Circular Footing

Ring footings are widely used as a foundation for water tanks, television antennas, silos, chimneys, oil storage tanks, etc. This paper is conducted to study the ring footing model's experimental cyclic behavior and circular footing resting on sandy soil reinforced with geocell. A group of ninety-six test models has been tested to investigate shallow footings' behavior beneath a cyclic loading of various loading rates. Four shapes of footing sand with three relative densities, two embedment depths of footing, two loading rates, and two widths of geocell were used. It was founded that as the footing depth increases, the settlement of soil due to cyclic loading decreases. Generally, when other variables are maintained to be the same, the footing bearing capacity increases when the foundation depth increases. The footing rebounds to some degree during the decay period of the load. The presence of geocell at the footing depth equals 100 mm will provide more improvement in all footing models more than using it at the surface, especially in ring 2 where the radius ratio is 0.4.

Subglottal Pressure

Purpose Oral air pressure measurements during lip occlusion for /pVpV/ syllable strings are used to estimate subglottal pressure during the vowel. Accuracy of this method relies on smoothly produced syllable repetitions. The purpose of this study was to investigate the oral air pressure waveform during the /p/ lip occlusions and propose physiological explanations for nonflat shapes. Method Ten adult participants were trained to produce the “standard condition” and were instructed to produce nonstandard tasks. Results from 8 participants are included. The standard condition required participants to produce /pːiːpːiː.../ syllables smoothly at approximately 1.5 syllables/s. The nonstandard tasks included an air leak between the lips, faster syllable repetition rates, an initial voiced consonant, and 2-syllable word productions. Results Eleven oral air pressure waveform shapes were identified during the lip occlusions, and plausible physiological explanations for each shape are provided based on the tasks in which they occurred. Training the use of the standard condition, the initial voice consonant condition, and the 2-syllable word production increased the likelihood of rectangular oral air pressure waveform shapes. Increasing the rate beyond 1.5 syllables/s improved the probability of producing rectangular oral air pressure signal shapes in some participants. Conclusions Visual and verbal feedback improved the likelihood of producing rectangular oral air pressure signal shapes. The physiological explanations of variations in the oral air pressure waveform shape may provide direction to the clinician or researcher when providing feedback to increase the accuracy of estimating subglottal pressure from oral air pressure.

In evaluations of clover performances on summer-dry Himatangi sandy soil, it was found that none could match lucerne over summer. Emphasis was therefore placed on production in autumn-winter- early spring when lucerne growth was slow. Evaluations of some winter annual clover species suggested that Trifolium spumosum, T. pallidum, T. resupinatum, and T. vesiculosum would justify further investigation, along with T. subterraneum which is already used in pastures on this soil type. Among the perennial clover species, Kenya white clover (7'. semipilosum) showed outstanding recovery from drought and was the only species to produce significantly in autumn. However, it failed to grow in winter-early spring. Within red clover, materials of New Zealand x Moroccan origin substantially outproduced the commercial cultivars. Within white clover, material from Israel, Italy and Lebanon, as well as progeny of a selected New Zealand plant, showed more rapid recovery from drought stress and subsequently better winter growth than New Zealand commercial material ('Grasslands Huia'). The wider use of plant material of Mediterranean origin and of plants collected in New Zealand dryland pastures is advocated in development of clover cultivars for New Zealand dryland situations.

Az MTA ATK TAKI Őrbottyáni Kísérleti Telepén karbonátos homoktalajon beállított NPK műtrágyázási tartamkísérlet 36–43. évében, 2006 és 2013 között vizsgáltuk a műtrágyázás hatását a tritikále fejlődésére, termésére és elemfelvételére. A termőhely talaja a főbb tápelemekben (N, P, K) gyengén ellátott, a szántott réteg 1% körüli CaCO3-ot és 1% humuszt tartalmaz. Az altalaj erősen karbonátos, az agyagos rész 5–10%. A talajvíz 8–10 m mélyen található, a terület aszályérzékeny. Évente a P- (0, 60, 120 kg P2O5·ha−1) és K-műtrágyákat (0, 100, 200, 300, 400 kg K2O·ha−1) ősszel szántás előtt, valamint a N (0, 80, 160 kg N·ha−1) felét ősszel, a másik felét tavasszal szórtuk ki 25%-os pétisó, 18%-os szuperfoszfát és 50%-os kálisó formájában. A kísérletből levonható főbb tanulságok:Talajgazdagító PK-műtrágyázás eredményeképpen a kontrolltalaj igen gyenge PK-ellátottsága a kielégítő 150–200 mg·kg−1 NH4-acetát+EDTA-oldható tartományba emelkedett a kísérlet 41. évében (2011-ben). A szuperfoszfáttal végzett trágyázás eredményeképpen igazolhatóan nőtt a feltalaj oldható S- és Sr-tartalma, mely az alkalmazott hazai Kóla-alapú/nyersanyagú eredetre vezethető vissza. A hazai szuperfoszfátok 18–22% körüli elemi Ca-, 13% S-, 7–8% P-, 1–2% Srkészlettel rendelkeztek.Nemcsak a homoktalaj rendkívül heterogén, hanem a rajta fejlődő termés mennyisége is extrém szórásokat mutatott. Az évek és kezelések között egy nagyságrendet elérő különbségek adódtak. Az évek átlagait tekintve ötszörös eltéréseket tapasztaltunk. Az „évhatások” kifejezettek voltak. Termésdepresszió léphet fel egyaránt az aszály/vízhiány és a túlbő csapadék fennállása esetén.A P-kínálattal nőtt a növényi részek P-, Mn- és Sr-készlete, míg a beépült Znmennyiség visszaesett. Fellépett a P-Mn szinergizmus, illetve a P-Zn antagonizmus. A Mo-koncentráció a növekvő NPK-műtrágyázással a szalmában 1/3-ára, a szemtermésben a felére zuhant.A vizsgált nyolc év alapján még nem ítélhető meg, hogy a tritikále mennyire alkalmas a monokultúrás termesztésre, de összevetve a telepen 52 éves ún. „örökrozs” kísérletünkkel, ez lehetővé válhat a jövőben.
