2014 The elastic constants, magnetic susceptibility, refractive index and density are reported for p,p’-diheptylazobenzene. The behaviour of the elastic constants of this non polar compound is very similar to that of related polar compounds. The anisotropy of both the static and the highfrequency permittivity is proportional to the anisotropy of the susceptibility, as observed earlier for the h...

For an ad hoc IEEE 802.11 WLAN we investigate how the stations' incentives to launch a backoff attack i.e., to configure small minimum and maximum CSMA/CA contention windows in pursuit of a larger-than-fair bandwidth share, affect a proposed capacity-fairness index (CFI). We link CFI to the network size, "power awareness," a station's perception of the other stations' susceptibility to incentiv...

to determine the degree of susceptibility of an. sacharovi to malathion 5%, fenitrothion 1% and ddt 4% extended studies were carried out on sucked blood engorged mosquitoes collected from dasht argen (fars province) in 1997. testing method was according to standard who method in lots of 25 adults' mosquitoes in 4 replicates. an. sacharovi were touched by malathion 5% and ddt 4% insecticides in ...

the rational use of insecticides largely depends on a broad knowledge of the susceptibility and irritability levels of malaria vectors to currently used insecticides especially pyrethroids. in this study the susceptibility and irritability levels of anopheles stephensi and an.culicifacies to ddt 4%,malathion 5%, propoxur 0.1%, deltamethrin 0.025%, lambdacyhalothrin 0.1%, cyfluthrin 0.1% and per...

In Norway, crushed rock aggregates are widely used in all layers of pavement infrastructures. Frost heave severely affected the Norwegian road network during cold winters 2009/10 and 2010/11, including newly built roads. 2016, Protection for Roads Railways project (FROST) was set up part to investigate frost susceptibility aggregates. Twenty-three tests were performed on 0–4 mm fraction with ni...

current study aimed at determining the most reliable drought tolerant criteria for identification of sugar beet genotypes. a split plot design based on randomized complete block design with three replications was applied at motahari research station, karaj, iran in 2012. two irrigation treatments including normal irrigation after 80-90 mm and irrigation after 270 mm evaporation (stress conditio...
