This study investigates the feasibility of co-firing fly ashes from different boilers, circulating fluidized beds (CFB) or stokers as a sustainable material in alkali activators for ground granulated blast-furnace slag (GGBS). The mixture ratio of GGBS and co-firing fly ashes is 1:1 by weight. The results indicate that only CF fly ash of CFB boilers can effectively stimulate the potential chara...

Despite a shortage of animal feed in Iran, cereal stubble is often underutilized due to agro-economic reasons. On the other hand, lambs fed with a conventional fattening ration deposit a considerable amount of fat; therefore, this experiment was conducted aimed at better utilization of cereal stubble and reducing the fat content of lamb carcasses. Fat-tailed Mehraban and Ghezel ram lambs were p...

We consider a mixture of one-dimensional strongly interacting Fermi gases with up to six components, subjected to a longitudinal harmonic confinement. In the limit of infinitely strong repulsions we provide an exact solution which generalizes the one for the two-component mixture. We show that an imbalanced mixture under harmonic confinement displays partial spatial separation among the compone...

We study estimation of mixture models for problems in which multiple views of the instances are available. Examples of this setting include clustering web pages or research papers that have intrinsic (text) and extrinsic (references) attributes. Our optimization criterion quantifies the likelihood and the consensus among models in the individual views; maximizing this consensus minimizes a boun...

The Falicov-Kimball model consists of spinless electrons and classical particles (ions) on a lattice. The electrons hop between nearest neighbor sites while the ions do not. We consider the model with equal numbers of ions and electrons and with a large on-site attractive force between ions and electrons. For densities 1/4 and 1/5 the ion configuration in the ground state had been proved to be ...

This paper presents an extension to our knowledge of ∆v = 1 and 2 bands carbon monoxide in the ground state, measured by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy glow discharge formamide-nitrogen mixture. Lines declared are up v 30 for 24 band, use both InSb MCT detectors, which have not been laboratory before. Dunham parameters obtained fitting lines presented as well comparison other authors. ...
