in land drainage design to estimate discharges. This paper analyses the structure of these formulae and ...
leading to reduction of internal surface area[59].Grindingreduces the particle size distribution of biomass, therebyincreasing surface areaand methane yield. Mshandete et al.[60]showed thatbiogasyield fromsisal fiberwaste was proportional to particle size (Fig. 2). Similarly, Surendra and Khanal ...
The area reduction effect on the extreme wind pressure is smaller than that on the mean wind pressure from the code. The recommended formula of the area reduction factor for the extreme pressure coefficient is proposed in this study. It is found that the mean and the coefficient of variation ...
In an attempt to revive the ailing real estate sector in the financial capital of India, the Maharashtra government may announce a reduction of premiums payable by builders, to avail of buildable area for their projects in Mumbai. Last year, the previous government had lowered the rates from ...
Herearis a unit vector describing the polarization of the electric field, which is perpendicular to the direction of propagation, and phase not included in theexponential factor. In this expressionk=2π/λ is the wavenumber, η≈120π ohms is the wave impedance andPTis the totalradiated power...
Then introduce modification factor, and the effective stress increment caused by the reduction of pore water pressure in different loess layers was corrected. Finally, the constraint function of lateral friction located in soil-pile interface towards soil settlement was considered. The settlement at ...
Figure 8-8Results After Applying the Light-Bleeding Reduction Function 8.4.4 Numeric Stability Another potential issue isnumeric stability. In particular, the calculation of variance is known to be numerically unstable because of the differencing of two large, approximately equal values. Thank...
As mentioned in the Introduction, according to studies performed by Gurney20 over 30% of patients receiving cytotoxic chemotherapy are affected by unrecognised underdosing (with BSA being the main dosing factor). This in turn leads to, i.a., an almost 20% relative reduction in survival for ...
Therefore, the building sector has to assume more energy-saving and emission-reduction tasks. Currently, China’s building energy consumption mainly comes from industrial buildings, public buildings and residential buildings6. Although the energy consumption per square meter for urban residential buildings...
The n factor is equal to ½ or 2 for the direct and indirect transition band gaps, respectively, depending on the type of electron transfer. The absorption for 0.1 wt% Ag/NiO-CeO2, 0.25 wt% Ag/NiO-CeO2, and 0.5 wt% Ag/NiO-CeO2 are in the visible region. Due to ...
