We study the Γ-convergence of the power-law functionals

The cross-section of the thermal neutron capture 41 Ar(n,γ) 42 Ar( t 1/2 =32.9 y) reaction was measured by irradiating a 40 Ar sample at high-flux reactor Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL) Grenoble, France. signature two-neutron has been observed measuring growth curve and identifying 1524.6 keV γ-lines shorter-lived K(12.4 h) β − daughter Ar. Our preliminary value cross section is 240(80) mb 25.3 m...

Background: The effect of low dose radiation on immune system is shown. Ionizing radiation can affect cytokine production and polarization of T helper cells. Objective: The current study focused on ionizing radiation in Ukrainian children residing in a contaminated area with clinical irritable bowel syndrome. Method: Our study included 75 rural children population aged 4-18 yrs, who lived in a ...

In this paper we study the asymptotic behaviour via Γ-convergence of some integral functionals Fε which model some multi-dimensional structures and depend explicitly on the linearized strain tensor. The functionals Fε are defined in particular classes of functions with bounded deformation while the limit problem is set in the usual framework of Sobolev spaces or BD(Ω). We also construct an exam...

We study homogenization by Γ-convergence of functionals of type Z Ω W “ x ε ,∇φ(x) ” dx, where Ω ⊂ RN is a bounded open set, φ ∈ W 1,p(Ω; Rm) and p > 1, when the 1-periodic integrand W : RN ×Mm×N → [0, +∞] is not of p-polynomial growth. Our homogenization technique can be applied when m = N and W has a singular behavior of type W (x, ξ) → +∞ as detξ → 0. However, our technique is not consistent...

We study homogenization by Γ-convergence, with respect to the L1-strong convergence, of periodic multiple integrals in W 1,∞ when the integrand can take infinite values outside of a convex bounded open set of matrices.

Iron-based catalysts were developed to achieve the hydrodechlorination (HDC)/oxidation of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) from thermal desorption off-gas, and Fe3O4/γ-Al2O3 showed higher dechlorination efficiency than Fe2O3/γ-Al2O3. The optimal Fe loading resulted in 95.5% degradation 76.9% toxicity reduction gaseous PCBs, exhibited excellent stability during a 60-h test. gas chromatography–ma...

In the present paper, an investigation on natural and anthropic radioactivity heavy metals content in a basalt aggregate for concrete from Sicily, Southern Italy, was performed as case study. particular, evaluation of specific activity radium-226, thorium-232, potassium-40 caesium-137 radionuclides by using High-Purity Germanium (HPGe) γ-ray spectrometry, together with estimation several indexe...
