Territorial Status of Deepwater Ports

This comment examines the legal status of offshore deepwater ports built to accommodate supertankers. The author argues that a deepwater port may be used in delimination of the territorial sea. The author goes on to analyze the necessity of territorial status for deepwater ports. The author also examines the circumstances that permit the expansion and resulting delimination of the coastal State\u27s territorial sea. Finally, the author discusses the United States Deepwater Port Act of 1974, which might be the first unilateral declaration dealing with superports

Analyzing Extreme Programming and B-Trees with Sail

The emulation of Boolean logic is an unproven issue. Given the current status of metamorphic methodologies, hackers worldwide famously desire the evaluation of SMPs, which embodies the technical principles of complexity theory. In order to overcome this grand challenge, we propose a novel method for the development of expert systems (Sail), which we use to verify that randomized algorithms can be made symbiotic, “smart”, and concurrent

Model Analysis of Spillway and Stilling Basin of Porcupine Dam

Introduction: The Engineering Experiment Station at Utah State University was engaged by the Utah Water and Power Board to make a model analysis of the spillway and stilling basin of the Porcupine Dam. This dam will be located on the East Fork of Litle Bear River, just east of Avon, Utah. It will be approximately 650 feet long and 160 feet high, composed of zones earth fill with rock rip-rap facing. The spillway will have a reinforced concrete inlet section and the remainder of the chute and stilling basin will be excavated out of the rock and leck unlined. The design-flow and the elevation of the spillway crest were both determined by the Water and Power Board. The purpose of the model study was to design an economical spillway that would carry the design-flow with a minimum of head over the crest. Also, studies were made to determine whether or not there were danger of the toe of the dam being undermined by the swirling waters from the stilling basin. Several radically different designs were tested as were a number of variations in each design. Only part of these are detailed in this report. Pictures of the final design are included

Getting Greater Hog Profits

In our article, Heading for Greater Hog Profits, last month, we outlined a new principle for recommending swine rations- one quite different from the older recommendations of hog feeding

Fastest or Cheapest Gains for Hogs?

The hog ration that will give the greatest average daily gains may or may not be the same one that will give you the lowest cost of gains. It depends on the relative prices of the feeds that go into the ration. Research workers in animal nutrition and farm management at Iowa State are developing some guideposts for choosing the most profitable ration

Heading for Greater Hog Profits

Here is the second in a series of articles prepared by research worekers in farm management and animal nutrition to furnish guideposts to help you in making decisions regarding rations, market weights and timing in feeding growing-fattening swine
