We investigate the energy behavior of the diffraction cone in the exclusive vector meson production in diffractive DIS within the kt-factorization approach. In our calculations, we make full use of fits to the unintegrated gluon structure functions extracted recently from experimental data on F2p. Confirming early predictions, we observe that shrinkage of the diffraction cone due to the slope o...

Geopolymers are a new type of environmentally friendly cement-based material with serious drying shrinkage problems. In order to overcome this problem and improve the engineering performance durability geopolymers, in study we added 0%, 0.3%, 0.5%, 0.7%, 0.9% polymer materials, namely, polyacrylamide, sodium polyacrylate, tetraborate, respectively, geopolymers reduce their degree shrinkage. We ...

Background and Aim: Minimizing the polymerization shrinkage of composite resins is a critical goals in composite restorations. Many factors affect polymerization shrinkage. This study aimed to evaluate the effect of composite resin shade on polymerization shrinkage. Materials and Methods: In this in vitro study, 14 composite discs measuring 1.5×8 mm were fabricated. The samples were prepared u...

In the context of ridge regression, the estimation of ridge (shrinkage) parameter plays an important role in analyzing data. Many efforts have been put to develop skills and methods of computing shrinkage estimators for different full-parametric ridge regression approaches, using eigenvalues. However, the estimation of shrinkage parameter is neglected for semiparametric regression models. The m...
