The present work deals with fitting literature data of ASTM Distillation curves and obtain a new correlation suitable to use in modeling when optimizing the refining processes, such as distillation, FCC, catalytic reforming, hydrotreating, etc.
 results showed that values predicted by are very good agreement range mean overall deviation (%MOD) is (0.305-0.585).

Much has been learned over a short period of time with respect to the corrosion assessment of small medical implant devices. Laboratory testing started with modifications of ASTM G 5 and G 61, which lead to the development of ASTM F 2129, and thence the fine-tuning of that specification to meet the intent of the FDA Guideline for non-clinical tests. The changes in electrochemical testing protoc...

This paper applies Bayesian neural networks on the inference of diesel 85% ASTM distillation, and compares the results with traditional multi-layer perceptrons.

A new series of Co80-x-yCrxMoyP14B6 (x=5 y=5; x=5 y=10; x=10 y=10, all values in at.%) bulk metallic glasses (BMGs) with a maximum diameter of 1.5mm has been developed for using them as potential bio-implant materials by a combination of fluxing treatment and J-quenching technique. The performance of the present Co-based BMGs in biomedical implant applications was investigated as compared to th...

The third ASTM symposium on damage in laser materials held at NBS in May 1971 is discussed, and the results are reviewed.

STUDY DESIGN Descriptive, cross-sectional design of healthy young adults. Continuous motion monitoring of the cervical spine performed outside of a laboratory setting. OBJECTIVE The objective of this study was to quantify the daily frequency and magnitude of neck motion in healthy human subjects using continuous motion monitoring. SUMMARY AND BACKGROUND DATA Daily frequency and magnitudes o...

The ASTM D 1037 six-cycle accelerated-aging test for wood-based panel products was analyzed to determine how each successive aging cycle and selected steps in each cycle contribute to panel deterioration. Hardboard, particleboard, flakeboard, waferboard, and oriented strandboard were evaluated. The rate of panel deterioration generally decreased with each successive aging cycle. Four cycles of ...

The loss at 210-280 GHz of room temperature waveguides plated with BDT 200 bright gold and Pur-A-Gold 125 soft gold is within ~10% of the theoretical loss based on the DC conductivity of pure gold and the classical skin effect. This is not the case for some other types of gold plating meeting the same ASTM (or MIL) specs but in which a trace of nickel is used as a brightener. Introduction Follo...
