Introduction: Corrosion and scaling are important factors affecting drinking water quality, causing health and economic problems. This study aimed to investigate the indicators of corrosion and scaling in Rafsanjan drinking water. Materials and Methods: The present descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted in winter 2018 and spring 2019 in Rafsanjan. The 56 samples were randomly taken fr...

Quantum phase estimation (QPE) is the key subroutine of several quantum computing algorithms as well a central ingredient in computational chemistry and simulation. While QPE strategies have focused on single phase, applications to simultaneous phases may bring substantial advantages; for instance, presence spatial or temporal constraints. In this work, we study Bayesian algorithm parallel (sim...

In this work, we proposed an effective method based on cubic and pantic B-spline scaling functions to solve partial differential equations of fractional order. Our method is based on dual functions of B-spline scaling functions. We derived the operational matrix of fractional integration of cubic and pantic B-spline scaling functions and used them to transform the mentioned equations to a syste...

introduction: the aim of this study was to evaluate the influence of different levels of external irrigation during irradiation with an erbium, chromium: yttrium-scandium-gallium-garnet (er,cr:ysgg) laser on the roughness and wear of dental tissue during scaling procedures. methods: twenty-five uniradicular bovine teeth had the proximal surfaces planed and divided into 3 regions: upper, middle ...

The metabolic rate of organisms may be viewed as a basic property from which other vital rates and many ecological patterns emerge and that follows a universal allometric mass scaling law, or it may be considered a property of the organism that emerges as a result of the adaptation to the environment, with consequently fewer universal mass scaling properties. Here, we examine the mass scaling o...

measurement of soil saturated hydraulic conductivity, ks, is normally affected by flow patterns such as macro pore; however, most current techniques do  not differentiate flow types, causing major problems in describing water and chemical flows within the soil matrix. this study compares eight models for scaling ks and predicted matrix and macro pore ks, using a database composed of 50 datasets...

various scaling methods such as relative viscosity, peclet and reynolds scaling were used to find the best scaling law. scaling and modeling of the flow curves of various model emulsions consist of tragacanth gum (tg) (0.5, 1 % wt), oleic acid (5, 10% v/v) and wpi (2, 4 % wt) were investigated and the best models were selected. as these emulsions are non-newtonian, they do not obey the usual, si...

We proposed an intensity-based morphological pyramid image registration algorithm. This approach utilizes the global affine transformation model, also considering radiometric changes between images. With the morphological pyramid structure, Levenberg-Marquardt optimization, and bilinear interpolation, this algorithm can be implemented hierarchically and iteratively with capability of measuring,...

An analytically calculable model [1] has been proposed recently for the simultaneous description of particle spectra and correlations, which is able to explain in a natural manner the m t scaling of the radius parameters of the Bose–Einstein correlation functions. We present here preliminary results on fitting this model to data sampled by NA44 collaboration in central S + Pb reactions at CERN ...
