An artificial neural network study of gas drying by adsorption in fixed bed of composite materials is presented in this paper. The experimental investigations were carried out at two values of relative humidity and three values of air flow rate respectively. The experimental data were employed in the design of the feed forward neural networks for modeling the evolution in time of some adsorptio...

An artificial neural network (ANN) modeling of gas drying by adsorption in fixed bed of composite materials is presented in this paper. The experimental investigations were carried out at two values of relative humidity and three values of air flow rate respectively. The experimental data were employed in the design of the feed forward neural networks for modeling the evolution in time of some ...

Gloriosa superba is a very important medicinal plant that is used for the treatment of diseases like Gout, arthritis, cancer and act as anthelmintic, antimitotic and antiabortive agent. Its tuber is a great source of Colchicine for the pharmaceutical industries and requires drying before extraction. The accelerated artificial drying technique using Microwave Vacuum oven was evaluated with other...

Morphological transition and the fabrication of unique architectures through molecular self-assembly of dipeptides are caused by the formation of a small nucleus in artificial supersaturation, achieved by quick drying of the solvent due to the local Joule heating. The growth mechanism of "diatom-like" porous microspheres and microtubes is proposed on the basis of several new techniques develope...

Injection into rhesus monkeys of Plasmodium knowlesi killed by heat, formalin, drying, or freezing and thawing stimulates the production of complement-fixing antibodies, but no demonstrable agglutinating or protective antibodies are formed. Possible differences in the immunity mechanisms concerned in active infection and in artificial immunization are discussed.
