in this study, removal of methylene blue by electro-coagulation method using aluminum and iron electrodes was investigated. the influence of the operating parameters such as contact time, current density, anode type, inter-electrodes distance, initial and final ph and energy consumption rate was determined. dye removal was increased with increases in solution ph, current density and contact tim...

background: the purpose of this study was to evaluate long-term changes in bone density profile among survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia. patients and methods: this was a 5 year prospective study comprised of thirty-one survivors of childhood acute lymphoblastic leukemia with a mean age of 11.8 (4.6) years, who completed therapy at least 1 year previously (according to the all-...

the problem of several finite moving cracks in a functionally graded material is solved by dislocation technique under the condition of anti-plane deformation. by using the fourier transform the stress fields are obtained for a functionallygraded strip containing a screw dislocation. the stress components reveal the familiar cauchy singularity at thelocation of dislocation. the solution is empl...

The properties of acoustic kinetic energy density and total energy density of sound fields in lightly damped enclosures have been explored thoroughly in the literature. Their increased spatial uniformity makes them more favorable measurement quantities for various applications than acoustic potential energy density (or squared pressure), which is most often used. In this paper, a generalized ac...

Vibration energy harvesting with piezoelectric materials currently generate up to 300 microwatts per cm2, using it to be mooted as an appropriate method of energy harvesting for powering low-power electronics. One of the important problems in bimorph piezoelectric energy harvesting is the generation of the highest power with the lowest weight. In this paper the effect of the shape and geometry ...

in the present work, the structural and electronic properties, and conductivity of (5,5) and (6,6) single walled carbon nanotubes in the ground state have done by using the hartree-fock and density functional theory dft-b3lyp/6-31g* level. delocalization of charge density between the bonding or lone pair and antibonding orbitals calculated by nbo (natural bond orbital) analysis. these methods a...
