Unreferenced date December 2009 Orphan date February 2009 Siphon tubes are a basic implement used in irrigation to transfer water over a barrier such as the bank of a raised canal irrigation canal , using the siphon principle. At the simplest they consist of a pipe with no working parts. To work they rely on the water level in the canal being at a higher level than the water level in the field being irrigated. Like any siphon they must be primed that is, filled with water before they will start reliably transferring water. However, once primed and positioned correctly, they will continue transferring water from the source to the destination. Operation The simplest siphon tubes are operated by simply filling the tube with water by immersion in the canal, or other means , keeping one end in the canal and with the other end sealed, placing it in the area to be irrigated. The seal can then be removed and the water will siphon transferring the water from the submerged higher end to the lower end. For tubes of up to 150mm diameter and several meters long, this is all easily undertaken by one person without any other tools. An effective seal is produced using a hand with a rapid enough action there will be sufficient water in the tube to start the siphon effect. Larger capacity siphon tubes may have mechanical means of sealing the ends, and allow for a pump to be used to prime the tube. They can be used to either flood, or drain, as required. Benefits The main benefit of siphon tubes is that they are relatively inexpensive, and do not require any engineering to put into place unlike say a sluice gate embedded in the bank of the canal . They are easily relocated from one bay or field to another as the required water level is reached. DEFAULTSORT Siphon Tubes Category Irrigation ... more details

Unreferenced date December 2009 Rheological ammunition uses a rheological substance that can be controlled by injecting a current or introducing a magnetic field to the projectile s core, thereby changing some properties of the projectile. The idea is to create a projectile with a core that can be hard or soft depending on adjustable settings on the weapon. Or development of special purpose ammunition. Possible scenarios and use The optimal goal is to create a projectile that can be electronically controlled and used in a wide range of situations. Mainly, military and law enforcements scenarios. A soldier can fire live and less lethal ammunitions from the same magazine by choosing weapon settings. A police officer may fire a Less lethal less lethal projectile and seconds later fire an armour piercing projectile. All from the same magazine loaded with identical rheological bullets . Scenario with Rheological small arms calibre ammunition A Rheological projectile bullet is supported by a magnetic sabot. The magnetic sabot controls the core properties. As long as the sabot remains in place the core is firm and support the jacket. The projectile will penetrate target without deformation. Below A projectile with a magnetic sabot is penetrating an armoured target. After the initial penetration A the magnetic sabot is discarded B and the projectile core is changing from hard to soft allowing deformation of the projectile C . After the deformation the projectile have similarity with hollow point ammunition both in deformation and wound ballistics. Applications range from entry ammunition allowing penetration of doors, armours etc. without risking over penetration and the safety of third party.
