h-zsm-5 nano-zeolites were synthesized by hydrothermal method using tetrapropylammonium hydroxide (tpaoh) as a template in the presence of various tpabr concentrations. the effect of different tpabr/tpaoh molar ratios was studied on the catalytic performance of dehydration of methanol to dimethyl ether (dme) in a fixed bed reactor under the same operating conditions (t=300°c, p=1 atm, and whsv=...

This paper presents a general framework for the empirical evaluation of mixed-initiative knowledge base development methods and tools. It also illustrates it with a knowledge acquisition experiment performed to validate a mixedinitiative method for acquiring problem solving rules directly from a subject matter expert. The main feature of this framework is that the evaluation is an integral part...

In this study, presence principles were developed for dynamic display design and evaluation of dynamic display for designing mixed reality space. This is a research to classify the indicators collected through the researches about the existing measurement and evaluation of the existence felling and information suggestion methods in mixed reality as the evaluation principles of the displays and ...

Hyperspectral images contain mixed pixels due to low spatial resolution of hyperspectral sensors. Mixed pixels are pixels containing more than one distinct material called endmembers. The presence percentages of endmembers in mixed pixels are called abundance fractions. Spectral unmixing problem refers to decomposing these pixels into a set of endmembers and abundance fractions. Due to nonnegat...

ISSUES ADDRESSED Community and school cooking and gardening programs have recently increased internationally. However, despite promising indications, there is limited evidence of their effectiveness. This paper presents the evaluation framework and methods negotiated and developed to meet the information needs of all stakeholders for the Stephanie Alexander Kitchen Garden (SAKG) program, a comb...

In this paper, a generalized particle system (GPS) method, a general method to describe multiple strong form representation based particle methods is described. Gradient, divergence, and Laplacian operators used in various strong form based particle method such as moving particle semi-implicit (MPS) method, smooth particle hydrodynamics (SPH), and peridynamics, can be described by the GPS metho...
