HEALING STRIP
In 50 years time, the projected Singapore population growth to 6.5 million inhabitants would exert its toll on our current resources. And one of these resources that are critical to sustain our growth is the requirement for more energy. Yet, as studies point out that we may have passed the world’s …

High Multiplicity Strip Packing
An instance of the two-dimensional strip packing problem is specified by n rectangular items, each having a width, 0 < wn ≤ 1, and height, 0 < hn ≤ 1. The objective is to place these items into a strip of width 1, without rotations, such that they are nonoverlapping and the total height of the …

Roll pressure distribution in strip rolling.
… the quasi-static indentation of flat and inclinedstrip specimens. Having established the basic features of the method relating to these modes of deformation the technique was then applied to the cold rolling process in the form of interrupted rolling passes.Tests were undertaken using a two-high …

Strip-Tillage Production Systems for Tobacco
… slow early season growth characteristic of strip-tillage tobacco production. Objectives of the first study were to evaluate the methods of starter fertilizer application and determine the optimal rate. A transplant water treatment (11 kg ha⁻¹) and 3 rates (11, 22, and 45 kg ha⁻¹) of injected …

Suburban revisions : redesigning suburban strip malls
… In order to unlock the potential for suburban strip centers to be places that help us orient ourselves and connect to our world, I have developed a set of prototypes for the infill of existing strip malls in suburban strip commercial centers. These prototypes act as a systematic tool for the …

Finite strip analysis of curved plate structures
A finite difference based finite strip method of analysis is presented for the solution of curved plate structures subject to normal loading. By applying variational methods to the principle of minimum potential energy the governing differential equation for a curved finite strip element is formed. …

Urban public space on the Las Vegas Strip
… selected urban public spaces on the Las Vegas Strip. This study uses criterion gleaned from studies of traditional as well as contemporary urban public spaces throughout the world but predominately major cities in the United States such as New York, Los Angeles and San Francisco. These criteria …

Free4orm framing : high-performance bending-active strip construction
… to systematizing elastically bent developable strips. Many rapidly-renewable sheet materials exist or are near market, and the local availability of flatbed machining increases with each new makerspace. Thus, this thesis proposes using simple cutting and bending operations, site-applied …

Strip-till flue-cured tobacco production in Virginia
… before being transplanted on a raised row-ridge. Strip-tillage, a conservation tillage system that only requires tilling a small strip before transplanting, has been shown to be effective for tobacco producers in southside Virginia. The cost of fertilizer in recent years and the loss of applied …

Biological Phosphorus Solubilisation in Riparian Vegetated Buffer Strip Soils.
… by establishing riparian 'vegetated buffer strips' is becoming increasingly popular, as they have been shown to reduce total P delivery to streams. However, an uncertainty remains about how buffer strips alter the delivery of dissolved forms of P, which may be highly bioavailable to …

Vegetative filter strip assessment in the state of Iowa
<p>Vegetative filter strips (VFS) is one of the best management practices that uses natural processes to remove a portion of the sediment and other pollutants carried by runoff before the water enters a water-body. The project analyzes the flow accumulation of runoff with the help of Geographic …

Optimizing the selection of rumble strip design and construction
Rumble strips are proven cost-effective roadway safety measures in reducing traffic crashes by generating in-vehicle noise for alerting inattentive drivers who are about to leave their travel lanes and/or approach stop-controlled intersections. Despite these safety benefits, they generate external …

Algebraic and combinatorial properties of minimal border strip tableaux
… conjectures of Stanley concerning minimal border strip tableaux of partitions, we present three results. First we generalize the rank of a partition [lambda] to the rank of a shifted partition S([lambda]).We show that the number of bars required in a minimal bar tableau of S([lambda]) is max(o, e …
