this paper presents the findings of experimental investigations into the effects of cutting speed, feed rate, depth of cut and approach angle on the machinability of titanium (grade-5) alloy. also the comparison for the two different cutting materials inserts polycrystalline diamond (pcd) and cubic boron nitride (cbn) with similar tool geometry for similar machining parameters is also carried o...

in this research, pomegranate arils are dehydrated by osmotic dehydration in 40, 50, and 60 % sucrose ‎solutions and at 45, 55 and 65 degrees c‎‏ ‏‎ and weight reduction, solids grain and water loss of the products ‎were measured at 60, 120 and 180 minutes of process. osmotic dehydration processes was modeled by ‎combination of neural network and fuzzy logic techniques (neuro-fuzzy) and respons...

this paper presents a hybrid method for the optimization of forging process of an aerofoil blade. preform shape and die parting-line angle are optimized in order to minimize the volume of the unfilled die cavity, material waste, forging forces. the overall optimization scheme used in this research work includes a multi-objective approach that is combination of response surface and finite elemen...

problematic dyes extensively used in different industries such as textile, paper, food, plasticsand cosmetics have undesirable environmental effects. white rot fungi demonstrating effective extracellularenzyme system, which is capable of degrading dyes and various xenobiotics. the aim of this study was tooptimize decolorization of reactive blue 19 (rb19) dye using phanerochaetechrysosporium. a ...

Anesthesiologists have been aware of the importance of optimal drug combination long ago and performed many investigations about the combined use of anesthetic agents. There are 3 classes of drug interaction: additive, synergistic, and antagonistic. These definitions of drug interaction suggest that a zero interaction model should exist to be used as a reference in classifying the interaction o...

objective(s): iscomatrix vaccines have now been shown to induce strong antigen-specific cellular or humoral immune responses to a broad range of antigens of viral, bacterial, parasite or tumor. in the present study, we investigated the role of iscomatrix charge in induction of a th1 type of immune response and protection against leishmania major infection in balb/c mice.  materials and methods:...

formaldehyde in small quantities is commonly analyzed by spectrophotometric methods. one of the most-commonly used spectrophotometric techniques for this purpose is based on the reaction with chromotropic acid. because of its simplicity, sensitivity, selectivity and its low cost, it is still widely used. investigations for replacing the concentrated sulfuric acid with other acids or using more ...
