from 60 decade  sustainability issues  and sustainable developing  have opened a way in scientific meetings associated with  environment and urbanization and architecture. sustainability goals are improving of environment situation , less pollution  and at least interference on  land and interaction of  natural and artificial environment , that most of these cases attracted attention in archite...

 The use of Human Resource Management (HRM) practices in the form of ‘bundles’ and in integration with the business strategy of the organisation have been emphasised throughout the HRM literature. These are called the horizontal integration and vertical integration respectively.

BACKGROUND A common clinical scenario encountered by an orthopaedic surgeon is a patient with a secure cementless acetabular shell and a failed polyethylene liner. One treatment option is to cement a new liner into the fixed shell. The purpose of this study was to evaluate technical variables to improve the mechanical strength of such cemented liner constructs. METHODS The contributions of sh...

In the dairy industry world wide, several hundred types of liners are used to milk dairy cows. The enormous amount of liner types with different characteristics in size, form, consistency and other design and manufacturing characteristics indicate that no ‘best’ liner has been identified in the last 60 or so years since machine milking has become the common method for milk harvesting. Mechanica...

PURPOSE This study compared resin adhesion of five adhesive systems to primary enamel. METHODS The labial surfaces of 115 bovine mandibular primary incisors and five different adhesive systems were used. Effects of tooth surface conditioners were observed using SEM. Shear bond strengths were tested, and the test surfaces of enamel and resin specimens were observed using SEM. RESULTS All-Etc...

Two separate coupling effects are evaluated with respect to steady-state potassium chloride (KCl) diffusion through a bentonite-based geosynthetic clay liner (GCL) that behaves as a semipermeable membrane. Both of the coupling effects are correlated with measured chemico-osmotic efficiency coefficients, omega, that range from 0.14 to 0.63 for the GCL. The first coupling effect is an explicit (t...

A running-in and starved lubrication experiment is designed to investigate the heavy-duty scuffing behavior of piston ring coatings against cast iron (Fe) cylinder liner using the piston ring reciprocating liner test rig. The scuffing resistance of the piston ring with the chromium-based ceramic composite coating (CKS), and that with the thermally sprayed nickel-chromium-molybdenum coating (NCM...
