Precise calculations of the coexistence-curve diameters of a hard-core square-well (HCSW) fluid and the restricted primitive model (RPM) electrolyte exhibit marked deviations from rectilinear behavior. The HCSW diameter displays a |t| singularity that sets in sharply for |t| ≡ |T −Tc|/Tc . 10; this compares favorably with extensive data for SF6, also reflected in C2H6, N2, etc. By contrast, the...

Fault tolerance and transmission delay of networks are important concepts in network design. The notions are strongly related to connectivity and diameter of a graph, and have been studied by many authors. Wide diameter of a graph combines studying connectivity with the diameter of a graph. Diameter with width k of a graph G is defined as the minimum integer d for which there exist at least k i...

In this paper, some new families of integral trees with diameters 5 and 6 are constructed. All these classes are infinite. They are different from those in the existing literature. We also prove that the problem of finding integral trees of diameters 5 and 6 is equivalent to the problem of solving some Diophantine equations. The discovery of these integral trees is a new contribution to the sea...

Let G = 〈S〉 be a group, and let Γ be its Cayley graph. Computing the diameter of Γ is a computationally hard problem which comes up in several contexts. Thus, it is useful to be able to compute bounds on the diameter of Cayley graphs. In [1] Ganesan studied the case where S is a minimal set of transpositions which generate G, and provided an algorithm to find an upper bound on diam Γ without ex...

PURPOSE To examine the physiological optics of photorefractive corneal surgery and to study the effect on glare production of the optical zone diameter. METHODS An optical analysis computer program was used to generate rays that define the edge of the optical zone for any given pupil size and glare-free field. RESULTS The optical zone diameter must be based on the postoperative corneal curv...

background: the seeds of some medicinal plants and their compounds have long been valued for their numerous health benefits. objective:to investigate some physical and chemical properties of salvia spp. methods: some physico-chemical properties in five species of salvia seeds (consisted of s. officinalis l., s. macrosiphon l., s. hypoleuca l., s. sclarea l. and s. nemorosa l.) were measured at ...

Positive and negative streamers are studied in ambient air at 1 bar; they emerge from a needle electrode placed 40 mm above a planar electrode. The amplitudes of the applied voltage pulses range from 5 to 96 kV; most pulses have rise times of 30 ns or shorter. Diameters, velocities and energies of the streamers are measured. Two regimes are identified; a low voltage regime where only positive s...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The anterior communicating artery (AcoA) and posterior communicating arteries (PcoA) of the circle of Willis provide the main route for collateral blood flow in cases of carotid artery obstruction. Transcranial color-coded duplex ultrasonography (TCCD) allows real-time measurement of the collateral function of the AcoA and PcoA. The primary objective of this study was to ...

by determining normal ranges of spinal canal diameters we can make early diagnosis in persons who have lower diameters of spinal canal. these persons are predisposed to spinal canal stenosis that is a major cause of spinal radiculopathies. in different studies performed in several countries, minimum and maximum ranges of spinal canal diameters were different for each population. in this study, ...
