in this thesis protic and aprotic ammonium-based ionic liquids were synthesized and their surface tensions were measured in the range of 298-373k. the protics are alkyl ammonium-based ils with the carboxylate (formate, acetate, propionate) anion and aprotics are quaternary ammonium-based ils with bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide anion. capillary rise method was used for surface tension measure...

boron nitride semiconducting zigzag swcnt, $b_{cb}$$n_{cn}$$c_{1-cb-cn}$, as a potential candidate for making nanoelectronic devices was examined. in contrast to the previous dft calculations, wherein just one boron and nitrogen doping configuration have been considered, here for the average over all possible configurations, density of states (dos) was calculated in terms of boron and nitrogen ...

When studying the structural response of rubble mound breakwaters to wave loading, the knowledge of water surface fluctuations, pore pressure variations and related wave attenuation inside the porous structure is important since the pore pressures affect most responses, such as wave run-up, wave overtopping, reflections, transmission and the hydraulic and geotechnical stability of the breakwate...

It is very important to identify the source of sediment yield in a drainage basin for any practical soil conservation program. Clay minerals in litological units, can be used as an indicator for prediction of soil erosion. Marl and marly-limestone of Neogen red beds, Hezardarreh Formation and Quaternery alluvium, are exposed in the Lateshure watershed. 21 sampels from surface soils of diff...

Analytical analysis of a two-dimensional submerged body moving with a constant velocity in an inviscid incompressible fluid under gravity near a free surface is studied in this paper. This notion is one of the fundamental concepts in applied hydrodynamics. Experimental observations of water waves in large scale or laboratory observation in open channels is indicative of complex phenomenons taki...

Acid and saline seeps are an increasing problem in most parts of the World and Australia as well. They are areas of bare soil or reduced crop production. Recent laboratory, field, and remote sensing studies have explored the use of visible to short – wave infrared (VIS- SWIR; 400-2500 nm) reflectance data for characterizing the mineralogy of mine wastes, surface mineralogy of acid-saline affect...
