Abstract Modern trends in root crop machinery include the development and implementation of highly efficient, energy-saving and technologically reliable harvesting systems and facilities into agricultural production. The main criteria for meeting these demands are the digging quality and root crop impurities separation characteristics. The objective of research is the justification of design and kinematic parameters of cleaning tools. The paper provides description of the experimental unit and procedures for experimental research of the process of stripping the haulm residues from root crop heads. A histogram and polygon were plotted for probability density function of random variables of the length of leaf remnants on root crop heads. The differential law for a probability density function of length of leaf remnants after the stripping by cylindrical rollers was obtained. The approximate linear dependence was obtained as a regression equation, which describes a change in the length of leaf remnants on the root crop heads depending on the diameter and rotation speed of rollers. The aforementioned method and results obtained in experimental research can be used by specialists at design engineering bureaus for development of new or improvement of existing combined cleaning systems.

The results of theoretical and experimental study of the process of root crops carrying by a conveyer-separator of a three-row trailed root crop harvester whose rubber belt with rods is equipped with scrapers and has a sign-variable direction of transportation to minimize the machine length have been described in the article. Some analytical dependencies describing the impact of design and kinematic parameters of the conveyer-separator on the root crops motion pattern have been given and analysed. The results of the research including the key factors identification affecting the process of root crops transportation on the curvilinear path between the conveyer-separator members are presented in the experimental part. The theoretical and experimental studies have been compared and the boundaries of the most efficient design and kinematic parameters choice of the conveyer-separator under discussion have been suggested.

Soil tillage and fertilization level are important in the system of agro-technical measures that increase soil fertility and sugar beets productivity. Today the cultivation of this crop requires a great deal of expense, therefore, there is a need for a wider study of the use of cheap soil cultivation, soil protection, energy-saving soil tillage technologies and appropriate ferti-lization levels. Under western Forest-Steppe of Ukraine conditions, investigations were conducted on dark grey podzolic light loamy soils where the influence of tillage models and fertilization levels on the formation of sugar beets root crops was studied. Shallow no-plow tillage of the soil on 14-16 cm is expedient to use as a main tillage under sugar beets. Under favorable weather and climatic conditions, it can provide yielding capacity at the level of deep fall plowing. The use of shallow no-plow tillage helped to increase the yielding capacity of sugar beet roots relative to plowing by 28-30 cm for 1.3 t / ha and the biological sugar output – for 0.2 t / ha. Then the sugar content was by 0.1% higher in the application of deep fall plowing on 28-30 cm. The optimization of the system of sugar beets fertilization allows ensuring the growth of the yielding capacity of root crops. It is established that the application of fertilizer norm N300P225K350 provides the yielding capacity at the level of 90 t / ha. The sugar content of root crops at the given fertilizer rate was the lowest in the experiment - 16.5 – 16.6%. Thanks to the high yielding capacity of root crops in terms of N300P225K350, the sugar harvesting was the highest and depending on the method of basic soil tillage was 14.95 – 14.79 t / ha. That is in 3.2 times more as to the control, in 1.3 times more than the norm of N180P135K210 and in 1.1 more than the fertilization level N240P180K280.

The studies were carried out under the conditions of a microfield experiment on typical chernozem (Belgorod region) with two soils (pH 5.0 and 6.5) with the addition of urea (enriched in 15N, 17.1 at. %) And effluents from a pig-breeding complex (PSC) at doses of 6 and 12 g N/m2 (against the background of phosphate and potash fertilizers, P6K6). The largest amount of nitrogen was consumed by sugar beets with the combined introduction of CCA and urea (25.8 g N/m2). When the soil was acidified to pHsalt 5.0, the consumption of nitrogen in mineral fertilizers decreased by 15-18%, soil ni-trogen – by 21-52%, and waste nitrogen – by 16%. At the same time, the immobilization of nitrogen in the fertilizer decreased by 13-18%, and the loss of gaseous nitrogen compounds increased by 47-108%. The effluent from the pig-breeding complex increased the immobilization of nitrogen in mineral fertilizers (by 38-46%) and reduced gaseous nitrogen losses (by 22-44%). The highest stability and productivity (root crop yield 1654 g/m2, tops yield 239 g/m2) was exhibited by agrophytocenosis on soil with pH 6.5 with the combined application of CCA and urea. When the soil solution was acid-ified to pH 5.0, the yield of beet root crops decreased by 30% and the yield of tops – by 24%. On soil with pH 5.0, fertilizers increased the sugar content in root crops by 0.2-1.3%, on soil with pH 6.5, they decreased by 1.3-2.0%.

