a combined electrodeposition-etaas technique has been applied to the analysis of pb, cd, co, ni, cr and mn in biological samples in order to overcome interferences and to minimize sample pretreatment. it requires minimal sample preparation with the electrolysis process aiding partial decomposition of the organic matrix, adequate for the release and deposition of trace elements. in an initial el...

this study investigates the vertical replacement of salts, variability of electrical conductivity (ec) and soil acidity (ph) due to direct electrical current. a plexiglas cylinder 100 cm in depth with a 14 cm radius was used as a soil container and filled with uniform moist soil to 90 cm. during the experiments, the bottom 10 cm of soil in the cylinder was kept saturated. a steel bar was used a...

introduction: as the ability to repair cartilage tissue in body is limited, finding a suitable method for cartilage regeneration has gained the attention of many scholars. for this purpose, scaffold structure and morphology, along with cell culture on it, can be a novel method to treat cartilage injuries, osteoarthritis. methods: in this study, polyhydroxybutyrate (phb) is selected as the scaff...

electro-facies is a unit of the vertical sediments sequence on the wire-line logs that can be differentiated from the upper and lower units. for detection of the electro-facies interval in kangan and upper dalan formations in south pars gas field, wire-line log and core data analysis (wells a, b, c and d) were used. note, only core data analysis in well a were available. first, thin-sections st...

objective: carpal tunnel syndrome (cts) is the most frequent local neuropathy which often relapses despite treatment. this study is performed to determine the frequency of obsessive compulsive disorders in cts as a main reason for relapse in patients referring to electro-diagnosis clinic during year 2007. methods: in a case control study we considered two groups of subjects: with cts (cases) an...

resistance spot welding is an important manufacturing process in the automotive industry for assembling bodies. the quality and strength of the welds and, by extension, the body is mainly defined by the quality of the weld nuggets. the most effective parameters in this process are sheet material, geometry of electrodes, electrode force, current intensity, welding time and sheet thickness. the p...

in this paper, a new control method based on fel electro hydraulic servo control withnonlinear flux and internal friction, has been presented. the new approach based oncontrollers combined by a classic pd controller and a fuzzy controller is smart. this newtechnique has a good ability to control the performance and stability. simulations have beencarried out in matlab environment and the result...

in this study, the performance of electro-coagulation in combination with aluminum sacrificial anode, in removal of zinc and copper has been investigated. several parameters, such as pollutant concentration, ph, electrical potential, cod, turbidity and contact time were studied to achieve a higher removal capacity. variable concentrations (5-50-500 ppm) of zinc and copper solutions were prepare...

to resolve handling problem of nanoparticles, due to their small size, a new methodology of electro-spraying and freeze-drying was developed for colloidal nanoparticles of silica and titania to transform them to solid macro-scale nanoparticle assemblies.  the assemblies were then redispersed in an aqueous system to investigate the effect of formulation of original solutions and the process para...
