This paper reports a CFD modeling study to investigate the hydrogen-air mixture combustion in a micro scale chamber. Nine species with nineteen reversible reactions were considered in the premixed combustion model. The effect of operational and geometrical conditions including; combustor size, wall conductivity, reactant flow rates and hydrogen feed splitting on combustion stabilit...

Workkows consist of computer-supported, data-intensive activities which involve multiple \steps" of processing; Workkow management is an emerging and challenging eld, ooering opportunities for exporting database technology beyond its classical boundaries. In particular, active rules supported by many database systems appear as an ideal paradigm for expressing the control and data ows between pr...

This paper illustrates a prototype system, called GPRS, supporting the Generalized Production Rules database language (GPR for short). The language GPR integrates, in a unified framework, active rules, which allow the specification of event driven computations on data, and deductive rules, which can be used to derive intentional relations in the style of logic programming. The prototype realize...

microbial electrolysis cell (mec) is one of the promising and cutting-edge technologies for generating hydrogen from wastewater through biodegradation of organic waste by exoelectrogenic microbes. in the mecs, the operational parameters, such as applied voltage (eap), anode surface area, anode-cathode distance, and n2/co2 volume ratio have a significant impact on the hydrogen yield and producti...

this article proposes a direct method for solving three types of integral equations with time delay. by using operational matrix of integration, integral equations can be reduced to a linear lower triangular system which can be directly solved by forward substitution. numerical examples shows that the proposed scheme have a suitable degree of accuracy.

Freshly prepared ZnO nanoparticles were used as an effective heterogeneous base catalyst for the synthesis of aryloximes. The conversion of arylaldehydes and arylketones into the corresponding oximes (up to quantitative yields) was achieved by simply mixing the liquid reactants and hydroxylamine hydrochloride with ZnO nanoparticles under solvent-free condition. The procedure was carried out und...

It is well-known that the harsh operational conditions of turbine blades lead to a gradual change in the microstructure of underlying Ni-based superalloy of blades. According to this, a rejuvenation process should be conducted on turbine blades superalloys to recover their microstructures. The first and main step of rejuvenation process is the determination of appropriate solution condition in ...

Using biomarkers as prediction tools or therapeutic targets can be a valuable strategy in transplantation. Recent studies identified biomarkers of acute rejection (AR) and operational tolerance (TOL) through the application of meta-analysis. In this study, we comparatively analyzed the signature genes in acute rejection and operational tolerance seen in human allogeneic transplantations using m...

one of the most important issues in urban planning is developing sustainable public transportation. the basic condition for this purpose is analyzing current condition especially based on data. data mining is a set of new techniques that are beyond statistical data analyzing. clustering techniques is a subset of it that one of it’s techniques used for analyzing passengers’ trip. the result of t...

Monitoring systems benefit from high temporal frequency image data collected from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) system. Because of near-daily global coverage, MODIS data are beneficial to applications that require timely information about vegetation condition related to drought, flooding, or fire danger. Rapid satellite data streams in operational applications have c...
