Stewart-Williams and Halsey provide an unusually broad synthesis of the enormous literature on gender gaps in hiring, letters recommendation, mathematical spatial abilities, email appointment-making, people vs things orientation, within-gender variability, salaries, occupational preferences, employment discrimination. They argue that sociocultural factors, while important, cannot by themselves ...

Gender disparities in participation many STEM fields, particularly computer science, engineering, and physics, remain prevalent Western societies. Stewart-Williams Halsey contend that an important contributor to these is gender differences career-related preferences are driven partly by biology. We argue understate the influence of cultural factors shaping preferences. provide evidence for over...

moisture sorption isotherms for pistachio powder were determined by gravimetric method according to cost 90 project at temperatures of 15, 25, 35, and 40oc . maximum hysteresis level in sorption isotherms curve was observed at the range of water activity 0.2-0.7 . on the other hand hysteresis was diminished between adsorption-desorption isotherm curves when temperature reached 40oc. some mathem...

in this research, moisture sorptions of sayer date were determined at 20, 30, 40 and 60°c, using the standard static gravimetric method developed by the european cooperation project cost 90. several mathematical models, namely gab, bet, iglesias & chirif and halsey were employed to fit the experimental data through non-linear regression. results indicate that equilibrium moisture content increa...

The study on the adsorption and micropore filling of water vapor in coal is significant for predicting coalbed methane content seams. primary purpose this to explain effects pore structure its surface chemistry monolayer adsorption, filling, diffusion coefficient. First, X-ray diffraction (XRD) mercury intrusion porosimetry (MIP) analyzed inorganic mineral components two kinds samples fissures ...

Interest in seed propagation of drumstick tree (Moringa oleifera) has created a need for information about the water relationships of its seeds. Thus, we studied the imbibition and desiccation kinetics and adsorption/ desorption isotherms of drumstick tree seeds. Seeds absorbed water readily when imbibed at 23oC. After 17 h of exposure to an atmosphere of 100% relative humidity (RH), seed moist...

the equilibrium moisture content is an important parameter for several post-harvesting operations for pistachio nuts, such as drying processes and storage. in this re-search the adsorption and desorption equilibrium moisture content were determined for two major varieties of iranian pistachios at 11 to 85 percent relative humidities and a con-stant temperature of 50°c. a significant hysteresis ...

Knowledge of the relationship between equilibrium moisture content product and air that involves it is essential to guarantee quality preserve its characteristics during storage. This trend can be studied by sorption isotherms. Thus, this study aimed obtain desorption adsorption isotherms soybean grains determine mathematical model best fits experimental data analyze hysteresis phenomenon. Soyb...
