industrial processes release a range of gaseous and particulate pollutants containing heavy metals into the air. lack of enough attention to the design, installation, repair and maintenance of gas and dust filtration systems in industries, is one of reasons of increasing the emissions of these pollutants. hereon, the steel making processes is one of emission sources of heavy metals. according t...

With the dramatic growth of nonlinear loads, it is desired to improve active filters performance and enhance their capacity. One of the most favorable methods is applying distributed active filter system (DAFS) in which leads to minimizing the cost, weight & size .The main purpose of this paper is to determine the locations and sizes of distributed active filter system (DAFS) With emphasis on r...

this study is aimed to identify sources of particulate matter with mean aerodynamic diameterbelow 10 μm (pm10) present in the atmosphere of the metropolitan area of mexico city (mamc), usingsamples obtained from january 1st to june 30th, 2009, analyzed with x-ray spectrometric techniques.minivol samplers were used to collect samples on polycarbonate filters in three sites (north, center, andsou...

session initiation protocol (sip) is the main signaling protocol of next generation networks (ngn). sip based applications are usually deployed over the internet, for which their text-based nature and internal stateful operation make them vulnerable to different types of attacks. the real‑time functionality of sip based applications make their related security systems more complex. on the other...

background: in myocardial perfusion spect imaging, images are degraded by photon attenuation, the distance-dependent collimator, detector response and photons scatter. filters greatly affect quality of nuclear medicine images materials and methods: a phantom simulating heart left ventricle was built. about 1mci of 99mtc was injected into the phantom. images were taken from this phantom. some fi...

In this paper, Gaussian and elliptic high pass filters are analyzed for image sharpening qualitatively and quantatively . The filters are implemented in frequency domain using matlab software. Experiments are performed to compare the performance of both the filters ,processed images are presented. The results demonstrate that elliptic yields better results.

Edge detection and edge enhancement techniques play an essential role in interpreting potential field data. This paper describes the application of various edge detection techniques to gravity data in order to delineate the edges of subsurface structures. The edge detection methods comprise analytic signal, total horizontal derivative (THDR), theta angle, tilt angle, hyperbolic of tilt angle (H...
