a study of the atmospheric particulate size distribution of total suspended particulate matter(tspm) and associated heavy metals concentrations has been carried out for the urban part of sarajevo city,bosnia and herzegovina. urban particles (n=150) were collected using a high volume air sampler equippedwith a 6-stage impactor. apart from fe which has been determined by flame atomic absorption s...

dissolution pressure and nozzle temperature effects on particle size and distribution were investigated for ress (rapid expansion of supercritical solution) process. supercritical co2 was used as solvent and ibuprofen was applied as the model component in all runs. the resulting ibuprofen nano-particles (about 50 nm in optimized runs) were analyzed by sem and laser diffraction particle size ana...

abstract in recent years, many researchers have attempted to estimate the soil hydraulic functions (e.g. soil moisture characteristics curve, and hydraulic conductivity function) using particle-size distribution (psd) curve. in these studies, an accurate mathematical representation of psd is required for fitting the observed data. so far, some mathematical models were developed with different l...

empirical studies have shown that the size distribution of firms can be described as a lognormal or pareto distribution. however, these studies have focused on developed countries and little attention has been devoted to developing countries. using the variable of number of employees as a measure of firm size, this paper investigates the shape of firm size distribution in the food & beverages i...

in this study, sio2 nanoparticles were successfully synthesized via sol-gel precipitation method and the effects of different parameters such as temperature, ethanol, ammonia and tetraethylorthosilicate (teos) contents based on water were investigated in a systematic way applying taguchi experimental design method. it was found that, among all the investigated parameters, ethanol as a co-solven...

Graphical size distribution is widely used in different fields of science and studies related to powders, droplets, bubbles, and pores. However, in some condition it may also be necessary to express the size distribution quantitatively. In spite of there being several suggested ways to quantify size distribution in the literature, some of these approaches are not applicable for many methods and...
