As the discount rate increases then the NPV is reduced. The following diagram shows the cashflow from the previous example (assuming an oil price of 20/bbl and ignoring the effect of inflation) at four different mid-year discount rates (10%, 20%, 25%, 30%). 

While each of die previous examples illustrated just one of the electron spin polarization iiiechanisms, the spectra of many systems involve polarizations from multiple iiiechanisms or a change in meclianism with delay time. 

In this molecule, the aluminium receives a pair of electrons from the nitrogen atom. The nitrogen atom is referred to as a donor atom and the aluminium as an acceptor atom. Once the bond is formed it is identical to the covalent bond of previous examples it differs... 

Keeping all of the flow regime conditions identical to the previous example, we now consider a finite element model based on treating silicon rubber as a viscoelastic fluid whose constitutive behaviour is defined by the following upper-convected Maxwell equation... 

The limited success of the previous example should not be a cause for alarm, since the constants listed in Table 4.4 are best values and will not necessarily... 

Background variables could also be introduced into the experiment by randomization, rather than by blocking techniques. Thus in the previous example, the four tires of each type could have been assigned to automobiles and wheel positions completely randomly, instead of treating automobiles and wheel positions as experimental blocks. This could have resulted in an assignment such as the following ... 

In the previous example, such a recipe would simply state that the... 

In the previous example, if altitude be taken as 2000 m, then a further derating by 94% will be essential. 

Consider a rotor resistance unit with five sections (total number of steps is six). Then in the previous example (Figure 5.4), considering Tj, as 200% and the corresponding slip S ai as roughly 14% then... 

Consider a system being fed through a transformer of 1500 kVA, 11/0.433 kV, having a rated LV current of 2000 A. The protection CT ratio on the LV side for the high set relay may be considered as 4000/5 A (depending upon the setting of the relay) rather than a conventional 2000/5 A, thus reducing the ALF of the previous example from 20 to 10. Now only one set of 15 P10 CTs will suffice, to feed the total protective scheme and have a VA x ALF of not more than 150. 

If the probability of worker injury or death because of participation in a given work-related activity can be shown to be much less than the risk of injury or death associated with presently accepted activities under very similar circumstances (e.g., the same type of hazard), then you may feel more comfortable about accepting the status quo. Table 14 illustrates the types of public mortality data available for such comparisons. In the previous example, where the worker risk was calculated as 2 X 10 fatalities... 

In our last example we return to the issue of the possible damaging effects of the standard geometry constraints. Two long trajectories have been computed for a partially hydrated dodecamer DNA duplex of the previous example, first by using ICMD and second with Cartesian coordinate molecular dynamics without constraints [54]. Both trajectories started from the same initial conformation with RMSD of 2.6 A from the canonical B-DNA form. Figure 5 shows the time evolution of RMSD from the canonical A and B conformations. Each point in the figure corresponds to a 15 ps interval and shows an average RMSD value. We see that both trajectories approach the canonical B-DNA, while the RMSD... 

The previous example was a rather unique application and not a typical case for fluidization. Although some fluidized bed reactions are executed at elevated pressure, like the naphtha reforming, most are used at atmospheric or at low pressures. The proceeding conceptual sketch. Figure 8.2.4, gives the most important features of a fluid-bed, cataljdic reactor. 

Rerate the compressor considered in Example 4-1 for an alternate set of conditions given below. Use all other conditions from the previous example. 

Step 1. Calculate a new inlet volume using the value of displaced volume from the previous example. 

The modulus term in this equation can be obtained in the same way as in the previous example. However, the difference in this case is the term V. For elastic materials this is called Poissons Ratio and is the ratio of the transverse strain to the axial strain (See Appendix C). For any particular metal this is a constant, generally in the range 0.28 to 0.35. For plastics V is not a constant. It is dependent on time, temperature, stress, etc and so it is often given the alternative names of Creep Contraction Ratio or Lateral Strain Ratio. There is very little published information on the creep contraction ratio for plastics but generally it varies from about 0.33 for hard plastics (such as acrylic) to almost 0.5 for elastomers. Some typical values are given in Table 2.1 but do remember that these may change in specific loading situations. 

The flexural stiffness of the beam will be proportional to El. So converting the section to an equivalent I beam as in the previous example... 

Solution As shown in the previous Example, the modulus for a Maxwell element may be expressed as... 

Example 2.15 In the previous Example, what would be the strain after 125 seconds if (a) the stress remained constant at 10 MN/m after 100 seconds and (b) the stress was reduced to zero after 100 seconds. 

A plastic with a time dependent creep modulus as in the previous example is stressed at a linear rate to 40 MN/m in 100 seconds. At this time the stress in reduced to 30 MN/m and kept constant at this level. If the elastic and viscous components of the modulus are 3.5 GN/m and 50 x 10 Ns/m, use Boltzmann s Superposition Principle to calculate the strain after (a) 60 seconds and (b) 130 seconds. 

Example 3.10 If a moment of Af, = 100 Nm/m is applied to the unidirectional composite described in the previous Example, calculate the curvatures which will occur. Determine also the stress and strain distributions in the global and local (1-2) directions. 

Solution Using the D and d matrices from the previous Example, then for the applied moment My = 100 N ... 

It may be seen that these values agree with those calculated in the previous Example. To get the stresses in the global (xy) directions for the / th ply... 

Example 3.20 The single ply in the previous Example is subjected to the stress system... 

Example 5.9 Calculate the time taken to inflate the bottle in the previous example if the inflation pressure is 50 kN/m. The flow curves given in Fig. 5.3 may be used. 

Now, as shown in previous example, for a constant flow rate situation the pressure build-up in the machine is given by...
