a semi-batch crystallization system is used to determine growth kinetics and morphology of barium carbonate crystals, under a constant ph value and constant temperature in the various relative supersaturations. results show that crystal growth rate satisfies a first-order kinetic expression at high relative supersaturation, while at relative supersaturation values lower than 3,  the kinetic exp...

Sentential adverbs are often assumed to be situated in front of the verb phrase in arbitrary order. In a recent monograph, however, Cinque (1999) claims that the relative order of sentential adverbs may, in principle, be universally fixed. In this paper I first give a brief presentation of Cinque’s proposal. Then I present a pilot study of sentential adverbs in English and Swedish. This study i...

The pancake problem is a famous search problem where the objective is to sort a sequence of objects (pancakes) through a minimal number of prefix reversals (flips). The best approaches for the problem are based on heuristic search with abstraction (pattern database) heuristics. We present a new class of abstractions for the pancake problem called relative-order abstractions. Relative-order abst...

Relative worst-order analysis is a technique for assessing the relative quality of online algorithms. We survey the most important results obtained with this technique and compare it with other quality measures.

to determine the relative salt tolerance and/or resistance in seedlings of pistachio genotypes, four pot experimentswere conducted. in experiments 1 and 2, the effects of salinity on growth indices were studid. experiments were donein the form of split plot based on rcbd. in each experiment, mainplots consisted of different electrical conductivitiesof irrigation water (eciws). in experiment 1, ...
