Use of reliable density maps is crucial for rapid and successful crystal structure determination. Here, the averaged kick (AK) map approach is investigated, its application is generalized and it is compared with other map-calculation methods. AK maps are the sum of a series of kick maps, where each kick map is calculated from atomic coordinates modified by random shifts. As such, they are a num...

Oxidation of formaldehyde (HCHO) is very important, owing to its use in fuel cells. Modification of electrodes surfaces is an excellent way to decrease the overpotentials as well as to increase the current density of the voltammetric response.pt as most efficient metal catalyst can easily be poisoned by product of oxidation and also it has high cost. In this work an efficient and low cost elect...

drilling fluid is the most important lifeline of the drilling operation, that main task is facilitate the cuttings removal of the drilling. there are varieties of drilling fluids such as sodium bentonite based-drilling fluid is called “mud” and drilling foam or surfactant based-drilling fluid is called “soap”. the present work aims are study on the modified drilling mud properties by using the ...

The author has previously shown that a sequence in the unit disk is a zero sequence for the Bergman space A if and only if a certain weighted L space contains a non-zero (equivalently, zero-free) analytic function. The weight in question is given by a simple formula summed over the zero set. Here we show that a sequence in the unit disk is an interpolating sequence for A if and only if it is se...

A modified spatially adaptive denoising algorithm for a single image corrupted by Gaussian noise is proposed in this paper. The proposed algorithm use local statistics of a selected window i.e. by defining local weighted mean, local weighted activity and local maximum. These local statistics are used to detect the noise in the image then a modified Gaussian filter is used for noise suppression....

Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) has become a powerful and influential method to non-invasively study neuronal brain activity. For this purpose, the blood oxygenation level-dependent (BOLD) effect is most widely used. T2* weighted echo planar imaging (EPI) is BOLD sensitive and the prevailing fMRI acquisition technique. Here, we present an alternative to its standard Cartesian recor...

the structure of fluids confined by planar walls is studied using density functional theory. the density functional used is a generalized form of the hypernetted chain (hnc) functional which contains a term third order in the density. this term is chosen to ensure that the modified density functional gives the correct bulk pressure. the proposed density functional applied to a lennard-jones flu...
