HYSYS process modeling software was used to analyze the effect of reflux ratio and number of trays on the purity of ethylene in a vapor recompression distillation column and also in an ordinary distillation column. Analysis of data showed that with increased pressure a higher reflux ratio is needed to obtain a purity of 99.9% for both towers. In addition number of trays was varied to see its ef...

Background: In weak clay soil, a proper ground improvement technique using stone column can be limited by the absence of sufficient lateral confining pressure. Stone columns should strengthened to provide minimum required Objective: The aim this study is find out significant composite compared conventional comparing bearing capacity enhancement and treated soil stiffness for both models. Compos...

An 'oscillating' version of Brownian motion is defined and studied. 'Ordinary' Brownian motion and 'reflecting' Brownian motion are shown to arise as special cases. Transition densities, first-passage time distributions, and occupation time distributions for the process are obtained explicitly. Convergence of a simple oscillating random walk to an oscillating Brownian motion process is establis...
