DEVELOPMENT OF ZrO2-TiO2 POROUS CERAMIC AS SOIL HUMIDITY SENSOR FOR APLICATION IN ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING
Due to the necessity of the automation and control of processes in agriculture, as well as to the crescent interest for the environmental monitoring, efforts have been demanded in the development of more versatile, reliable sensors and sensor systems with smaller cost [1,2]. In this sense, the search of new materials, the modeling study of sensor and the development of new measurement technique...
متن کاملQuantifying soil complexity using network models of soil porous structure
This paper describes an investigation into the properties of spatially embedded complex networks representing the porous architecture of soil systems. We suggest an approach to quantify the complexity of soil pore structure based on the node-node link correlation properties of the networks. We show that the complexity depends on the strength of spatial embedding of the network and that this is ...
متن کاملNo superior performance of hydroxyapatite-coated acetabular cups over porous-coated cups
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Hydroxyapatite (HA) coating is believed to improve bone-implant ingrowth and long-term survival of prostheses. Recent studies, however, have challenged this view. Furthermore, HA particles may produce third-body wear and initiate aseptic loosening of implants. We report the performance of HA- and porous-coated acetabular cups in a prospective randomized trial. METHODS T...

abstract the present study tried to investigate the effect of visual aids (films) on the development of the speech act of disagreement among iranian efl intermediate learners. to this end, the researcher selected 40 homogeneous intermediate learners based on their scores on oxford placement test. .the subjects then divided into control group and experimental group. both classes were tested by ...
Development of a Chitosan-Based Biofoam: Application to the Processing of a Porous Ceramic Material
Developing biofoams constitutes a challenging issue for several applications. The present study focuses on the development of a chitosan-based biofoam. Solutions of chitosan in acetic acid were dried under vacuum to generate foams with high-order structures. Chitosan concentration influenced significantly the morphology of developed porosity and the organization of pores in the material. Physic...
