This paper analyzes a family of rules for bankruptcy problems that generalizes the Talmud rule (T) and encompasses both the constrained equal-awards rule (A) and the constrained equal-losses rule (L). The family is defined by means of a parameter θ ∈ [0, 1] that can be interpreted as a measure of the distributive power of the rule. We provide a systematic study of the structural properties of t...

The temperature variations of the 6 3 Cu, 6 5 Cu and 5 V N M R spectra and 5 V spin-lattice relaxation rate 1 / T have been measured in a thiospinel CuV 2 S 4 . Drastic changes in the spectra and relaxation rates were observed at the charge density wave (CDW) transition temperature. With decreasing temperature T, 1 /Ti decreases exponentially due to the C D W transition (75 K < T< 90 K). The en...

In this paper the mechanism of Default Rules for narrowing-based languages proposed in 24] is adapted to lazy narrowing. Every partial deenition of a function can be completed with a default rule. In a concrete function call, the default rule is applicable when the normal ones determine that they cannot compute the value of the call. Furthermore , when the goal has variables the evaluation mech...

A self-made PMIA asymmetric nanofiltration membrane was used for arsenic removal from drinking water by NF process. Effects of feed concentration, operating pressure, pH and existing ions on As(V) removal were investigated. Experimental results showed that As(V) rejection was higher than 90% in the range of investigated As feed concentrations. The As(V) rejection increased slightly with pressur...
