Phase transition of strongly excited granular materials in 2D pipe is investigated numerically. By changing the ratio between width of the pipe and the height of the granular bed, we observe the transition between the 1 dimensional like state and the actual 2 dimensional state. Moreover, it is found that the character of the transition changes when the magnitude of dissipation passes through a ...

The granular cell tumor is an uncommon tumor that usually appears as a solitary small nodular growth and runs a benign course. It occurs widely throughout the body, but is rarely described in the abdominal wall. The authors report a case of malignant granular cell tumor which was arising in anterior abdominal wall of a 67-year-old woman. Malignant variant is rare and the abdominal wall site is ...

The adsorption properties and mechanics of selected endocrine disrupting compounds; 17 β-estradiol, 17 α – ethinylestradiol and bisphenol A on locally available black tea leaves waste and granular activated carbon were investigated. The results obtained indicated that the kinetics of adsorption were pH, adsorbent dose, contact time and temperature dependent with equilibrium being reached at 20 ...

The concept, rough truth, is first presented in rough logic. It is a logical value, and lies between truth and falsity. By combining rough logic with modal logic, rough validity of the rough axioms is studied in this paper, which has close links with the logical value: rough truth. Because an axiom of modal logic corresponds to a rough axiom, the study of this paper actually focuses on the anal...

Loop Quantum Gravity (LQG) has provided a highly successful approach to deal with the old problem of constructing a quantum version of Einstein general relativity. Among its predictions we singularize the property that the area and volume operators are quantized in the corresponding units of the Planck length lP . 1 In this way, a continuum description of space should be considered only as an a...

Granular residual is created in the banking network when there are a few large banks with many small banks. In this case, the effect of the shocks on each bank not lost in total that can lead to macro-economic consequences. The transmission of monetary policy through change in bank facilities is one of the key mechanisms affecting monetary policies. The power of transmission of monetary policy ...

zno thin films were deposited on si(400) substrates by e-beam evaporation technique, and then post-annealed at different annealing temperatures (200-800°c). dependence of the crystallographic structure, nano-strain, chemical composition and surface physical morphology of these layers on annealing temperature were studied. the crystallographic structure of films was studied using x-ray diffracti...

The influence of compaction water content on the structure has been well known forclayey soils, but has never been studied for granular materials. In this paper the structure of a nonplastictill and the effect of compaction moisture is investigated by means of water retention curvestudy, scanning electron microscopy and mercury intrusion porosimetry tests. The results show thatwhen compacted on...
