Liquid food packages consist of various polymers films, which are bonded together with Aluminum foil (Al-foil) using adhesion or by direct heat. The main aim this research was to define important material properties such as fracture toughness and some FE-simulation model parameters damage initiation, evolution, the between Al-foil low-density polyethylene (LDPE) film. This investigation is base...

A novel relational learning approach that tightly integrates the naı̈ve Bayes learning scheme with the inductive logic programming rule-learner FOIL is presented. In contrast to previous combinations that have employed naı̈ve Bayes only for post-processing the rule sets, the presented approach employs the naı̈ve Bayes criterion to guide its search directly. The proposed technique is implemented in...

2014 The energy straggling of heavy ion beams at tandem energies, passing through thin foils, has been studied with ions of mass up to A = 35. Charge exchange in the foils has been found to have a considerable effect on the energy spread. Thickness non-uniformities in the foils can also make significant contributions. Extrapolation of the observations to the case of a uniform carbon stripper fo...
