The objective of this study is to evaluate the energy efficiency of residential buildings by using natural energy and optimizing the choice of materials for heat and cold saving with the Ecotect simulation software. According to analysis and simulation was found that the optimum material of main building components in a mild climate zone of Rasht city is the Brick Conc block Plaster for wall wi...

Isothermal calorimetry operated in gas perfusion mode (IGPC) is often used to quantify the amorphous content of pharmaceutical powders. Typically, the calibration line is constructed using the heat of crystallisation as the sample is exposed to high levels of a plasticising vapour. However, since the physical form to which the amorphous fraction crystallises may be dependent on the presence of ...

Used cooking oil (UCO) can be used as raw material for biodiesel production, but its free fatty acid (FFA) content is still quite high, so it necessary to do pretreatment in the form of an adsorption process reduce FFA levels. This study aims determine optimum conditions and levels UCO before after pretreatment. The adsorbent avocado seed activated charcoal, because has a surface area 19.62 m2/...

PURPOSE To measure the angular relationships of distal femoral rotational axes in 100 normal Indian knees. METHODS 42 men and 8 women aged 26 to 40 (mean, 31) years, with 100 normal non-arthritic knees were recruited. Anatomic landmarks were measured using computed tomography. They included the posterior condylar axis, the transepicondylar axis, the anteroposterior axis (Whiteside's line), th...
