Objective(s) Theophylline, a xanthenes derivative, is still widely used as an effective bronchodilator in the management of asthmatic patients. It is used both as a prophylactic drug and to prevent acute exacerbations of asthma. The aim of study was to formulate and evaluate effect of the microencapsulation of theophylline loaded nanoparticles on the reduction of burst release. Materials and Me...

پژوهشگران اخیراً پنل‌های چندلایه‌ی متشکل از الوارهای متقاطع چوبی (C‌L‌T) را به عنوان یکی مناسب‌ترین ماده‌های ساختمانی دارای کمترین اثرات منفی زیست محیطی معرفی کرده‌اند. در طرح سازه‌ی ترکیبی فولادی ـ ارائه شده پژوهش حاضر، قاب ساختمان نوع بوده و برای کف‌ها دیوارهای برشی سازه افقی قائم C‌L‌T استفاده است. جهت بررسی عملکرد سیستم ای پیشنهادی، یک ۶ طبقه با دو باربر جانبی شامل: الف) خمشی متوسط دیافراگم ...

Let P be a finite set of primes, and let S be a finite sequence of positive integers. This paper presents an algorithm to find the largest P smooth divisor of each integer in S. The algorithm takes time b(lg b)2+o(1), where b is the total number of bits in P and S. A previous algorithm by the author takes time b(lg b)3+o(1) to find all the factors from P of each integer in S; a variant by Frank...

Volumetric Particle Modeling. (May 2007) Brent Michael Dingle, B.S., Bradley University; M.S., Texas A&M University Chair of Advisory Committee: Dr. John Keyser This dissertation presents a robust method of modeling objects and forces for computer animation. Within this method objects and forces are represented as particles. As in most modeling systems, the movement of objects is driven by phys...

Improving the sustainability of our society requires significant change in our collective behavior. But today, individuals in our society have no regular way of seeing that collective behavior, or how their own behavior compares to it. We are creating a research network that will study how new technologies such as mobiles and visualization can encourage individuals to change their behavior to i...

The Software Engineering for Business Process Change (SEBPC) programme of the Engineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC) is intended to support academic research which can impact the business or engineering processes in industry. The CONVERSE project was funded as part of the first round of SEBPC projects and has been running for about a year. It is intended to enable a major co...
