For the last 50 years, the flow of a granular material through an aperture has been intensely studied in gravity-driven vertical systems (e.g., silos and hoppers). Nevertheless, in many industrial applications, grains are horizontally transported at constant velocity, lying on conveyor belts or floating on the surface of flowing liquids. Unlike fluid flows, that are controlled by the pressure, ...

this study concerns about quantum chemical modeling behavior of 02 on cr (100)surface by using density functional theory (dft) by lanl2dz and 6 — 31g* basissets, we presented the results of our first principles electronic structure calculationson the 02 molecules and their interface with cr (100) surface. the chromium metalhas the body-centered cubic structure, and chromium cluster has five cr ...

The effects of geological conditionwere assessed on density of Soil Organic Carbon (SOC) and Nitrogen (N)in a sequence of hillslope landscape, derived from different lithology i.e. loess deposit, reworked loess, marl with mixed siltstone and shale, reddish brown clay deposits and older loess in the semiarid area of northern Iran. However, other factors can influence SOC and N density such as la...

Introduction: Modelling the dynamic evolution of the interior of the Moon is intrinsically linked to the density of lunar materials at high pressures and temperatures. Lunar magma density variations during crystallisation of the lunar magma ocean are particularly important, since the formation of plagioclase-rich highland rocks and mare basalts are related to density differences between lunar m...

Aims. In this paper we study the effect of the quadrupole-term in the gravitational potential of a rotationally deformed central Be star on one armed density waves in the circumstellar disc. The aim is to explain the observed long-term violet over red (V/R) intensity variations of the double peaked Balmer emission-lines, not only in cool Be star systems, but also in the hot systems like γ Cas. ...

Temperature-induced variations in the surface morphology of cultured lymphocytes were evaluated by scanning electron microscopy. At 25-37 degrees the cells' surfaces are largely obscured by numerous undulating microvilli of various lengths but uniform diameter. Temperature changes alter the number of microvilli, their lengths, diameters, distribution, branching, and fusing. Typically, chilling ...

Surface oxidized carbon vulcane XC-72 is prepared as catalyst support and platinumnanoparticles are chemically anchored onto the modified surface. The nanoparticles of Pt weresynthesized by reduction of H2PtCl6 with sodium borohydride in a 5.5 M buffer solution ofsodium citrate; the complexation of citrate with metal ions is beneficial to the formation ofnanoparticles. The electro-oxidation of ...

Polynucleotide adsorption to negatively charged surfaces via divalent ions is extensively used in the study of biological systems. We analyze here the adsorption mechanism via a self-consistent mean-field model that includes the pH effect on the surface-charge density and the interactions between divalent ions and surface groups. The adsorption is driven by the cooperative effect of divalent me...
