Porous plasticity aims to model the growth and coalescence of voids leading ductile failure. The GTN (1984), resulting from heuristic modifications Gurson's homogenized hollow sphere (1977), is used in numerous publications. Rousselier (1981), developed framework continuum thermodynamics, apparently similar. Both models are effective numerical calculations, but reasons why they perform well wer...

The main objective for the present research was to assess the effect of cyclic starvation and L- carnitine supplementation on growth (body final weight, hepatosomatic index (HSI), daily growth rate (DGI), feed conversion ratio (FCR) and voluntary feed intake (VFI)), body composition (crude protein, crude lipid, ash and moisture), biochemical (plasma total protein, glucose, cholesterol, triglyce...

A long-time dynamic for granular materials arising in the hypoplastic theory of Kolymbas type is investigated. It assumed that hardness allows exponential degradation, which leads to densification material states. The governing system a rate-independent strain under stress control described by implicit differential equations. Its analytical solution arbitrary inhomogeneous coefficients construc...

The present study investigated the feasibility of bioCO(2) sequestration using Chlorella sorokiniana. It was found that 5% CO(2) (v/v) in air was the most suitable concentration for the growth of this organism. At this concentration, the maximum rate of CO(2) sequestered and the biomass obtained were found to be 1.21 g L(-1)d(-1) and 4.4 g L(-1) respectively. Modeling and simulation of the grow...
