Deleterious effect of high concentration fluoride in water resources on the healthof human. The MgO supported Fe-Co-Mn nanoparticles were produced via coprecipitationmethod and characterized by SEM and FTIR techniques. In the work,the adsorption process optimization was performed by response surface modelingwith the help of Minitab 16 software. The effect of independent ...

The analysis of thermodynamics and mechanism the adsorption cadmium, chromium, copper, lead ions from aqueous solution with two keratin-based biomaterials, namely, human hair sheep fur, is reported in this paper. effect initial ion concentration, temperature, pH, contact time, biomaterial amount on removal these heavy metal using keratinous adsorbents was studied. highly dependent operating par...

A broad sample of fluid models for instability-driven plasma turbulence is surveyed to determine whether saturation involving damped eigenmodes requires special physics or is a common property of plasma turbulence driven by instability. Previous investigations have focused exclusively on turbulence in the core of tokamak discharges. The models surveyed here apply to a wide range of physical mec...

We describe a flexible multi-layer architecture for contextsensitive stochastic modeling. The architecture incorporates a high performance stochastic modeling core based on a recursive form of probabilistic logic. On top of this modeling core, causal representations and reasoning direct a long-term incremental learning process that produces a context-partitioned library of stochastic models. Th...

In this work, SO2 adsorption on 13X and 5A was explored at different concentrations, and the results were compared to molecular simulation and models. The adsorbent saturation tests were performed at four different concentrations of 250, 500, 750, and 1000 ppm, and it was observed that saturation would take more time for higher SO2 concentrations. Grand Canonical Monte Carlo method was used for...

Field-effect nano-biosensors (or Biofets, biologically sensitive field-effect transistors) have recently been demonstrated experimentally and have thus gained interest as a technology for direct, label-free, real-time, and highly sensitive detection of biomolecules. The experiments have not been accompanied by a quantitative understanding of the underlying detection mechanism. The modeling of f...

Statistical shape models learned from a population of previously observed training shapes are nowadays widely used in medical image analysis to aid segmentation or classification. However, providing an appropriate and representative training population of preferably manual segmentations is typically either very labor-intensive or even impossible. Therefore, statistical shape models in practice ...

Background: Synthetic dyes are serious pollutants and wide ranges of methods have been employed for their removal from aquatic systems. We studied the adsorption of "Nile blue A" (NBA), an anionic dye, from aqueous solution by oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). Methods: Scanning electron microscope and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were used to characterize ...
