Ceramic Ultrafiltration membranes are considered as an alternative for the treatment of both stable water-in-oil and oil-in-water emulsions proved to be more effective in comparison with other conventional techniques. In this study, symmetric macro-porous ceramic membranes are prepared through dry pressing of α-alumina powder and the addition of various binders including Poly (vinyl alcohol). T...

Generalising Nachbin's theory of ``topology and order'', in this paper we   continue the study of quantale-enriched categories equipped with a compact   Hausdorff topology. We compare these $V$-categorical compact Hausdorff spaces   with ultrafilter-quantale-enriched categories, and show that the presence of a   compact Hausdorff topology guarantees Cauchy completeness and (suitably   defined) ...

A method for design and implementation of a compact via-less Composite Right/Left-Handed Transmission Line (CRLH TL) is presented. By introducing a new circuit model, the CRLH transmission line behavior is studied versus the parameters variations to achieve the desired characteristic impedance and electrical length. Then a compact quarter wavelength CRLH transmission line with 70 Ω characte...

Some cultivars of grapevine have very compact cluster which adversely affect its quality and marketability. ‘Yaghouti’ is a commercial early table grape cultivar that has very compact clusters. The present study was conducted to assess the effects of mechanical and chemical thinning as well as GA3 application on cluster morphology and berry size of grapevine cv. ‘Yaghouti’. Treatments were chem...

This paper introduces the application of uniform experimental design to improve dental implant systems subjected to dynamic loads. The dynamic micromotion of the Zimmer dental implant system is calculated and illustrated by explicit dynamic finite element analysis. Endogenous and exogenous factors influence the success rate of dental implant systems. Endogenous factors include: bone density, co...

A method to significantly improve the isolation of multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antenna is presented in this paper. The proposed design consists multiple patches arranged H-plane configuration. Satisfactory obtained by using microstrip lines that are positioned along radiating edges patches. function decoupled excite an orthogonal polarization mode on non-excited patch. two-element arr...

the present paper introduces the notion of the complete fuzzy norm on a linear space. and, some relations between the fuzzy completeness and ordinary completeness on a linear space is considered, moreover a new form of fuzzy compact spaces, namely b-compact spaces and b-closed spaces are introduced. some characterizations of their properties are obtained.

A significant Au particle size-dependent electrocatalytic effect has been shown in a sandwich type photoelectrochemical solar cell consisting of CdS quantum dot (QD)-sensitized TiO(2) photoelectrodes, Au nanoparticle (NP)-loaded SnO(2) counter electrodes, and a polysulfide electrolyte solution intervening between the electrodes.

The physical and mechanical properties of samples of a nickel-base alloy fabricated by powder metallurgy were determined. The particle sizes of the powders used to make the samples varied from -80/ +200 mesh to -325 mesh. The compaction pressure varied from 138 to 414 MN/m2 and the sintering temperature varied from 1150 to 1250 degrees C. The shrinkage during processing, the porosity, tensile s...
