Die Gesetzmäßigkeiten des Fahrwerklaufs erprobter Multigelenk-Niederflurstadtbahnwagen
The trend towards low-floor trams which appeared during the recent decades brought up a variety of different solutions in vehicle design. Usually the operators preferred the 100% low-floor vehicles, paying particular respect to disabled passengers. These trams have a constant floor height of not …

Trackmate : large-scale accessibility of Tangible User Interfaces
… common objects and infrastructure; to provide a low floor, high ceiling, and wide walls for development; to allow user modifications and improvisation; to be shared easily via the web; and to work alongside a broad range of existing applications and new research interface prototypes.

Documentation : a reflective practice approach
… tacit knowledge and its representation, allowing for exploration of such knowledge in a richer fashion. In order to leverage the use of archived materials, tools such as TalkTV (an application that re-sequeces television content) have been used to augment my application allowing for a "low …

Dynamic analysis of a modern urban bus for assessment of ride quality and dynamic wheel loads
Modern urban buses with low floor and considerable over hung design are known to cause poor ride quality and excessive pavement loads. Such performance is partly due to the present status of urban roads and their rapid deterioration. On the other hand, variations in the dynamic tire forces of such …

Management Factors Affecting the Growth of Pigs and the Impact of Pig Removal Strategies at Market on Growth Performance and Production Efficiencies
… a decreased growth rate due to restricted floor- and feeder-space allowance had similar (P > 0.05) ADG and higher (P < 0.01) G:F in the subsequent period after pig removal. In addition, while previous group size had little effect on subsequent growth performance, pigs previously housed at …

Moving from conventional bus service towards bus rapid transit : establishing priorities
… (BRT). Four major tasks were conducted as follows. First a literatu re review was performed to study relevant prior research and BRT cases in operation in Pittsburgh, Los Angeles, Bogota, Curitiba, and Ottawa. Second, and based on the case studies and literature review, eight key attributes …

Investigating the potential of using hydrocyclone-fine screen hybrid systems to improve the performance of classification circuits
… include, the ability to handle high throughputs, low floor space occupation and relatively low capital and running costs. Despite these advantages, hydrocyclones are inherently inefficient classifiers as they are predominantly dependent on hydrodynamics to effect separation. This effect is more …

An evaluation of the effects of floor space and lysine deficient diets on the growth rate of finishing pigs and an analysis of post-restriction compensatory gain
… producers worked to implement strategies to slow the pigs’ growth as they approached market weight. Due to facility limitations within a processing plant, pigs exceeding 136 kg are not easily harvested and therefore have reduced value. For the first time in history, pork producers worked to …
