Nanoparticle organic hybrid materials (NOHMs) have been recently developed that comprise an oligomeric or polymeric canopy tethered to surface-modified nanoparticles via ionic or covalent bonds. It has already been shown that the tunable nature of the grafted polymeric canopy allows for enhanced CO(2) capture capacity and selectivity via the enthalpic intermolecular interactions between CO(2) a...

We describe a class of inhomogeneous two-dimensional porous medium flows, driven by a finite number of multipole sources; the free boundary dynamics can be parametrized by polynomial conformal maps. 1 Inhomogeneous Porous-Medium Flows A class of two-phase porous medium flows in two dimensions involves the dynamics of the boundary ∂Ω(t) in the (x, y) plane separating two disjoint, open regions, ...

the main concern of the present study was to compare the frequency of the use of semantic adjustment strategies in versed and free-verse styles in the english translations of hafez poetry. the focus of the comparison was the number of expansion and reduction strategies employed in these translations. the corpus of the study comprised two translations of hafez poetry; one was a versed translatio...

A free energy (FE) model, the Shan–Chen (S–C) model, and the Rothman and Keller (R–K) model are studied numerically to evaluate their performance inmodeling two-dimensional (2D) immiscible two-phase flow in porous media on the pore scale. The FEmodel is proved to satisfy the Galilean invariance through a numerical test and the mass conservation of each component in the simulations is exact. Two...

Size-dependent longitudinal and torsional vibrations of nano-beams are examined by two-phase mixture integral elasticity. A new and efficient elastodynamic model is conceived by convexly combining the local phase with strain- and stress-driven purely nonlocal phases. The proposed stress-driven nonlocal integral mixture leads to well-posed structural problems for any value of the scale parameter...
