using the nanotechnology and decreasing the dimension of reinforcement particles to nanometer, outstanding mechanical properties are achieved in aluminum matrix nanocomposites. fabrication of aluminum matrix nanocomposites by casting is of great importance because of its simplicity, low cost and ease of the control of matrix microstructure. in this study, the aging behavior of nanocomposite sam...

extended-release matrix tablets of diltiazem hydrochloride (dtz) were prepared using waxy materials alone or in combination with kollidon sr. matrix waxy materials were carnauba wax (cw), bees wax (bw), cetyl alcohol (ca) and glyceryl monostearate (gms). dissolution studies were carried out by using a six stations usp xxii type 1 apparatus. the in vitro drug release study was done in 1000 ml ph...

let $p(lambda)$ be an $n$-square complex matrix polynomial, and $1 leq k leq n$ be a positive integer. in this paper, some algebraic and geometrical properties of the $k$-numerical range of $p(lambda)$ are investigated. in particular, the relationship between the $k$-numerical range of $p(lambda)$ and the $k$-numerical range of its companion linearization is stated. moreover, the $k$-numerical ...

the problem of pole assignment, also known as an eigenvalue assignment, in linear discrete-time periodic systems in discs was solved by a novel method which employs elementary similarity operations. the former methods tried to assign the points inside the unit circle while preserving the stability of the discrete time periodic system. nevertheless, now we can obtain the location of eigenvalues ...

objective(s) matrix metalloproteinases comprise a family of enzyme that is able to degrade components of extra cellular matrix. there are single nucleotide polymorphisms in the promoter regions of several genes with ability to influence cancer susceptibility. the aim of this study was to analyses association between mmp2 and mmp9 promoter polymorphisms and head and neck squamous cell carcinoma ...

 In this paper we characterize all $2times 2$ idempotent and nilpotent matrices over an integral domain and then we characterize all $2times 2$ strongly nil-clean matrices over a PID. Also, we determine when a $2times 2$ matrix  over a UFD is nil-clean.
