density, viscosity and refractive index of pure, binary and ternary mixtures of diethanolamine (dea) and methyl diethanolamine (mdea) with water have been measured at different temperatures from 288.15 k to 323.15 k at atmospheric pressure. also, this study presents the effects of mixture composition and temperature upon these thermo- physical properties. to measure the density and refractive i...

as a first step towards mechanization related to any product, including date fruit, it is necessary to have comprehensive information about the product. physical and mechanical properties are needed for the design of post harvest machinery and equipment. the objective of this study was to determine and compare some physical properties such as dimension, mass and volume, particulate density, pit...

the effects of traffic frequency and skid trail slope on dry bulk density, litter mass and rutting are examined. treatments included a combination of four different traffic frequencies (3, 7, 14, and 20 passes of a rubber skidder) and three levels of slope ( 20%.) the results showed that dry bulk density, rut depth and soil displacement increased with the increase of traffic frequency and slope...

We reexamine a simple lattice model of aggregation in which masses diffuse and coalesce upon contact with rate 1 and every nonzero mass chips off a single unit of mass and adds it to a randomly chosen neighbor with rate w. The dynamics conserves the average mass density rho and in the stationary state the system undergoes a nonequilibrium phase transition in the (rho-w) plane across a critical ...

We investigate the potential of a future supernova data set, as might be obtained by the proposed SNAP satellite, to discriminate among different "dark energy" theories that describe an accelerating Universe. We find that many such models can be distinguished with a fit to the effective pressure-to-density ratio w of this energy. More models can be distinguished when the effective slope dw/dz o...
