In this paper, the solubility of CO2 in AMP solution have been measured at temperature range of ( 293, 303 ,313,323) K.The amine concentration ranges studied are (2.0, 2.8, and 3.4) M. A solubility apparatus was used to measure the solubility of CO2 in AMP solution on samples of flue gases from Thermal and Central Power Plants of Esfahan Steel Company. The modified Kent Eisenberg model was used...

the solubility of co2 in the primary, secondary, tertiary and sterically hindered amine aqueous solutions at various conditions was studied. in the present work, the modified kent-eisenberg (m-ke), the extended debye-hückel (e-dh) and the pitzer models were employed to study the solubility of co2 in amine aqueous solutions. two explicit equations are presented to evaluate the concentration of h...

We consider a bank runs model à la Diamond and Dybvig (1983) with a continuum of agent types, indexed by the degree of patience. Much of our understanding based on the two-type model must be modified. The endogenous determination of a cutoff type is central to the analysis. In the case where the bank can credibly commit to a contract, the optimal contract results in socially excessive withdrawa...

A general proof of the Dybvig-Ingersoll-Ross Theorem on the monotonicity of long forward rates is presented. Some inconsistencies in the original proof of this theorem are discussed.

This dissertation considers algorithms for determining a few of the largest singular values and corresponding vectors of large sparse matrices by solving equivalent eigenvalue problems. The procedure is based on a method by Golub and Kent for estimating eigenvalues of equvalent eigensystems using modified moments. The asynchronicity in the computations of moments and eigenvalues makes this meth...

report, was the deep divergence of the rosada lineage at the base of the Conolophus clade. “The species alters the current thinking about the timing of diversification of land iguanas, which was previously supposed to have occurred in the Pleistocene era,” the researchers write. “In addition to the taxonomic implications, this form, which we recognise as a good species, is very important becaus...
