Replacement of orchard heaters by wind machines is the most desirable control measure. These large propellers force the warmer air aloft to the ground, where it mixes with the cold air, minimizing frost formation.

Halpin (1) and Tsai (2) have presented treatises that address the effects of fiber content, orientation and properties on the composite s mechanical performance. A numerically controlled filament winding machine is capable of placing fiber in precise, three dimensional, engineered patterns. Future research addressing the molecular role of the resin s infrastructure on mechanical performance, will couple filament wound composite... 

To achieve a good intrinsic visible fruit quality, biotic and abiotic stress to the trees has to be controlled. Therefore, conventional fruit orchards are often fitted with relatively expensive installations such as wind break hedges, hail nets, irrigation systems and wind machines for frost prevention, irrigation and liquid fertilisation facilities and wild animal fences. Apart from liquid fertilisation systems, most of these installations can also be installed in organic orchards and help to assure yield and quality security. 

Today s wind machines are known as wind turbines and can have rotors that cut through the air at heights of up to 100 meters. More and more of these giant machines are being installed around the world. Wind power only provides 0.15% of the world s total electricity, but it has become the fastest growing form of energy production. 

The part sizes are limited by the tool sizes such as moulds, dies, autoclaves or winding machines and by the power and the size of equipment such as presses, bags, pultrusion machines, etc. 

In lithium-based cells, the essential function of battery separator is to prevent electronic contact, while enabling ionic transport between the positive and negative electrodes. It should be usable on highspeed winding machines and possess good shutdown properties. The most commonly used separators for primary lithium batteries are microporous polypropylene membranes. Microporous polyethylene and laminates of polypropylene and polyethylene are widely used in lithium-ion batteries. These materials are chemically and electrochemically stable in secondary lithium batteries. 

A winding machine is typically equipped with computer control, and its programming is done offline. Winding pattern programs are often provided that interface with CAD programs and finite element analysis code. Such tools greatly enhance the process of concurrent engineering. Moreover, computer control allows the precise placement of the fiber on the part such that gap/overlap is minimized and the fiber orientation is controlled precisely. The... 

Piece goods made of CA are usually dyed in a jigger, less often in a star frame or winch beck, with gentle material guidance. The piece beam is suitable for warp materials. Yam was previously dyed in hanks. Since suitable winding machines are available, CA can also be dyed on cylindrical cheeses. Woven CA fabrics are occasionally dyed semicontinuously in a pad roll system at 80-90 °C. Dyeing auxiliaries are subsequently washed out. 

Spring frosts are a problem in most of the wine growing areas of the North and Central Coast counties. This is especially true of the lower lying areas. Lider (5) found no satisfactory way to treat frosted vines so that they could recover and produce an economic crop. Hence, it is essential that all vineyards in the areas subject to frost have some protection. Water from overhead sprinklers delivered at approximately fifty gallons per acre per minute has proved to be the best method. However, if enough water is not available, wind machines or a combination of wind machines and orchard heaters have proved effective for most areas. Recent advances in oil prices may well make the heater-wind machine combination too expensive to operate in the future.

Filament winding machines in which the motions for positioning, wrapping, and winding fibres are coordinated and programmed in three or more axes, specially designed to fabricate composite structures or laminates from fibrous and filamentary materials and capable of winding cylindrical rotors. 

The spinning strands arc wound at speeds of up to 200 km/h on winding machines producing "spinning cakes", immediately quenched below the bushings with a water spray and finally coated with size...
