By coupling of Fe2O3@SiO2 particles with metal organic Framework (MOF) the magnetic MOF structure was fabricated. Precipitation and hydrothermal methods were applied for synthesis of core and MOF. Silver nanoparticles were deposited on nickel based metal organic framework surface and magnetic Fe2O3@SiO2@MOF@Ag was obtained. Because of strong coupling between silver nanoparticles and metal organ...

One way of making learning English language interesting is through its gamified instruction, especially nowadays that most teachings are done virtually. Doing so, however, requires a valid framework. To construct such a framework a set of 22 peer reviewed papers on language learning and gamified teaching, from among 94 of such papers, was content analyzed and key concepts, and frequently used e...

In a recent Editorial for this journal, El-Jardali and Fadlallah proposed a new framework for Knowledge Translation (KT) in healthcare. Many such frameworks already exist; thus, new entrants to the field must be scrutinized in regard to their unique contributions to advancing understanding and practice. The El-Jardali and Fadlallah framework focuses on policy-level discussions, a relatively und...

We show that if we add any number of Cohen reals to the ground model then, in the generic extension, a locally compact scattered space has at most (2 ℵ0) V many levels of size ω. We also give a complete ZF C characterization of the cardinal sequences of regular scattered spaces. Although the classes of the regular and of the 0-dimensional scattered spaces are different, we prove that they have ...

The lower bound on the number of n-variable balanced symmetric functions over finite fields GF(p) presented in [1] is improved in this paper.

Over the last decennia, many systems for formal argumentation have been defined. The problem, however, is that these systems do not always satisfy reasonable properties. In this paper, we focus on the particular property that a conflict between two arguments cannot keep other unrelated arguments from becoming justified. Although this property appears obvious, it is in fact violated by several e...

This paper presents strategies and conditions for non-failing persuasion using a dialogue model using argumentation. A novel concept of the predicted knowledge of the other agent participating in the dialogue is introduced. In the dialogue model, an agent’s knowledge is updated as the dialogue proceeds; an argumentation framework is constructed from the current knowledge; and only the content o...

In this paper, the theory of generic structures is put in a general, unified framework. The framework is applied to Hrushovski’s [8] universal domains and Poizat’s [11] bicoloured fields. Of particular interest will be the conditions under which generic structures are saturated.
