The yolk cholesterol content in eggs of White Hisex laying hybrid from 3 specialized commercial farms averaged 1230, 1330 and 1230 mg/100 g of yolk over an 11-months laying period, i.e. 303, 304 and 309 mg cholesterol/100 g of consumable egg portions. In testing Babcock B-380, Moravia SSL, Shaver Starcross 288, and Hisex HX-1, the av. cholesterol content varied from 1200 to 1360 mg/100 g of yolk or from 372 to 444 mg/100 g of consumable egg portions. Throughout the egg-laying period, the yolk cholesterol content fluctuated rather irregularly and showed great variability (variation coefficient 9.7-18.2%). The values recorded failed to follow any of the common functions of the trend. Intensive market egg production was found to be associated with decreases in yolk cholesterol content.
Abstract-The parallel genetic algorithms implementation for neural networks models construction is discussed. The modification of this global optimization algorithm is proposed. The artificial neural networks are effective instrument to solve most problems of technological objectives and processes modelling. The article describes the aspects of genetic algorithms implementation for neural networks structure-parametric synthesis. It is offered to use different parallelization technique of genetic algorithm to increase computing performance. It is proposed to modify the standard multipopular parallel genetic algorithm adding its base topology dynamic adaptation. This approach allows to make effective algorithm with minimal computational difficulty. The algorithm modification shows best results, when implemented in computer network.
This paper investigates the potential sources of renewable energy, in particular biofuels. Biofuels tend to contain multiple harmful impurities that need to be separated if the biofuel is to have good energy performance, and the systems that run on it to produce electricity or heat are to operate more reliably. The paper discusses use of hydrocyclones as the most productive and reliable biofuel purification method. It dwells upon the factors that negatively affect separation of mixtures in a hydrocyclone, which are attributable to the complex hydrodynamics of the flow in such a unit. In order to eliminate these factors, the authors hereof have developed two hydrocyclone designs. An experimental test bench was designed and made to test these designs. Parts of the units were 3D printed from an environmentally friendly material. For testing, we used a biodiesel made from waste cooking oil with an impurity content of 23%. Experiments showed a maximum separation rate of 94.2%. The proposed solutions did improve the effectiveness of biodiesel mixture separation. These designs can be effectively used to separate non-homogeneous mixtures.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
