The Uaso Nyiro Primary School – the first of its kind in Africa – is a solid, single-storey cylindrical structure with walls made of local stone.
Thus, a company faced with rising costs may be better served by decreasing the size of the product subtly, in three dimensions, than by raising prices.The authors also found that the shape of a container might influence consumption: volume may appear less in a conic glass than in a cylindrical one, and so people may underestimate the amount they drink from the conic glass.
That made it possible to deposit large cell aggregates, in spheroid or cylindrical form.
An INVOcell is a cylindrical contraption about 4cm long and 3cm in diameter, made of gas-permeable polystyrene.
Moored to the ocean floor 1,500 metres below the surface, the $600m structure comprises a 13,600-tonne cylindrical floating "spar" supporting a 9,800-tonne 9,800-tonneon or "topside".
Even if it ultimately fails it shows the originality of thought that is being brought to bear on the problem.Instead of two large reservoirs at different altitudes on a hillside, Gravity Power proposes two water-filled cylindrical shafts—one wider than the other dug into the ground (see illustration 2).
Based in Silicon Valley, but with engineers drawn from the motor industry in Detroit, JuiceBox's 8.6kWh battery pack uses hundreds of "18650" cylindrical lithium-ion cells found most often in laptop computers.
Henry successfully distinguished between the flat and cylindrical paddles, the flat and undulating paddles and the undulating and cylindrical paddles.
Eventually, NASA decided to fund the development of a nearly 2-metre-long cylindrical laser-powered penetrator that will be tested on the Matanuska glacier.Stone Aerospace named the penetrator VALKYRIE.
But when it comes to using the turbulent flow of liquid metal rather than well-behaved cables and wires, the experiment becomes rather harder.Dr Fauve's model of the Earth's core was a cylindrical tank some 50cm long filled with liquid sodium.
Grains of truth Painting by numbers ReprintsMost of the samples analysed by Ingrain start as cylindrical cores brought up from deep below the Earth's surface by drills.
