an experimental study of the phase inversion behavior of liquid-liquid dispersion has been conducted in a spray extraction column for systems of toluene / water, n-hexane/water, ccl4/water, toluene /water + glycerol (25 % wt), toluene + ccl4 (25 % wt) / water and toluene / acetic acid (5 % wt)/water. the effects of physical properties, mass transfer and column geometry on phase inversion have b...

The objective of this study is to demonstrate the power of integrating rock physics theory, measurement and simulation to improve facies prediction in an unconventional limestone and shale reservoir. Reliable facies prediction is a challenge in unconventional reservoir characterization because of complex geological heterogeneities. Both deterministic and probabilistic approaches are commonly us...

objectives: the purpose of the present study was to investigate the effectiveness of cognitive-behavior education on decreasing deterministic thinking in mothers of children with autism spectrum disorders. methods: participants were 24 mothers of autistic children who were referred to counseling centers of tehran and their children’s disorder had been diagnosed at least by a psychiatrist and a ...

Lexical ambiguity and especially part-of-speech ambiguity is the source of much non-determinism in parsing. As a result, the resolution of lexical ambiguity presents deterministic parsing with a major test. If deterministic parsing is to be viable, it must be shown that lexical ambiguity can be resolved easily deterministically. In this paper, it is shown that Marcus's "diagnostics" can be hand...

In this paper, we introduce and study notions like state-\linebreak distinguishability, input-distinguishability and output completeness of states of a crisp deterministic fuzzy automaton. We show that for each crisp deterministic fuzzy automaton there corresponds a unique (up to isomorphism), equivalent distinguished crisp deterministic fuzzy automaton. Finally, we introduce two axioms related...

Oculo-auriculovertebral dysplasia (Goldenhar) is a congenital syndrome. Its phenotype differs from craniofacial anomalies to cardiac, vertebral or central nervous system defects. This syndrome is rare and its etiology is not apparent yet. Pericentric inversion of chromosome 9 is one of the most common structural balanced chromosomal aberrations with its incidences 15% to 25%. Herein we present ...

applying robust optimization to solve product mix problem in automotive industries in this article, applying robust optimization in product mix problem in automotive industries is presented. the problem includes determining both the quantity and the identification of each product to produce to maximize profit. at first, the deterministic model will be presented. then, robust model of product mi...

shear-wave velocity ( ) is an important parameter used for site characterization in geotechnical engineering. however, dispersion curve inversion is challenging for most inversion methods due to its high non-linearity and mix-determined trait. in order to overcome these problems, in this study, a joint inversion strategy is proposed based on the particle swarm optimization (pso) algorithm. the ...
