A platelet aggregation test is a blood test that looks at how well blood cells called platelets clump together and clot. Platelet tests check for conditions that cause too much bleeding or too much blood clotting. The test checks how well platelets, a part of blood, clump together, and cause blood to clot. Thus, plat... View more
Context is defined as "the situation in which an object or situation is located." It is used in context awareness to gather information about the environment, retrieve relevant information, and act on the environment. Context is also defined as "a complement to location awareness." It is a capability of computing sys... View more
Cone crushers are used in a variety of industries, such as mining, construction, and road laying. Most are primarily used to reduce the size of material. They have a hopper that feeds the material into a large opening at the top of the machine. The material is then broken as it moves down the chamber and through the ... View more
