in the present study, hydrilla verticillata biomass was investigated as a novel biosorbent for the uptake of basic dye malachite green from its aqueous solution. kinetic and equilibrium studies were carried out in batch process. batch adsorption experiments were conducted to study the effect of ph, temperature, sorbent dosage, initial dye concentration, and contact time for the removal malachit...

task graph scheduling is a multi-objective optimization and np-hard problem. in this paper a new algorithm on homogeneous multiprocessors systems is proposed. basically, scheduling algorithms are targeted to balance the two parameters of time and energy consumption. these two parameters are up to a certain limit in contrast with each other and improvement of one causes reduction in the other on...

we have simulated the carrier concentration and temporal response characteristics of a back-gated metal- semiconductor-metal (bg-msm) photodetector in one dimension as a function of optical pulse position on the active region in an equilibrium condition (without bias voltage to the photodetector). we have adopted a nonlinear ambipolar transport model to simulate the behavior of photo-generated ...

gooseberry seed (phyllanthus acidus) was used as an adsorbent to determine its feasibility for the removal of cr(vi). various parameters such as ph, temperature, contact time, initial metal concentration and adsorbent dosage were investigated to determine the biosorption performance. equilibrium was attained within 60 minutes and maximum removal of 96% was achieved under the optimum conditions ...

We first focus in Chapter 2 on infrared effects in finite–temperature quantum field theory. We propose a simple mathematical method (based on the largest–time equation and the Dyson–Schwinger equations) which allows systematic calculations of the change of density in energy/particles in heat–bath during a scattering/decay of external particles within the heat bath. A careful analysis reveals th...

The paper concerns optimization and equilibrium problems with the so-called equilibrium constraints (MPEC and EPEC), which frequently appear in applications to operations research. These classes of problems can be naturally unified in the framework of multiobjective optimization with constraints governed by parametric variational systems (generalized equations, variational inequalities, complem...
