This paper considers the problem of selecting the most appropriate ethylene propylene diene monomer (EPDM), which is a polyolefin with a variety of usages in different areas. The metallocene catalyst, bis(2-phenyl indenyl) zirconium dichloride ((2-PhInd)2ZrCl2) was synthesized by a modified method and applied to the terpolymerization of ethylene, propylene, and 5-ethylidiene-2-norbornene (ENB)....

One of the biggest issues in railroad planning and design is determining optimal route. After route variants are determined, major challenge to identify select criteria which will be used for analysis evaluation variants.

The Heterogeneous Wireless Network (HWN) integrates different wireless networks into one common network. The integrated networks often overlap coverage in the same wireless service areas, leading to the availability of a great variety of innovative services based on user demands in a costefficient manner. Joint Admission Control (JAC) handles all new or handoff service requests in the HWN. It c...
