ferulic acid (4-hydroxy-3-methoxycinnamic acid), an effective component of medical plant, is a phenolic acid with low toxicity that can be absorbed and easily metabolized in the human body. the solubility of ferulic acid (fa) is very low in aqueous solutions which can cause problem in preparation of pharmaceutical products, but it can easily be dissolved in oil/water interface of nano-emulsions...

a robust and reliable quantitative structure-property relationship (qspr) study was established to forecast the melting points (mps)  of a diverse and long set including 250 drug-like compounds. based on the calculated descriptors by dragon software package, to detect homogeneities and to split the whole dataset into training and test sets, a principal component analysis (pca) approach was used...

introduction: estimation of cation exchange capacity (cec) with reliable soil properties can save time and cost. pedotransfer function (ptf) is a common method in estimating certain soil properties (e.g. cec) that has been wieldy used for many years. one of the common techniques that have been used to develop ptfs is multiple linear regressions. in this method, all easily obtained soil properti...

This dissertation studies the least squares estimator of a trend parameter in a simple linear regression model with multiple changepoints when the changepoint times are known. The error component in the model is allowed to be autocorrelated. The least squares estimator of the trend and the variance of the trend estimator are derived. Consistency and asymptotic normality of the trend estimator a...

Abstract The aim of this work is to compare EU countries in their efforts implement the circular economy model and indicate EU’s strategic objectives area, by analyzing indicators within member states. To achieve this, a qualitative quantitative analysis following THE EUROSTAT database has been carried out: total waste recycling rate, rate construction demolition waste, electronic contribution ...

artificial neural networks (anns) are computer techniques that attempt to simulate the functionality and decision-making processes of the human brain. in the past few decades, artificial neural networks (anns) have been extensively used in a wide range of engineering applications. there are only a few applications in liquid membrane process. the objective of this research was to develop artific...
