The paper describes a reuse methodology, which ease the creation of testbenches. In our approach, beside providing a library of precompiled basic functions and entities, the designer receives descriptions of complete test concepts (e.g. macro-oriented stimulation or comparison of two simulations), including a source code example, called template, and a guide for the adaption of the template to ...

The automotive shredder residue (ASR) is generated as an inevitable waste after the shredding process of end-of-life vehicles. Typically, ASR ends up in a landfill absence any existing processing options. comprises rubber, wood, plastics, textile, metals, and other materials, such paint glass (10%), which can be recycled reused. Given these attributes, potential feedstock for energy production ...

The aim of this study was to understand the efficacy widely available minerals as dual-function adsorbers and weighter materials, for removal toxic azo-type textile dyes when combined with coprecipitation processes. Specifically, adsorption an anionic direct dye measured on various mineral types without secondary coagulation iron hydroxide (‘FeOOH’) in both a bench-scale stirred tank, well inno...

We will describe the code Yee bench. This serial benchmark code has been developed at PDC and the Parallel and Scientific Computing Institute (PSCI). Yee bench is a memory bound code. Results for Yee bench on some of the computers available at PDC are presented. We demonstrate that the performance of Yee bench can be predicted using the results from the DAXPY part of the stream2 memory bandwidt...

Transfer of biopharmaceutical inventions between firms has bottlenecks in upstream development that suggest a role for repurposing mechanisms well before the clinical trials stage.

In this study fullerene functionalized using oleum (H2SO4·SO3), followed by the hydrolysis of the intermediate cyclosulfated fullerene as well as  an oxidizing agent was employed to functionalize the fullerenes. Ruthenium was then added by the impregnation method or deposited on the functionalized fullerene. Subsequent to this step, Response Surface Methodol...
