The effect of rice husk ash produced at different grinding times on the engineering properties of
concrete was studied. Eight rice husk ashes representing different grinding times were used in
this investigation. Rice husk ash (RHA) was used to partially replace Portland cement Type I at
15% by weight of cementitious material. The compressive strength of concrete was designed to
achieve grade 40 N/mm2
at 28 days. -

Tunable diode laser absorption spectroscopy (TDLAS) has been well-known as an established detection technique for trace gas molecules and analytical instruments based on this technique are already commercially available. Practical applications to combustion control and emission monitoring for incinerators and industrial furnaces often involve considerations about the technique’s capability to cope with such harsh measuring environmental conditions as high temperature, high pressure and high humidity. In this study, we theoretically describe the laser modulation spectroscopy technique and discuss practical applicability of the technique.

Effect of PGX, a novel functional fibre supplement, on subjective ratings of appetite in overweight and obese women consuming a 3-day structured, low-calorie diet

Objectives: The objective of the study was to investigate the effect of supplementing a three-day, low-calorie diet with PolyGlycopleX (PGX), a highly viscous fibre, on subjective ratings of appetite compared with a placebo. Methods: In a double-blind crossover design with a 3-week washout, 45 women (aged 38±9 years, body mass index 29.9±2.8 kgm 2) were randomised to consume a 1000-kcal per day diet for 3 days, supplemented with 5 g of PGX or placebo at each of breakfast, lunch and dinner. Subjective appetite was assessed using 100mm visual analogue scales that were completed daily before, between and after consumption of meals. Results: Thirty-five women completed the study. Consumption of PGX compared with placebo led to significantly lower mean area under the curve for hunger on day 3 (440.4 versus 375.4; P¼0.048), prospective consumption on day 3 (471.0 versus 401.8; P¼0.017) and the overall 3-day average (468.6 versus 420.2; P¼0.026). More specifically, on day 3 PGX significantly reduced total appetite, hunger, desire to eat and prospective consumption for 2.5 and 4.5 h after lunch and before dinner times, with hunger also being reduced 2.5 h after dinner (Po0.05). Conclusion: The results show that adding 5 g of PGX to meals during consumption of a low-calorie diet reduces subjective ratings of prospective consumption and increases the feelings of satiety, especially during afternoon and evening. This highly viscous polysaccharide may be a useful adjunct to weight-loss interventions involving significant caloric reductions.

Constructi on Supply Chain Management Concepts and Case Studies
"Constructi on Supply Chain Management Concepts and Case Studies"
Publisher:Blackwell Publishing Ltd| ISBN:978-1-4051-5844-2| PDF | 246 pages | 2,95 mb
I am often asked by both students and practitioners what is meant by supply chain management. The term, like so many before it, has entered the everyday language of both researcher and practitioner. I hope that this book will provide an agenda for discussion for the experienced researcher and practitioner and an introduction for the novice. The seeds of this book were sown in my early research career during my time working with British Airports Authority and Slough Estates as well as a number of major developers and construction fi rms. Those early attempts to emulate manufacturing left a great impression upon me. Yet over the intervening period relatively little has been written about the subject of supply chain management (SCM) in construction. I am convinced of the importance of SCM whether as a source of tools and techniques in projects or as a higher level theoretical framework for conceptualising the activities of our project organisations. I hope that this book will be read by undergraduate and postgraduate students of construction, project management, engineering and architecture, as well as quantity surveyors. I hope to show through these pages, and through the discussion of both concepts and practice, that SCM has an important part to play in both academic discussion and practice. I feel privileged to have worked with a prestigious team of academics and practitioners on this project. I hope you enjoy the fi nal product as much as I enjoyed the journey that led up to the production of this book.
