Pratiquement, toutes les surfaces naturelles sont rugueuses. La rugosité d'une surface modifie le profil vertical de la vitesse du vent à son voisinage. L'étude de la vitesse du vent au voisinage du sol permet ainsi de déterminer un coefficient de rugosité propre à chaque culture ou à un aménagement particulier du territoire : bocage ou champ ouvert par exemple.

En règle générale, une rugosité forte freine considérablement la vitesse du vent. Ainsi, les forêts et les grandes villes freinent évidemment beaucoup le vent, tandis qu'une piste d'atterrissage en béton n'influe que peu sur la vitesse du vent. La surface de la mer a une rugosité encore plus faible que les pistes d'atterrissage ce qui fait qu'elle influe encore moins sur l'écoulement de l'air, alors que l'herbe longue, les buissons et les arbrisseaux freinent considérablement le vent. Classes et longueurs de rugosité. Dans l'industrie éolienne, on se réfère en général à deux notions lorsqu'on évalue le potentiel éolien d'un endroit donné : la classe de rugosité et la longueur de rugosité.

DIDO Experiment Container is essentially a box with a side length of 150 mm. Design philosophy of DIDO experiment foreseen an "all inside" approach, so(at this moment) the experiment container is a mere box with no windows or openings, or relevant external features. DIDO EC is intended as a structural part for the inside experiment; only mechanical, electrical and data interfaces are required to connect DIDO EC with GLAD facility. The box is assembled as one piece but the topside is removable to have access to DIDO experiment. In this way the topside component works as a cover plate. The EC is made by(TBD) material and to meet safety requirements EC' s corners are slightly rounded, materials must not be flammable and machined with non-toxic surface treatment. Cover plate is connected with the box through screws. The bottom side, instead, compose the "first plate" of DIDO experiment, housing tanks and pumping system.

The pressure head is essentially a V-shaped reservoir made airtight by a removable cover and fitted across the bottom with an adjustable gap. A variable-speed, positive-displacement pump sends adhesive into the reservoir. Spread control is determined by the width of the knife gap, the pump speed, and the viscosity of the glue...

The assessment is made by eye, comparing the beast under examination with a stereotyped animal on a chart. The estimate is made on the basis of amount of tissue cover between the points of the hip, over the transverse processes of the lumbar vertebrae, the cover over the ribs and the pin bones below the tail. 2, record 24, English, - loss%20of%20body%20condition
