In this research, a new technetium-99m generator has been developed with addition of Cerium oxide to alumina column.  The adsorption behaviors of 99Mo in the form of molybdate and 99mTc in the form of pertechnetate on CeO2/Al2O3 was investigated and showed that the adsorption capacity of molybdate on this generator is higher than usual generator using Al2O3. Ceric ions were selected as an addit...

PRISM (Parameter-elevation Regressions on Independent Slopes Model) is a climate analysis system that uses point data, a digital elevation model (DEM), and other spatial datasets to generate gridded estimates of annual, monthly and event-based climatic parameters (Daly et al. 1994). Originally developed in 1991 for precipitation estimation, PRISM has been generalized and applied successfully to...

This paper discusses a study of the impacts of ambient temperature gradients along electric power transmission lines on power transfer capability limits. This investigation is performed through the use of novel multi-segment, non-uniform, temperature-dependent line models, which are used to capture the non-uniformity of line parameters caused by ambient temperature variations. For demonstration...

 APSIM(Agricultural Production Systems Simulator) is a software system which allows (a) models of crop and pasture production, residue decomposition, soil water and nutrient flow, and erosion to be readily reconfigured to simulate various production systems and (b) soil and crop management to be dynamically simulated using conditional rules.  A key innovation is change from a core concept of ...

Context-awareness has been successfully included in the mobile phone applications due mainly to the presence of numerous sensors and the access to several communication networks. Therefore, we present a Context-Aware Web Content Generator Based on Personal Tracking, which uses the user context information obtained by mobile devices to generate content for a large number of web applications. Whi...

With the increasing penetration of wind energy into power system, wind energy conversion systems (WECSs) should be able to control the power flow for limited as well as maximum power point tracking. In contrast to the traditional pitch angle control, this paper focusses on field oriented speed control of permanent magnet synchronous generator (PMSG) for controlling the active power flow based o...

The Ctadel code generator is a tool for the automatic generation of PDE based scientiic models and generates eecient code for various computational platforms from an independent high level language description. It was applied for the generation of code to compute the dynamical tendencies within the Hirlam weather forecast model. In this paper we will use Ctadel for the implementation of numeric...
