This section Is devoted to the proof of a powerful technical result, the existence of flattening stratifications, which will be a key ingredient in the proof of theorem (7.1). [Pg.74]

Standard of proof demanded (a) A formal calculation of power technically needs to take into account the standard of proof being required for a declaration of significance. The usual criterion is that the 95 per cent confidence interval excludes a zero effect (a =0.05). If an experiment was designed to achieve a higher standards of proof (e.g. a = 0.02), a 98 per cent Cl will have to be used and this will be wider than the standard 95 per cent CL The wider interval is then more likely to cross the zero line and so power will be lower. So, requiring a lower risk of a false positive (reducing alpha) will lead to less power. [Pg.93]

It is our opinion that this approach is the one required for successful enterprise integration. Its most attractive features include its natural evolution from existing efforts, both in supplier repository strategies, and in current standards research. A powerful technical advantage is that if a simple syntax can be maintained, the semantic complexity increases much more slowly than the complexity of the source models. As a result of the abstraction inherent in the approach, this guarantees that repositories can be simply and reliably maintained in real enterprises. [Pg.56]

First of all, a technical clarification is necessary in the wider sense, motor fuels are chemical compounds, liquid or gas, which are burned in the presence of air to enable thermal engines to run gasoline, diesel fuel, jet fuels. The term heating fuel is reserved for the production of heat energy in boilers, furnaces, power plants, etc. [Pg.177]

Laborelec is the laboratory of the Belgian electricity industry. The laboratory is in charge of solving and anticipating the technical challenges related to the power generation, transmission and distribution of electricity. [Pg.96]

X-ray tubes are used in a broad variety of technical applications the classical application certainly is the radiographic inspection. For the penetration of high-Z materials, relatively high power is required. This lead to the development of X-ray tubes for laboratory and field use of voltages up to 450 kV and cp power up to 4,5 kW. Because of design, performance and reliability reasons, most of these maximum power stationary anode tubes are today made in metal-ceramic technology. [Pg.535]

The pipelines wear and increase of their total length, complex natural-technical and social terms of operation of the most hazardous objects e g., nuclear and heating power plants, chemical and microbiological enterprises, air-space systems, hydro-technical installations, all types of traffic, etc. — here are the reasons of urgent necessity to use as much as possible the NDT and TD systems. [Pg.910]

The development and improvement of scientific-technical level of NDT and TD means for safety issues is connected with the necessity to find additional investments that must be taken into account at the stage of new technogenic objects designing, when solving new arising problems in social, economic, ecological and medical safety. It is not accidental, that the expenses for safe nuclear power plants operation cover 50% of total sum for construction work capital investments. That is why the investments for NDT and TD have to cover 10% of total amount for development and manufacturing of any product. [Pg.915]

The control of carbon dioxide emission from burning fossil fuels in power plants or other industries has been suggested as being possible with different methods, of which sequestration (i.e., collecting CO2 and injecting it to the depth of the seas) has been much talked about recently. Besides of the obvious cost and technical difficulties, this would only store, not dispose of, CO2 (although natural processes in the seas eventually can form carbonates, albeit only over very long periods of time). [Pg.217]

Exa.mina.tlon, The technical examination of stone objects begins with the use of the low power stereomicroscope. This study yields information regarding toolmarks and, hence, cutting techniques, wear patterns, and wear of toolmark edges. Such information is clearly significant in authenticity studies, but also provides an insight into the skill and the tools of the carver. [Pg.423]

Table 1 contains technical data for the newer plants of the Magnox and AGR type. These are operated in the United Kingdom by Nuclear Electric pic. The electrical power output of the AGR is almost three times that of the Magnox, whereas its core volume is less than half as large. [Pg.213]

The highest power of a reactor of the HTGR type was 330 MWe in Fort St. Vrain, Colorado. The reactor, started in 1979, had many technical problems, including helium leaks, and did not perform up to expectations. It was shut down in 1989. [Pg.214]

In Estonia, most of the rich oil shale, 209 L/1 kukersite, is burned as a soHd fuel to produce electric power (37). The kukersite, although technically an oil shale, is actually similar to a high ash, low grade coal (qv) ideally suited for this use. [Pg.354]

Solar cells have been used extensively and successfully to power sateUites in space since the late 1950s, where their high power-to-weight ratio and demonstrated rehabiUty are especially desirable characteristics. On earth, where electrical systems typically provide large amounts of power at reasonable costs, three principal technical limitations have thus far impeded the widespread use of photovoltaic products solar cells are expensive, sunlight has a relatively low power density, and commercially available solar cells convert sunlight to electricity with limited efficiency. Clearly, terrestrial solar cells must be reasonably efficient, affordable, and durable. International efforts are dedicated to obtaining such devices, and a number of these activities have been reviewed (1). [Pg.466]

The isotope plutonium-238 [13981 -16-3] Pu, is of technical importance because of the high heat that accompanies its radioactive decay. This isotope has been and is being used as fuel in small terrestrial and space nuclear-powered sources (3,4). Tu-based radioisotope thermal generator systems dehvered 7 W/kg and cost 120,000/W in 1991 (3). For some time, %Pu was considered to be the most promising power source for the radioisotope-powered artificial heart and for cardiovascular pacemakers. Usage of plutonium was discontinued, however, after it was determined that adequate elimination of penetrating radiation was uncertain (5) (see PROSTHETIC AND BIOMEDICAL devices). [Pg.191]

The other models can be appHed to non-Newtonian materials where time-dependent effects are absent. This situation encompasses many technically important materials from polymer solutions to latices, pigment slurries, and polymer melts. At high shear rates most of these materials tend to a Newtonian viscosity limit. At low shear rates they tend either to a yield point or to a low shear Newtonian limiting viscosity. At intermediate shear rates, the power law or the Casson model is a useful approximation. [Pg.167]
