Academic literature on the topic 'Wood growth increment'

Big data refers to the massive amount of data from sundry sources (gregarious media, healthcare, different sensor, etc.) with very high velocity. Due to expeditious growth, the multimedia or image data has rapidly incremented due to the expansion of convivial networking, surveillance cameras, satellite images, and medical images. Healthcare is the most promising area where big data can be applied to make a vicissitude in human life. The process for analyzing the intricate data is mundanely concerned with the disclosing of hidden patterns. In healthcare fields capturing the visual context of any medical images, extraction is a well introduced word in digital image processing. The motive of this research is to present a detailed overview of big data in healthcare and processing of non-invasive medical images with the avail of feature extraction techniques such as region growing segmentation, GLCM, and discrete wavelet transform.

Technology has been at the heart of economic growth, from the swift Dutch commercial boats of the 17th century—called "fly boats" in English—to the latest computer or product of genetic engineering at the end of the 20th century. Since the middle of the 18th century, economists have recognized two categories of technologies. Adam Smith, for example, drew a line between the inventions of those whom he called "philosophers" (and we call scientists) that involved "new powers not formerly applied" and incremental improvement in ways of doing things that more or less automatically accompanied the widening of the market and consequent specialization. Since there were limits to the widening of the market and Smith assumed his scientific inventions were sporadic, it followed that, in the end, decreasing returns would set in. The process ended as stagnation or decline when nations had acquired their "full complement of riches." However, that is not the way it happened in the last two centuries, when innovation became a flow rather than an occasional event. A preliminary word about technology and investment. Private, domestic investment is conventionally divided into nonresidential, residential, and inventories. Nonresidential investment is the sum of business structures plus producers' equipment. Residential is primarily nonfarm structures, although relatively small items for farm structures and producers' durable equipment go with these structures. Inventories fluctuate rather stably in a 3.2 to 3.5 relation to final sales. The most volatile items in this statistical array are the linked figures for business structures and equipment and residential nonfarm structures. The hypothesis at which I have arrived is that the macroeconomic convention of viewing investment as dependent on the rate of growth of consumption (or in a fixed proportion to consumption) is too aggregated a view of the investment process. Net business investment (excluding obsolescence requirements) is primarily a function of the size of the technological backlog a country has available. The bulk of business investment that takes place is a consequence of the plowback of profits.

Over the years, all parts of a commercial refrigerator, such as the compressor, heat exchangers, refrigerant, and packaging, have been improved considerably due to the extensive research and development efforts carried out by academia and industry. However, the achieved and anticipated improvement in conventional refrigeration technology are incremental since this technology is already nearing its fundamentals limit of energy efficiency is described is ‘magnetic refrigeration' which is an evolving cooling technology. The word ‘green' designates more than a colour. It is a way of life, one that is becoming more and more common throughout the world. An interesting topic on ‘sustainable technologies for a greener world' details about what each technology is and how it achieves green goals. Recently, conventional chillers using absorption technology consume energy for hot water generator but absorption chillers carry no energy saving. With the aim of providing a single point solution for this dual purpose application, a product is launched but can provide simultaneous chilling and heating using its vapour absorption technology with 40% saving in heating energy. Using energy efficiency and managing customer energy use has become an integral and valuable exercise. The reason for this is green technology helps to sustain life on earth. This not only applies to humans but to plants, animals and the rest of the ecosystem. Energy prices and consumption will always be on an upward trajectory. In fact, energy costs have steadily risen over last decade and are expected to carry on doing so as consumption grows. This article discusses the potential for such integrated systems in the stationary and portable power market in response to the critical need for a cleaner energy technology for communities. Throughout the theme several issues relating to renewable energies, environment and sustainable development are examined from both current and future perspectives.

According to State Forest Service information for the year 2016 birch occupied 30% of whole forest area (3.38 million ha). Although between these two species have dendrological differences, however in forest inventory it is not taken into account. There is also a variety of wood properties which are not respected in the timber market. The aim of this research study is to analyze growth differences between both birch growing in the same conditions. For collecting of empirical data 2 sample plots were created. Selected stands have been regenerated naturally and 2 times repeatedly drained. The fo

Abstract In recent years, ship hulls have become larger. And the welding has become more important technology in ship building. In other word, welding has become more important technology in shipbuilding. In Japanese shipbuilding, multiple electrode butt welding has been performed with large current and high speed to increase construction efficiency. However, the multiple electrode welding method may cause a hot cracking. X-ray or ultra sonic wave inspection and repair welding are necessary due to the generation of hot cracking. These will increase the production cost. Therefore, it is importa
