In this paper, the effects of two different Particle Size Distributions (PSD) on packingbehavior of ideal rigid spherical nanoparticles using a novel packing model based on parallelalgorithms have been reported. A mersenne twister algorithm was used to generate pseudorandomnumbers for the particles initial coordinates. Also, for this purpose a nanosized tetragonal confinedcontainer with a squar...

In textile industry, marker planning is one of the main operations in the cutting fabric stage. Marker packing is usually used to maximize cloth exploitation and minimize its waste. In this research, a method is used based on new found meta-heuristic imperialist competitive algorithm (ICA) and Bottom-Left-Fill Algorithm (BLF) to achieve optimal marker packing. Function of the proposed method wa...

injection molding is one of the most common processes which are used for manufacturing different plastic parts. this method includes 3 continuous steps: filling of the mold, cooling and driving the part out. a wide range of plastic and non-plastic materials can be used as raw material in this process. one of the most important advantages of this way of production is that it is very economic. in...

Brass Ferrules have been used as packing in a laboratory- scale glass distillation column approaching pilot plant size because of their availability in all sizes and low cost. The available size range is such that these ferrules could also be used in industry and the results of this study could be scaled up. The performance of the new packing has been compared with the performance of glass ...

In a previous paper, pressure drop, flooding and mass-transfer characteristics of a novel pilot-scale distillation column called spinning cone column (SCC) were presented. Here, we present the result of comparison of mass-transfer efficiencies of SCC and structured packing. Comparison of SCC and structured packing mass-transfer characteristics show that the gas and liquid-side height of transfe...

the crystal structure of the title schiff base complex is obtained by single-crystal x-ray diffraction data.the solid state structure determination reveals that the coordination geometry around the copper(ii) center istetrahedrally distorted square-planar. the crystal packing shows one dimensional infinite chains which arisesfrom the intermolecular interaction and stabilize the crystal packing.

We extend the concept of packing dimension profiles, due to Falconer and Howroyd (1997) and Howroyd (2001), and use our extension in order to determine the packing dimension of an arbitrary image of a general Lévy process.

An equivalent definition of packing dimension is given for a set in d-dimensional Euclidean space by using its component sets as packings. It is applied to determine the packing dimensions of a class of subsets with prescribed relative group frequencies. c © 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Let X = {X(t), t ∈ RN} be a Gaussian random field with values in Rd defined by X(t) = ( X1(t), . . . , Xd(t) ) , ∀ t ∈ R , where X1, . . . , Xd are independent copies of a centered real-valued Gaussian random field X0. We consider the case when X0 is anisotropic and study the packing dimension of the range X(E), where E ⊆ RN is a Borel set. For this purpose we extend the original notion of pack...
