Abstract Business ethicists disagree on whether John Rawls’s political philosophy can be applied to their questions and concerns. They concur, however, that, if warranted, such an application of his theory would highly instructive for the field. This article scrutinizes that assumption. The paper examines what extent a normative import into business ethics indeed render adequate results. Highli...

Because of continuous blood transfusions, thalassemia patients are subjected to peroxidative tissue injury by the secondary iron overload. In accordance, analysis of serum from 42 beta-thalassemia patients, aged 4 to 40 years, showed that the mean concentrations of conjugated diene lipid hydroperoxides (CD), lipoperoxides evaluated as malondialdehyde/ thiobarbituric acid (MDA/TBA) adducts, and ...

Ultrasound injection effect on a magnetic Bragg peak of yttrium iron garnet has been studied by quasielastic neutron scattering. The is vastly enhanced with decreasing temperature. energy width increases proportionally to the square root sample temperature increase induced ultrasound injection. Based liquid model, estimated effective mass becomes light when domain walls are removed under field....

during the course of our studies on archaeometallurgy in southeastern iran, we tried to survey the triangle of the sirdjān, neiriz and shahr- e- bābak. as a result, remains of old iron mining residues of smelting furnaces, and iron smelting slag heaps were observed and recorded. a few samples of iron ore and smelting slag have been analysed classically and instrumentally. according to the acq...

This paper addresses the problem of adapting a generic 3D face model to a human face of which the frontal and profile views are given. Assuming that a set of feature points have been detected on both views the adaptation procedure initializes with a rigid transformation of the model aiming to minimize the distances of the 3D model feature nodes from the calculated 3D coordinates of the 2D featu...

Drop size distribution in a mixer-settler is an essential design parameter, as obtaining drop size distribution will result in optimum performance of equipment. In this paper for obtaining drop size, several experiments have been performed with a single stage horizontal mixer-settler. A video technique has been used in order to measure the drop size in the mixer-settler with the help of a digit...

Abstract Carbon-based materials are the spearhead of research in multiple fields nanotechnology. Moreover, their role as stationary phase chromatography is gaining relevance. We investigate a material consisting multiwall carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles towards its use mixed-mode material. The idea to immobilize ion exchange on CNTs stable matrix for proce...
