Based on the {S+, I-} pathway, the concentration of surfactant and surface charge density of silanolate groups control the phase transition from lamellar, to hexagonal through cubic form. The high surface charge density of silanolate groups was observed for the lamellar phase. With decrease of molar concentration of surfactant on the gel, the yield of...

Determination of stockpile weight and stockpile inventory are critical to any quarry or mining operation, whether it is required by accounting firms or used internally for the quarterly balance of production and sales. Generally, errors and problems originate from two factors. Volume of stockpile that is traditionally worked out from the mapping results has a low accuracy due to irregular shape...

the present investigation entails a procedure by which the surface tension and viscosity of liquids could be redicted.to this end, capillary experiments were performed for porous media by utilizing fifteen different liquids and powders. the time of capillary rise to a certain known height of each liquid in a particular powder was recorded. two artificial neural networks (anns) were designed and...

Aflatoxins are secondary metabolites produced by Aspergillus flavus, A. parasiticus, A. tamari, A. bombycis and A. nomius species. Relative humidity (RH) is one of the most important parameters influencing the development of aflatoxins in pistachio orchards by Aspergillus species. The type of irrigation system affects density and frequency of the Aspergillus species in the soil. In the current ...

root morphological and distribution responses of signal grass (brachiaria decumbens) to long-term cattle grazing were examined in a tropical pasture in malaysia. the treatments were no grazing by cattle and grazing at a moderate stocking density (2.7 animal unit/ha) under rotational grazing for 33 years. the method consists of taking soil core using a soil corer to a depth of 30 cm and extracti...

in present study, the density functional theory (dft-b3lyp) method with svp basis set was used for optimizing and studying the electronic structural properties of cis and trans isomers of bis-(5-nitro-2h-tetrazolato-n2) tetraammine cobalt (iii) perchlorate (bncp) as powerful explosives at 298.15 k temperature and 1 atmosphere pressure. and also, natural bond orbital (nbo) population analysis an...
