Abstract: In this paper, we study a pessimistic linear bilevel multi-follower programming problem in a referential-uncooperative situation (for short, PLBMF-RU) where the followers are uncooperative while having cross reference to decision making information of the other followers. We first give a model and the solution definitions of PLBMF-RU, and then use a simple example to illustrate it. Fu...

This paper focused on a novel method of electroless plating ruthenium (Ru) on solid or porous substrates like porous stainless steel (PSS) discs or ceramic tubes. A novel complexing plating bath of Ru was developed. It is proven that Ru can be deposited directly on these substrates by the bath at a temperature of 328 K and strong alkaline environment. TGA, SEM, EDX and XRD confirmed the success...

Series of Copper Ruthenium (Cu-Ru) bimetallic catalysts supported on γ-Al2O3 with different metal loading are prepared and investigated for catalytic wet air oxidation of ammonia to nitrogen. The ammonia decomposition activity was studied at three different temperatures i.e. 150oC, 200oC, and 230 oC and it is found that catalytic activity increases with the increase in temperature along with th...

Background Chronic stress induces male reproductive dysfunction; however, the involved mechanisms are not clear. It has been suggested that the gonadotrophin-inhibitory hormone, known as RF-amide related peptide (RFRP) in mammalian species, may mediate this inhibitory effect of stress. The objective of the present study was to compare the effect of chronic stress and glucocorticoids receptor an...

The encapsulation of homogeneous chiral catalysts, e.g. Co(Salen) and Ru-TsDPEN, in the mesoporous cage of SBA-16 is demonstrated; the encapsulated catalysts show performance as good as that of the homogeneous catalysts, and can be recycled for more than 10 times without significant loss of catalytic performance.

hybrid nanocomposites of binary pt-ru/polyaniline were prepared by oxidative polymerization of aniline andformation pt and ru nanoparticles. the polymerization of aniline was carried out in the presence of potassiumhexa cyano platinate (iv) and ruthenium (iii) nitrosyl nitrate as oxidizing agents. during the reaction anilinemonomers undergo oxidation and form polyaniline (pani) whereas the redu...

In previous studies, the neuroprotective effect of progestrone in diffuse traumatic brain injury has been shown. This study used mifepristone (RU-486), a potent progesterone receptor antagonist, to evaluatethe hypothesis that the neuroprotective effect of progesterone in traumatic brain injury is mediated by the progesterone receptors. The ovariectomized rats were divided into 6 groups. Brain i...
