SONET/WDM networks using wavelength add-drop multiplexing can be constructed using certain graph decompositions used to form a `grooming', consisting of unions of certain primitive rings. The existence of such decompositions when every pair of sites employs no more than 1 8 of the wavelength capacity is determined , with few possible exceptions, when the ring size is a multiple of four.

SO2 capacity of the obtained TMG-AlPO-5/cordierite honeycomb ceramic (CHC) adsorbent was measured to be 1.13 mol per mol TMG. More importantly, compared with literature reported supported ionic liquids, it is featured by a significantly improved adsorption rate (t0.9 reduced from >30 min to ∼0.1 min) and negligible pressure drop.

As an efficient energy consumption hydraulic structure applied in deep-buried tunnel drainage system, the rate and inflow capacity of baffle-drop shafts were been influenced seriously by shaft structural parameters. Based on a scale model test Realizable k–ε model, flow regimes, maximum discharge, outflow velocity, drop with different baffle angles spacings experimentally numerically investigat...

In this paper, we numerically investigate the effects of surfactant on dropdrop interactions in a 2D shear flow using a coupled level-set and immersed interface approach proposed in (Xu et al., J. Comput. Phys., 212 (2006), 590–616). We find that surfactant plays a critical and nontrivial role in drop-drop interactions. In particular, we find that the minimum distance between the drops is a non...

drop size distribution in a mixer-settler is an essential design parameter, as obtaining drop size distribution will result in optimum performance of equipment. in this paper for obtaining drop size, several experiments have been performed with a single stage horizontal mixer-settler. a video technique has been used in order to measure the drop size in the mixer-settler with the help of a digit...
