in this investigation, continuous cooling transformations and microstructures have been studied in detail in a low carbon ti-nb bearing microalloyed steel by means of dilatometry, metallography and hardness measurements. the results indicate that when the cooling rate is greater than 1˚c/s, the dilatation curve is associated with a major dilatation at relatively low transformation temperatures,...

It has been known that the atmospheric neutrino anomaly (See, e.g., Ref. ) can be accounted for by dominant νμ ↔ ντ oscillations with almost maximal mixing. According to the most up-to-date result of the two flavor analysis of νμ ↔ ντ with 1289 day SuperKamiokande data , the allowed region of the oscillation parameters at 90%CL is 0.88 < sin 2θatm ≤ 1, 1.6 × 10−3eV < ∆matm < 4× 10−3eV. Two flav...

comnode classification within membrane residue curves (m-rcms) currently hinges on lyapunov’s theorem and therefore the computation of mathematically complex eigenvalues. this paper presents an alternative criterion for the classification of nodes within m-rcms based on the total membrane flux at node compositions. this paper demonstrates that for a system exhibiting simple permeation behaviour...

to study the effects of soil amendments on physical and hydraulic properties of a saline-sodic sandy clay loam soil, a field experiment was carried out as a complete block design with three replications. the treatments in this research consisted of control (b), 10 ton ha-1 gypsum (g), 10 ton ha-1 urban solid compost (c), three levels of vinyl alcohol acrylic acid (s1= 0.05%, s2= 0.1%, s3= 0.2%)...

cash flow forecasting is an indispensable tool for construction companies, and is essential for the survivalof any contractor at all stages of the work. the time available for a detailed pre-tender cash flow forecast is oftenlimited. therefore, contractors require simpler and quicker techniques which would enable them to forecast cash flowwith reasonable accuracy. forecasting s-curves in constr...
