It is well-known that entrainment of particles into the froth is a key factor in the selectivity and performance of the flotation process, especially for fine particle recovery. Since flotation is a continuous process, in this work, the effects of operating parameters on the entrainment of ash materials in a sample coal flotation is investigated from a time-sequence viewpoint. The effects of th...

Since 1981, the number of factor VIII units to infuse into patients with hemophilia A in order to achieve adequate circulating factor VIII levels has been calculated using the formula: [body weight(kg)× desired factor VIII increase(%)]/2, assuming a factor VIII recovery value of 2 for all patients. This study's aim was to evaluate the impact of several morphometric parameters and various coagul...

For long-term operations, graph-based SLAM approaches require to marginalize nodes in order to control the computational cost. In this paper, we present a method to recover a set of nonlinear factors that best represents the marginal distribution in terms of Kullback-Leibler divergence. The proposed method, which we call nonlinear factor recovery (NFR), estimates both the mean and the informati...

Effective brain metabolism is highly dependent on a narrow therapeutic window of oxygen. In major insults to the brain (e.g., intracerebral hemorrhage), a slight decrease in oxygen supply, as occurs in a hypobaric environment at high altitude, has devastating effects on the injured brain tissue. Conversely, increasing brain oxygenation, by the use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy, can improve brain...

conclusions the results clarified a deep perception of participants’ experiences after disaster. the path of life recovery after disasters involves participants’ striving to achieve a comprehensive health recovery, which starts with the need for all-inclusive health recovery as a main concern; this is the motivator for a responding strategy. this strategy is participatory, and the process is pr...

various researches on laboratory and field scale illustrate that manipulating the ionic composition and the ion concentration of injected water can affect the efficiency of water flooding and the interaction of injected water with rock and other fluids present in porous media. the objectives of this paper are to investigate parameters that affect low salinity water flooding; mainly the effect o...

the applicability of hollow fiber-based liquid phase microextraction (hf-lpme) was evaluated for the extraction and preconcentration of loratadine prior to determination by hplc. in order to obtain high extraction recovery, the parameters affecting the hf-lpme including type of organic phase, ph of the source and receiving phases, stirring rate, extraction time and salt addition were studied an...
