In copper heap leaching structures, the ore is leached by an acidic solution. After dissolving the ore mineral, the heap is drained off in the acidic solution using a drainage system (consisting of a network of perforated polyethylene pipes and gravelly drainage layers) and is, then, transferred to the leaching plant for copper extraction where the copper is extracted and the remaining solution...

We show the feasibility of controlling the magnetic permeability of optical semiconductor devices on InP-based photonic integration platforms. We have achieved the permeability control of GaInAsP/InP semiconductor waveguides by combining the waveguide with a metamaterial consisting of gate-controlled split ring resonators. The split-ring resonators interact magnetically with light travelling in...

Wistar/Furth rats were made nephrotic by daily administration of amino-nucleoside of puromycin, and the ultrastructural localization of horseradish peroxidase (mol wt 40,000) in the renal glomerulus was studied from 1 min to 20 hr after intravenous injection of the tracer. In control rats, peroxidase permeated the endothelial fenestrae, the basement membrane, and the epithelial slits, and was p...

The ion permeability of the membrane junctions between Chironomus salivary gland cells is strongly depressed by treatments that are generally known to inhibit energy metabolism. These treatments include prolonged cooling at 6 degrees -8 degrees C, and exposure to dinitrophenol, cyanide, oligomycin, and N-ethylmaleimide. Intracellular injection of ATP appears to prevent depression of junctional ...

A variety of clay specimens (Kaolin, Belfast Upper Boulder Clay and Belfast Sleech) were subjected to British Standards Triaxial Permeability Tests and Accelerated Permeability Tests in order to examine how the permeability predicted (under uniform effective stresses and conditions) varied depending on the testing method adopted. The specimens were then freeze-dried to preserve their post-test ...

Ma, Thomas Y., Gary K. Iwamoto, Neil T. Hoa, Vimesh Akotia, Ali Pedram, Michel A. Boivin, and Hamid M. Said. TNFinduced increase in intestinal epithelial tight junction permeability requires NFB activation. Am J Physiol Gastrointest Liver Physiol 286: G367–G376, 2004; 10.1152/ajpgi.00173.2003.—Crohn’s disease (CD) patients have an abnormal increase in intestinal epithelial permeability. The def...

This review addresses classical questions concerning microvascular permeabiltiy in the light of recent experimental work on intact microvascular beds, single perfused microvessels, and endothelial cell cultures. Analyses, based on ultrastructural data from serial sections of the clefts between the endothelial cells of microvessels with continuous walls, conform to the hypothesis that different ...

In this paper, we report an analysis of pressed paper in terms of porosity and permeability. Previously, we reported a pressed paper that exhibits decreased porosity and permeability. Additionally, its applications into programmed sample delivery as well as flow rate control were reported. However, there is a need for a theoretical analysis of pressed paper in terms of porosity and permeability...

This work is a primary achievement in studying the CO2 and N2–oil systems. To predict gas-liquid relative permeability curves, a Shan-Chen type multicomponent multiphase lattice Boltzmann model for two-phase flow through 2D porous media is developed. Periodic and bounce back boundary conditions are applied to the model with the Guo scheme for the external body force (i.e.,...
