Data on back-silting quantity in every dredging unit of the channel have been collected since March 2000,predominantly once 15 d. The EOF analysis of the back-silting strength reveals two significant modes, which totally explain 58.33% of the overall variance, and the corresponding processes and time-scales. The first EOF mode shows a clear annual cycle which is determined by the riverine water and sediment discharge from the upstream. The second EOF mode reveals a close relation between the back-silting strength and project activities. Because the processes are greatly interrelated in this study case, the other EOF modes accounting for 41.67% of the total variance do not show clear processes and time-scales.展开更多

Six different samples were knitted with identical cotton and lycra yarn but different in lycra contents and stitch length. After conditioning in a controlled environment, all the samples were tested as per the established methods. After analyzing the test results, noticeable effects of variations in stitch length and lycra content on physical and dimensional characteristics of single jersey knitted fabric has been found. As smaller the stitch length and as greater the lycra content, the dimensional stability and bursting strength are better;on the other hand, the air permeability is lower.展开更多
