The intent of this Manual of Practice is to provide the essential information needed for the design, construction, and operation of coal log pipelines (CLP), a new pipeline technology for transporting coal....

This economic report is an update and a refinement of a 1993 study conducted by Liu, Zuniga and Richards that compared the cost of transporting coal from mines to power plants by coal log pipeline (CPL) with other modes of transportation including...

This economic report is a refinement and an update of a 1990 study conducted by Liu and Wu that compares the cost of transporting coal from mines to power plants by coal log pipeline (CPL) with other modes of transportation including truck, rail...

During this 1st quarter of 1997 (1/1/97 to 3/31/97), significant progress was made in many fronts of coal log pipeline research, development and technology transfer including the following: 1. A set of revised (final) drawings on certain parts...

. This targeted amount can be achieved with five electric utilities participating. The project will also be cost-shared with $325,960 of the existing funds of the Capsule Pipeline Research Center (CPRC). Currently, the CPRC has insufficient funds to carry out...

The mission of Capsule Pipeline Research Center of the last eight years (1991-99) has been focused on the coal log pipeline (CLP) technology. Year 8 saw the construction of a testbed (pilot plant) to test both CLP and other hydraulic capsule...

The purpose of this symposium is to bring the key players and stakeholders of capsule pipelines together from around the world not only to share experiences and research findings, but also to plan the future of capsule pipelines, in order...

The Capsule Pipeline Research Center is devoted to performing research in capsule pipelines so that this emerging technology can be developed for early use to transport solids including coal, grain, other agricultural products, solid wastes, etc...

The Capsule Pipeline Research Center (CPRC) was established on September 1, 1991 as an NSF State/Industry University Cooperative Research Center (State/IUCRC). The stated mission of the Center is to perform R&D in capsule pipelines so...

coal logs at the Capsule Pipeline Research Center (CPRC), University of Missouri--Columbia and Rolla campuses. All researchers on the two campuses must follow these procedures so that test data are reproducible on different days by different...

The mission of the CPRC (Capsule Pipeline Research Center) has been focused on the coal log pipeline (CLP) technology for transporting coal. Great strides have been made by CPRC in the last 6 1/2 years in research, development, technology transfer...

Includes a summary that highlights significant accomplishments and services, photographs, curriculum vitae, a listing of courses taught since 1993, grants received, and awards and honors conferred.

This project explores different types of deep neural networks (DNNs) for recognizing birds in aerial images based on real data provided by the Missouri Department of Conservation. The pipeline to identify birds from an image consist of two phases...

The unique high-pressure compaction technology developed at Capsule Pipeline Research Center (CPRC) of University of Missouri-Columbia was used to study the compaction of combustible components of municipal solid waste and flyash generated from coal...

Cities are witnessing a rapid growth in population and vehicles, causing greater traffic congestion on roads. Therefore, a need for a better transportation system to avoid this swelling congestion. In this research, we examine an emerging technology...
