    Notes: Abstract Skyrme type potentials are known to lead — in the framework of the scaling model — to a finite-nucleus incompressibility valueK A where the volume coefficientK v equals roughly the negative surface coefficient Ks. This is found for Skyrme interactions with Kv between 200 and 360 MeV. In a semi-classical relativistic approach on the basis of theσ — ω model (linear as well as non-linear) using in addition local density approximations, we findK s to depend in particular on the surface energy coefficienta s , and not so much on the value ofK v . For a realistic value of as, both the linear and the non-linearσ — ω model (with NL1 parameter set) yield a ratio ¦K s K v ¦ of approximately 1. We discuss implications of this finding with a particular view on recent empirical results onK v andK s .

    Notes: Abstract The paper describes a tree/crop interface (TCI) experiment designed to investigate the effects of row orientation using Leucaena leucocephala Lam. Each TCI plot consisted of a regularly pruned Leucaena hedge in the middle and 12 crop rows on either side. Eight such plots were arranged at 45° around a sole Leucaena plot with rows oriented in four compass directions viz., North-South, East-West, Northeast-Southwest and Northwest-Southeast. Results of four years from 1984 to 1987 did not show any effect of row orientation, and similarly, no effect was seen on crop rows due to their location on the windward or leeward side of the hedge. The TCI effect was positive on the first crop row in the first year because Leucaena grew slowly, but depressed the yield of the first 4 to 6 crop rows(1.8 to 2.7 m from hedge) in subsequent years. The negative effect of Leucaena was noted more on sunflower in a relatively dry year than on sorghum in other years. Results from the TCI plots were used to estimate the yield of five hedgerow intercropping (HI) systems with varying alley widths (2.7 to 9.9 m). Comparison with sole stands of Leucaena and crops indicated that HI was more productive particularly at close alley widths. For example, hedges spaced at 2.7 m and 3.6 m averaged 37% and 25% higher productivity than the respective sole stands; but this advantage may be an overestimation of the real potential. The relevance of TCI experiments for studying agroforestry systems, their merits and limitations, especially of the design employed in this study are discussed.

    Productivity of annual cropping and agroforestry systems on a shallow Alfisol in semi-arid India (1991)
    Springer
    Agroforestry systems 15 (1991), S. 51-63 
    Details
    ISSN: 1572-9680
    Keywords: perennials ; agroforestry ; alley cropping ; hedgerow intercropping ; Leucaena ; pearl millet ; pigeonpea ; castor ; semi-arid tropics

    Notes: Abstract An experiment was conducted at ICRISAT Center, Patancheru, India from June 1984 to April 1988 on a shallow Alfisol to determine whether the productivity of annual crop systems can be improved by adding perennial species such as Leucaena leucocephala managed as hedgerows. Except in the first year, crop yields were suppressed by Leucaena due to competition for moisture. The severity of competition was high in years of low rainfall and on long-duration crops such as castor and pigeonpea. Based on total biomass, sole Leucaena was most productive; even on the basis of land productivity requiring both Leucaena fodder and annual crops, alley cropping had little or no advantage over block planting of both components. Application of hedge prunings as green manure or mulch on top of 60 kg N and 30 kg P 2 O 5ha−1 to annual crops did not show any benefit during the experimental period, characterized by below average rainfall. Indications are that (i) alley cropping was beneficial in terms of soil and water conservation with less runoff and soil loss with 3 m alleys than with 5.4 m alleys, and (ii) root pruning or deep ploughing might be effective in reducing moisture competition.

    Notes: This review evaluates the present state of the art on backmixing in gas-liquid and gas-liquid-solid reactors. A brief outline of numerous techniques for measuring residence time distribution (RTD) of various phases in a multiphase reactor is presented. This is followed by a brief description of differential and stagewise models for characterizing backmixing from RTD measurements. Both simple (that is, single-parameter axial dispersion model) and more complex (that is, two-, three-, or four-parameter models) models are evaluated. Backmixing characteristics of various gas-liquid columns such as trickle beds, spray columns, mechanically agitated columns, plate columns, fluidized bed columns, etc., are subsequently evaluated. The performance of a bubble column under various reaction conditions is analyzed. Criteria for the elimination of backmixing in packed-bed reactors are presented, and the effect of backmixing on the multiple steady states in a gas-liquid reactor is briefly reviewed. Finally, the scale-up problems associated with gas-liquid reactors with various degrees of backmixing and the recommendations for the future work in RTD and macromixing models are outlined.

    Transport of particulate suspensions in porous media: Model formulation (1987)
    Hoboken, NJ : Wiley-Blackwell

    Notes: A mathematical model is formulated for the general class of problems that involve the transport of stable particulate suspensions in porous media. The porous medium is represented by a network of pore bodies (sites) and pore throats (bonds). Population balances for the species responsible for particle retention and permeability reduction are written in terms of the various mechanisms of particle capture and reentrainment. Rates of capture and release are evaluated using appropriate physical models. We specifically concentrate on mass transfer limited processes. The effective-medium theory is suitably formulated to determine the fluid flow distribution in the network and to calculate the permeability. The network representation of the porous medium together with the population balances and the rates of deposition and release provide a consistent model that finds application in filtration and fines migration processes.

    Fines migration in porous media (1987)

    Notes: A model developed by Sharma and Yortsos (1987a) is applied to the processes of fines migration and fines injection in a porous medium. The first is a problem frequently encountered in oil reservoirs when release of fines is triggered by physicochemical interactions of the porous formation with the injected fluids. The second may be a problem in the filtration of relatively large particulates. Simple solutions are provided for both processes by considering size exclusion as the dominant particle retention mechanism. The solutions developed provide expressions for the particle concentration profiles, the open pore density and pore size distribution profiles, as well as the permeability reduction. These expressions are of importance in the evaluation of the extent and depth of formation damage and can be used as designing tools for remedial treatment, such as acidizing or fracturing.

    A network model for deep bed filtration processes (1987)

    Notes: Equations for the deep bed filtration problem are obtained as a special case of a general model formulated earlier. The filtration coefficient λ is expressed as an explicit function of system parameters such as fluid flow rate, pore density, and pore size distribution. For a unimodal pore size distribution it is found that λ remains constant both in space and time. In general, however, λ is shown to decrease. Explicit solutions to the problem, including particle density profiles and permeability, are obtained for the two cases of large values of the coordination number Z (capillary tube model), and for a bimodal pore size distribution with a finite coordination number.
