in this paper, calcium stannate nanoparticles were synthesized by a fast and simple co-precipitation procedure. for casno3 preparation ammonia was used as precipitation agent. the effect of various surfactants such as cationic, anionic and neutral on the morphology of the products was investigated. by changing in ca(sal)2 as a new precursor different morphologies were obtained. ligand as a capp...

this work presents thermoplastic analysis of fg rotating diskswith variable thickness and constant angular velocity. the solutions are obtained by variable material property (vmp) theory. in this theory, the domain is divided into some finite sub-domains in the radial direction, in which the properties are assumed to be constant and the form of the elastic response is used to solve elastic-plas...

In the following paper, free vibration analysis of two directional FGM circular nano-plate on the elastic medium is investigated. The elastic modulus of plate varies in both radial and thickness directions. Eringen’s theory was employed to the analysis of circular nano-plate with variation in material properties. Simultaneous variations of the material properties in the radial and transverse di...

Rapid technological growth and the decreasing cost of photo capture means that we are all taking more digital photographs than ever before. However, lack of technology for automatically organising personal photo archives has resulted in many users left with poorly annotated photos, causing them great frustration when such photo collections are to be browsed or searched at a later time. As a res...

Photo-acoustic Tomography (PAT) and Thermo-acoustic Tomography (TAT) are medical imaging modalities that combine the high contrast of radiative properties of tissues with the high resolution of ultrasound. In both modalities, a first step concerns the reconstruction of the radiation-induced source of ultrasound. Transient Elastography (TE) and Magnetic Resonance Elastography (MRE) combine the h...

the efficiency of oxidation processes, enzymatic treatment, and combined enzymatic/chemical sequences on color remediation of cmp pulp mill effluent was investigated. two kinds of fungal enzymes; laccase (ec: 1.10.3.2) from terametes versicolor and versatile peroxidase (ec: 1.11.1.7) from bjerkandera adusta were chosen and applied. also, the effect of external mediator on the enzyme based degra...

An experiment investigating the elastic local buckling response of trough girders composed of thin profiled steel sheeting has been undertaken Beam tests were performed to promote initial local buckling in a region of constant moment in the elastic range of structural response. The results of the experiments were compared with an elastic complex semi-analytical finite strip method of analysis, ...

In this paper, a numerical analysis of stresses and displacements in FGM thick-walled cylindrical pressure vessel under internal pressure has been presented. The elastic modulus is assumed to be varying along the longitude of the pressure vessel with an exponential function continuously. The Poisson’s ratio is assumed to be constant. Whereas most of the previous studies about FGM thick-walled p...

In this paper we describe a novel approach for automatic photo annotation based on visual content analysis. We combine local and global features to ensure robustness and generalization needed by complex queries. We place great emphasis to work in real-time. To cope with the huge number of extracted features, we implemented diskbased locality-sensitive hashing to index descriptors. By searching ...
