INDUSTRY REMOTELY OPERATED VEHICLE IMAGERY FOR ASSESSING MARINE COMMUNITIES ASSOCIATED WITH SUBSEA OIL AND GAS INFRASTRUCTURE ON THE CONTINENTAL SHELF OF SOUTH-EAST AUSTRALIA

Industry remotely operated vehicle imagery for assessing marine communities associated with subsea oil and gas infrastructure on the continental shelf of South-East Australia

Introduction Offshore oil and gas (O & G) infrastructure provides hard substrata of structural complexity in marine environments and has been shown to have ecological value, particularly in oligotrophic environments.As infrastructure approaches end of life, understanding such values is critical to inform decommissioning decisions.MethodsThis st

Quality and acceptability of value-added beef burger

The sensory quality attributes of coated and uncoated beef burger patties formulated with texture soy granules or vegetables (peas and carrots) were studied in comparison to that of the control ones.Incorporation of textured soy granules significantly reduced the color, marbling, appearance, flavor, tenderness, juiciness, taste and overall acceptab

Calculation of the Equivalent Conicity Function of the Railway Wheelset Tread Profile at the Delta R Function with a Negative

The rail-wheel interface is fundamental to explain the dynamic running behaviour of a railway vehicle.It must therefore be understood and among the parameters by which it is characterised, the one called "equivalent conicity" plays an essential role since it allows the satisfactory appreciation of the wheel-rail contact on tangent track and on larg
