There are many difficulties in the purification of raw components and products. However, researchers are seeking better ways for purification. One of the recent methods is extraction using supercritical fluids. In this study, the phase equilibria of benzoic acid -supercritical carbon dioxide system were investigated. Regarding the phase equilibria of this system, the modeling of solid-supercrit...

This study investigated the utility of a 5-min high-intensity exercise protocol (SAFT(5)) to include in prospective cohort studies investigating ACL injury risk. 15 active females were tested on 2 occasions during which their non-dominant leg was analysed before SAFT(5) (PRE), immediately after (POST0), 15 min after (POST15), and 30 min after (POST30). On the first occasion, testing included 5 ...

Polyethylene is the most popular man-made polymer. One way of making polyethylene consists in producing the polymer in the form of grains suspended by a gas flow of olefins (monomers), nitrogen and other hydrocarbons (alkanes). Industrials want to know the solubility of the monomers in the polyethylene grains, as the rate of the polymerization reaction is a direct function of this solubility. T...

Based on our research, the Self Affine Feature Transform (SAFT) was introduced as it extracts quantities which hold information of the edges in the investigated image region. This paper gives details on algorithms which extract various geometric information from the SAFT matrix. As different image types should be analysed differently, a classification procedure must be performed first. The main...

Synthetic Aperture Focusing Technique imaging has became a popular tool in the field of non-destructive testing in the past years. The acquisition procedure consists in collecting the data after activating elements one by one. The reconstructed object is then computed by adding the contribution of each channel, selecting the proper time delay values. It is the principle of the well-known delay ...

The synthetic aperture focusing technique (SAFT) is a well-established method for improving the resolution of an ultrasonic image. A major shortcoming is the inherent assumption that the pulse reflected from a flaw has a spectral content that is independent of the flaw's location relative to the transducer. In this project, we address the issue by using SAFT combined with Wiener filtering and a...
