One of the main concerns of the mining industry is to determine ultimate pit limits. Final pit is a collection of blocks, which can be removed with maximum profit while following restrictions on the slope of the mine’s walls. The size, location and final shape of an open-pit are very important in designing the location of waste dumps, stockpiles, processing plants, access roads and other surfac...

for prolonging the time that drug remains in stomach, new methods used as floating drug delivery systems, that available in various forms such as floating tablets. these systems enhance drug absorption and decrease plasma concentration fluctuations. iron deficiency and its inadequate absorption in diet are of community health problems. for prolonging the time that drug remains in stomach, new m...

The critical component of radio astronomy radiometers built to detect redshifted 21 cm signals from Cosmic Dawn is the antenna element. We describe design and performance an octave bandwidth cone-disk this signal in band 40–90 MHz. predicted be wideband spectral feature orders magnitude weaker than sky ground brightness. Thus, engineering challenge at low frequencies, which able provide, with h...

Two novel methods are proposed which enhance the angular sampling rate of the integral floating display by adopting dynamically variable apertures in front of the lenslet array or the floating lens. Adopted dynamically variable apertures are opened sequentially in synchronization with proper elemental images to subdivide the angular sampling step by time-multiplexing method. Our proposed method...

An oral sustained-release floating tablet formulation of metformin HCl was designed and developed. Effervescence and swelling properties were attributed on the developed tablets by sodium bicarbonate and HPMC-PEO polymer combination, respectively. Tablet composition was optimized by response surface methodology (RSM). Seventeen (17) trial formulations were analyzed according to Box-Behnken desi...

depending on the moisture contents, the soil behavior is revealed as solid, semisolid, plastic and liquid states. liquid limit is an important property of fine-grained soils and casagrande and cone penetrometer are two different methods employed for the determination of liquid limit of the soil. in forest environment, the casagrande method is the classic method for liquid limit determination, b...
