The effect of the milling time & ageing on the hardness, density, and wear characteristics of Al 7150 alloy specimens made via powder metallurgy has been studied. The different constituents of Al 7150 alloy were processed in a planetary ball milling set up with a BPR of 10:1 for 5 hours, 10 hours, and 20 hours. At 400 °C, the milled powders were subsequently hot compacted in a punch die setup. ...

the presence of noise in geophysical measurements has undesirable effects on the seismic data. one of the important problems in seismic data processing is attenuation of the noise to the desired form and keeping the original signal. contamination of seismic data with noise prevents obtaining a proper image of geological structures and seismic data interpretation. in some of the receivers the no...

*Correspondence: [email protected] Department of Mathematics and Statistics, King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals, Dhahran, Saudi Arabia Abstract A matrix with zero diagonal is called a Euclidean distance matrix when the matrix values are measurements of distances between points in a Euclidean space. Because of data errors such a matrix may not be exactly Euclidean and it is desira...

With the aid of a dextran matrix, the metal-induced fluorescence loss of bound fluorophores can be greatly reduced, and the distance dependence of the fluorescence yield could be largely convoluted. This is optimized for the limit of detection assessment of surface plasmon fluorescence spectroscopy. The model system was designed as a direct assay with mouse IgG covalently immobilized to the car...

Bures distance holds a special place among various measures due to its several distinguished features and finds applications in diverse problems quantum information theory. It is related fidelity and, other things, it serves as bona fide measure for quantifying the separability of states. In this work, we calculate exact analytical results mean root square between fixed density matrix random ma...

Hydrophobicity properties of graphite and green synthesized graphene (gsG) from exfoliated graphite/GO towards polymer membrane characteristic and properties at different weight percentage concentrations (1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 wt. %) were investigated. PSf/graphite and PSf/gsG membranes were characterized in term of hydrophobicity, surface bonding, surface roughness and porosity. FTIR peaks revealed...

The static problem of discontinuous loading an elastic body with a periodic array flexible inclusions is considered. reduced to solving 2-D boundary integral equation the second kind Newton potential type respect unknown inclusion opening function. With help solutions equation, stress intensity factors mode I are determined and their dependences on distance between defects, contrast rigidity ma...

A formula for the distance of a Toeplitz matrix to the subspace of {e}-circulant matrices is presented, and applications of {e}-circulant matrices to preconditioning of linear systems of equations with a Toeplitz matrix are discussed.