В статье представлены экспериментальные исследования по обнаружению медленных деформационных волн, интенсифицирующих геомеханические процессы в массиве горных пород, с применением высокочувствительных лазерных измерений. Проведены результаты экспериментальных исследований по оценке влияния удаленных землетрясений на состояние горного массива Стрельцовского рудного поля, регистрации удаленных землетрясений и их предвестников. Приведены результаты регистрации землетрясения в заливе Аляска. Установлено влияние удаленных землетрясений на акустическую активность горного массива, которое проявляется в виде значительного увеличения количества акустических событий и их энергии после регистрации сейсмической волны. Выявлено, что наличие деформационных и сейсмических волн от удаленных землетрясений можно отнести к дополнительным факторам, инициирующим деформационные процессы в горном массиве. Своевременная регистрация данных волн и корректная их интерпретация позволят значительно повысить достоверность прогноза энергетических геодинамических событий в удароопасных массивах горных пород при разработке месторождений в целях предотвращения катастрофических событий.The article presents experimental investigations on the detection of slow waves intensifying geomechanical processes in rock massif, with the application of highsensitivity laser measurements. The results of experimental research for the evaluation of remote earthquakes impact on the condition of rock massif of Streltsovskoe ore field, registration of remote earthquakes and their forerunners are given. The results of the earthquake in the Gulf of Alaska, is represented in the article. The influence of distant earthquakes on the rock mass acoustic activity, which manifests itself in the form of a significant increase in the number of acoustic events and their energy after the registration of a seismic wave, is established. It is revealed that the presence of deformation and seismic waves from distant earthquakes can be attributed to additional factors that initiate deformation processes in the rock massif. Timely recording of these waves and their correct interpretation will significantly improve the accuracy of the prediction of energy geodynamic events in shockhazardous rock masses when developing fields in order to prevent catastrophic events.

The results of experimental research on the pullout properties of circumferentially notched z-pins with various notch designs are presented in this paper. Investigations on notched z-pins with four different notch designs—rectangular, circular, triangular, and sinusoidal—inserted into unidirectional (UD) and quasi-isotropic (QI) laminates were carried out in order to assess the influence of notch design and laminate structure on the resulting z-pin pullout properties. It can be shown that the application of circumferential notches at the z-pin surface causes significant increases in pullout forces and consequently, on the resulting pullout energies, regardless of which notch design is considered. The effect of notched z-pins is higher in a quasi-isotropic than in a unidirectional laminate structure. The highest enhancements of the pullout energy were found on quasi-isotropic laminates with circular and sinusoidal notch designs with increases of up to 69%, in comparison to measurements on samples with unnotched z-pins.

AbstractIn India agriculture is one of the most important sources of employment for the farmers and almost everything depends on agriculture. Root vegetables and crops are hard to remove from the soil and it takes much of the farmer’s time. Even after removing these crops manually farmers are not able to achieve 100% recovery of the crops. When these crops are taken out manually this process require many precautions from the farmer. Due to human error approximate 20-30% of root vegetables and crops are left out in the field. Rich farmers can afford the proper machinery to cultivate the root crops but poor farmers are not able to afford such types of machinery. Hence, the objective of the present study was to design and simulate low cost root crop harvesting machines for poorer farmers. The machine consists of a frame, chain drive, gears, shaft, seed drill ground wheel, plough and storage container. All the measurements, dimensions and material selections were taken as per ASTM-A36 and the design hand data book. The design of the Root Crop Harvester was done mathematically and finally validated using CAD software.

The purpose of this research is the further development of the methodology and methods of optimising the parameters of root pile  combined cleaners of a root crop harvesting machine. We have conducted theoretical and experimental studies of the combined  cleaning system’s functioning process. By executing the analysis, we found the motion of the fodder beet through the working surfaces of the feeding conveyor and the auger installed above it. We have got an analytical and empirical process model for the fodder beet’s oblique sub-hit on the auger turn. It characterises the dependence of the total rate of the sub-hit coefficient of the technological  interaction of the roots and the depth of the root damage, which depend on the main parameters of the combined cleaning system. We found out the rational limits of the basic structural and kinematic parameters of the combined cleaning system by the provided minimum fodder beet damage. It is theoretically justified that the minimum damage to roots of the beet roots will be at a contact angle of zero (γ ≅ 0) or close to it. This condition is protected with the following combinations of parameters: a screw diameter of D = 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 m and a screw speed of n = 99, 72, 50 rpm, respectively.

The following communication is an abridgement of a paper on the same subject presented to the Royal Society in 1858, with some additional matter that has been since disclosed by my experimental investigations. The original paper, being deposited in the Archives of the Society, is accessible for reference on points of detail that are here excluded. In 1848 it was announced by Bernard that the liver enjoyed a sugar-forming function. This statement appeared to rest upon irrefutable grounds, and the new function soon became almost universally acknowledged by physiologists. An animal which had been for some time previously restricted to an animal diet was suddenly killed. Sugar was found abundantly in the blood of the vena cava and hepatic veins, whilst none existed in that of the portal vein. The tissue of the liver was also found abundantly saccharine, whilst no sugar was to be detected in any other organ. I had seen this experiment several times performed in Bernard’s laboratory, and had often repeated it myself. From the correctness of the description of his results, I entertained no doubt as to the accuracy of Bernard’s deductions, and did not for a moment seek to question them. In the course of my experimental research, however, I was conducted step by step to a point which has placed me, involuntarily as it were, in antagonism with the glycogenic theory. By pushing investigation further than had hitherto been done, I have been compulsorily brought to arrive at conclusions of which I had not the most remote anticipation beforehand.
