the evaluation of treatment characteristics and sludge properties of an upflow anaerobic sludge blanket (uasb) process was investigated using a pilot-scale 1.15 m3reactor. the uasb, inoculated with digester sludge, was operated at a hydraulic retention time of 8 h at sewage temperatures ranging from 10.6 to 27.7 °c for more than 1100 days. the stable removal efficiencies for total codcr and ss...

In this paper, control of a non-isothermal continuous stirred tank reactor in which two parallel autocatalytic reactions take place has been addressed. The reactor shows chaotic behavior for a certain set of reactor parameters. In order to control the product concentration, an optimal state feedback controller has been designed. Since concentrations of reactor species are ...

background: the singh index is an inexpensive simple method to evaluate bone density, commonly used to assess osteoporosis is based on the radiological appearance of the trabecular bone structure of the proximal femur on a plain antero-posterior (ap) radiograph. the purpose of this study was to compare between singh index and bone mineral density measurement using dual energy x-ray absorptiomet...

Various methods are presented to control the attitude of satellite due to lack of information of yaw axis attitude so far. In this paper, a new method is used which is more general and is applicable to all types of satellites, with at least one controller. This method is not limited to YAW axis and can control the two other axes as well. One feature of this approach is the ability to be modi...
