Abstract Ceramic polymer materials have great future applications in the field of fireproof materials. However, ceramic polyolefins shortcomings such as few available inorganic fillers, high sintering temperature, and low flexural strength. Therefore, achieving rapid ethylene‐propylene‐diene rubber (EPDM) is an urgent problem that needs to be solved. Herein, we prepared EPDM using pyrophyllite ...

Surveys were conducted in malaria-endemic villages in the southern province of Attapeu, Lao PDR during various seasons over a 3-year period. All-night mosquito landing collections, blood surveys and a case-control study were conducted. Plasmodium falciparum was the predominant species, and slide positivity rates were higher during the transition/dry season compared with the wet season. Anophele...

Sir,?I send you an extract from Herodotus describing how the early Egyptians protected themselves from mosquito bit and at the same time from malaria. The mesh of the hshing e must have been very fine to prevent the ingress of i^n0P'1? or Culex. The custom of sleeping on the flat roofs ot houses is still common in Egypt and the small tower risi ? above the roof is found in the representations o...

Otomotiv, beyaz eşya, savunma sanayi, uçak ve uzay sanayinde kullanılan bazı parçaların yüksek mukavemetli olmasının yanında aynı zamanda tok darbe dayanımlı olması da istenir. Bu çalışmada, ana matris malzeme olarak mühendislik polimerleri sınıfında yer alan poliamit 6 (PA6) polimeri kullanılmıştır. Katkısız PA6 ile ağırlık %5 oranında cam bilya (CB) katkılı (PA6-5CB), %15 elyaf (CE) takviyeli...

This paper presents a control synthesis approach for discrete event systems modelled by ordinary Petri Nets (PN) to solve a forbidden state problem. The PN herein considered are transitions controllable and contain measurable and non measurable transitions. The proposed PN controller is synthesised using the influence paths of the forbidden transitions. The latter are deduced from the PN reacha...
