Oil entrapped floating alginate beads of curcumin were developed and characterized. Cremophor EL, Cremophor RH and Tween 80 were utilized to improve the solubility of the drug. The oil-loaded floating gel beads prepared by emulsion gelation method contained sodium alginate, mineral oil and surfactant. The drug content and % encapsulation declined as the ratio of surfactant was increased. The re...

In general, the FPU and processor are decoupled in the method for FPU integration, in which the communication between them requires software intervention and ultra-precision FPU is unsupported. To avoid this problem, a method based on fine-grained control for integration of FPU into the RISC processor is proposed in this paper. In terms of operand width of floating-point instructions, the metho...

For the fast transient dam break flooding with floating bodies presented through intricate city layouts, the traditional grid-based method based on solving two dimensional (2D) Shallow Water Equations or three dimensional (3D) Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equations have difficulty in modelling the 3D unsteady flow features and the moving objects in the flow, causing inaccuracies. In this pap...

We discuss the light-cone quantization of gauge theories from two perspectives: as a calculational tool for representing hadrons as QCD bound-states of relativistic quarks and gluons, and also as a novel method for simulating quantum field theory on a computer. The light-cone Fock state expansion of wavefunctions at fixed light cone time provides a precise definition of the parton model and a g...

In order to detect whether there is a base gap between the explosive charge and the inner cone of a shell and ensure its fighting performance, this paper puts forward an ultrasonic inspection method of base gap based on the principle of conservation of sound flux in propagation and according to the special construction of the shell. Inspection of artificial base gap on the inner cone and actual...

The objective of the present investigation is to formulate Nizatidine loaded superporous floating hydrogel tablets. In the present study Nizatidine floating tablets were prepared by effervescence method using sodium bicarbonate as a gas generating agent. The tablets were formulated using direct compression technology by employing polymers like chitosan, carbopol 934p and ethyl cellulose. The pr...

The high complexity of the faulty behavior observed in DRAMs is caused primarily by the presence of internal floating nodes in defective DRAMs. This paper describes a new analysis method to apply electrical simulation for investigating the faulty behavior resulting from defects causing two floating nodes within the memory. The paper also presents the results of a simulation study performed on b...

This paper presents a method to realize floating inductance simulator using Operational Transconductance Amplifiers (OTAs). Both positive and negative floating inductances can be achieved without changing the circuit topology. The realization method is based on the use of commercially available OTAs and a grounded capacitor. The proposed circuit is attractive in terms of simple configuration an...

Nonlinear interactions among incident wave, tank-sloshing and freely floating body coupled motion are investigated. The fully nonlinear sloshing and body-surface nonlinear free surface hydrodynamics is simulated using a non-uniform rational B-spline higher-order panel method (NURBS) in time domain based on the potential theory. A robust and stable improved iterative procedure, iterative semi-im...

We present the numerical behavior of a projection method for convex minimization problems which was studied by Cegielski [1]. The method is a modification of the Polyak subgradient projection method [6] and of variable target value subgradient method of Kim, Ahn and Cho [2]. In each iteration of the method an obtuse cone is constructed. The obtuse cone is generated by a linearly independent sys...
