ABSTRACT In order to reflect the actual production situation more comprehensively and optimize the production cost, this paper solves the short‐term scheduling optimization problem for a single pipeline containing high melting point crude oil. Based on the refining plan given by the upper layer, a multi‐objective optimization model with high melting ...

Hygro-thermo-mechanical properties of earthen materials for construction : a literature review
Although earth has been used for construction for millennia and is still one of the most widely used building materials in the world, it is still difficult to find reliable values for the hygro-thermal and mechanical properties of earthen materials. Only

STABILZED RAMMED EARTH- A REVIEW
Rammed earth construction has gained prominence as a sustainable building technique due to its eco-friendly nature and aesthetic appeal. However, ensuring the long-term durability of rammed earth structures remains a critical challenge. This paper investigates the efficacy of incorporating stabilizers, including cement, bagasse ash, and glass fibers ...

SkelPy: A graphic user interface–based approach for skeletonizing fungal networks
Abstract Premise Traditional methods to quantify mycelial growth rely on destructive sampling to quantify biomass. Moreover, these approaches limit continuous observation and require a sufficient mass to measure. Recent work examines hyphal network traits by reconstructing the hyphal network from spatial coordinates via images, providing information ...

A new musculoskeletal reconstruction and revision of the cranio‐mandibular anatomy of the Devonian arthrodire placoderm Dunkleosteus terrelli from a comparative and functional anatomical perspective. Dunkleosteus is a specialized arthrodire with many specializations for feeding on large vertebrates, and many of its features are part of broader ...

Rammed earth walls and its industrialization (formworks and ramming systems)
Rammed earth is a material that is characterized by its thermal inertia and excellent hygrothermal behavior, which together with the added value of sustainability and the tectonic strength of its mass, make it an interesting element to incorporate in architectural projects. In general, rammed earth as a construction technique needs an intense amount of

Abstract The upper carbonate concretion levels of the Romualdo Formation (Aptian, Brazil) have yielded several theropod dinosaur remains, including spinosaurids and the coelurosaurs Santanaraptor placidus and Mirischia asymmetrica, the phylogenetic affinities of which are controversial.

Abstract The Upper Cretaceous São José do Rio Preto Formation (Bauru Group, southeastern Brazil) has yielded a fragmentary but taxonomically diverse record of titanosaur sauropods, although elements from cervical series remain scarce. Here, we describe a nearly complete sauropod axis from the Vila Ventura Paleontological Area, representing an uncommon ...

Experimental investigation on the repair of rammed earth by means of injection of mud grouts [PDF]
This paper assesses the adhesion capacity of unmodified mud grouts used to repair structural cracks on medium and large scale rammed earth specimens. Beam and wallet-specimens were manufactured using a soil from Alentejo (Portugal), whose particle size ...

Abstract This study investigated the physiological and morphological adaptations of the liver of the carnivorous fish Pygocentrus nattereri (piranha) in response to seasonal variations (dry and rainy seasons) in the Brazilian Pantanal. The objective was to describe how the liver, a central organ in metabolic regulation, responds to environmental ...
