The aim of this study was to investigate the efficiency of four different mineral liners (clay, bentonite, kaoline, and zeolite) which could be utilized to prevent the transport of phenolic compounds to groundwater through alternative liner systems. Four laboratory-scale HDPE reactors with 80 cm height and 40 cm inner diameter were operated for a period of 180 days. Results indicated that the t...

Bone tissue reactions to EBA, IRM, and cyanoacrylate cement (Base Liner) were studied in the rat mandible using an intraosseous implant method. Osseous cavities (1.4 mm in diameter) were surgically created in the mandibles, and materials were implanted in 60 male Wistar rats. Each specimen was evaluated histologically after 4 and 8 weeks. The development of fibrous connective tissue in direct a...

We will gives an overview of several decision problem encountered in liner shipping. We will cover problems on the strategic, tactical and operational planning levels as well as problems that can be considered at two planning levels simultaneously. Furthermore, we will shortly discuss some related problems in terminals, geographical bottlenecks for container ships and provide an overview of ope...

In this paper the second order liner differential equation

We present a matheuristic, an integer programming based heuristic, for the Liner Shipping Network Design Problem. The heuristic applies a greedy construction heuristic based on an interpretation of the liner shipping network design problem as a multiple quadratic knapsack problem. The construction heuristic is combined with an improvement heuristic with a neighborhood defined by the solution sp...

Clinical results after total hip arthroplasty with the use of a Hylamer liner have been described as being poor. In this study, polyethylene wear rates as well as clinical results were assessed after hip arthroplasty using a Hylamer liner. Thirty patients were followed radiographically and clinically after total hip arthroplasty with a Hylamer liner. The mean follow-up was six years. Radiolucen...

Fifty-eight patients received an Osteonics constrained acetabular implant for recurrent instability (46), girdlestone reimplant (8), correction of leg lengthening (3), and periprosthetic fracture (1). The constrained liner was inserted into a cementless shell (49), cemented into a pre-existing cementless shell (6), cemented into a cage (2), and cemented directly into the acetabular bone (1). Ei...

Aims: To study the effect of metal oxide nanoparticles (MgO, ZrO2, ZnO) on acrylic based soft liner surface properties and FTIR. Materials Methods: Acrylic-based soft-liner specimens were prepared by adding three different concentrations (0.5, 1, 2) %wt ZnO). A disk-shaped with 30mm diameter 3mm thickness for shore (A) hardness test to evaluate modified liner. The roughness samples (10X10X2mm) ...
