Analytical Characterization Of Anthocyanins From Natural Products By Reverse-phase Liquid Chromatography-photodiode Array-electrospray Ionization-ion Trap-time Of Flight Mass Spectrometry
(Chemistry & Biochemistry, 2011-03-03)
Anthocyanins are known to be one of the most powerful phytochemical antioxidant and believed to have a positive influence on a variety of health conditions. Numerous studies continue on these compounds that are readily ...
Mixed Integer Programming Models For Selecting Ground-level Ozone Control Strategies
(Industrial & Manufacturing Engineering, 2011-07-14)
Under the Clean Air Act (CAA) in 1990, the U.S Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) was required to set National Ambient Air Quality Standards (NAAQS) for six common air pollutants that are considered harmful to public ...
Mathematical Optimization Techniques For Managing Selective Catalytic Reduction For Coal-fired Power Plants
(Industrial & Manufacturing Engineering, 2011-07-14)
Coal is one of the most important energy sources in the U.S. However, it is also one of the biggest air polluters where the major emissions generated from coal combustion are oxides of nitrogen (NOx). NOx leads to ozone ...
Time Depedent Queuing Models Of The National Airspace
(Industrial & Manufacturing Engineering, 2011-07-14)
Air transportation in the US system has dramatically changed in the past few decades. The National Airspace System (NAS) has increasingly become congested. A high volume of air traffic demand is one of the major challenges ...
Synthesis And Characterization Of Platinum And Carbon Nanoparticle In Benzene By Electric Plasma Discharge In Ultrasonic Cavitation
(Materials Science & Engineering, 2011-07-14)
Nanoparticles are of interest due to the high number of atoms located on the surface. This high surface area is conductive to higher catalytic efficiency than normal seen in bulk metals. Of numerous Nanoparticles catalysts ...
Synthesis And Characterization Of Carbon Magnetic Nanoparticles
(Materials Science & Engineering, 2011-07-14)
Carbon incorporated iron nanoparticles (Fe-CNPs) were successfully synthesized using ultrasonic cavitation in Benzene. This novel method of carbon nanoparticle (CNP) synthesis is a very cost-effective and versatile as one ...
Consideration Of Compressibility Effects For Applied-back-pressure Dynamic Well Control Response To A Gas Kick In Managed Pressure Drilling Operations
(Mechanical Engineering, 2011-07-14)
Managed Pressure Drilling (MPD) operations offer the ability to control a relatively small gas kick dynamically, without shutting in the well using blowout preventers. One currently employed method of dynamic well control ...
Numerical Modeling Of A Parallel Plate Electrowetting-on-Dielectric (EWOD) Device
(Mechanical Engineering, 2011-07-14)
Numerical modeling and simulations have been performed in this study that focuses on modeling the fluid dynamics of an Electrowetting-on-Dielectric (EWOD) device. The case to be modeled in the present study is a droplet ...
Molecular Systematics Of The Coffee Snakes, Genus Ninia (Colubridae: Dipsadinae)
(Biology, 2011-10-11)
Although previous studies have addressed issues relating to the systematics and taxonomy in the snake genus Ninia, the evolutionary history of the group remains largely unknown. Preliminary morphological studies have been ...
First Measurements Of The Low Energy Tail (LET) Down To 0 eV Using Auger Photoelectron Coincidence Spectroscopy (APECS) In Ag (100) And Cu (100)
(Physics, 2011-03-03)
We present the Auger Photoelectron Coincidence Spectroscopy (APECS) measurements of Ag (100) and Cu (100) over a full range of emitted energies from 0 eV to 81eV. The coincidence measurements were successful in separating ...
