Opis:
Adsorption behaviour of copper (II) oxide particles (CuO-Ps) for the removal of Alkali Blue (AB) was studied. Different adsorption variables such as contact time, initial concentration and pH for the adsorption process were investigated by batch adsorption studies. FTIR was carried out to determine the functional groups present at the surface of the particle with functional groups such as –OH, C=C, C-H, C≡C detected. The percentage removal and optimum contact time for the removal of AB was 84.8% at 10 min. The experimental isotherms data were analyzed using Langmuir, Temkin, Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich (D-R) isotherms and it was observed that AB fits closely to Langmuir with R2 value of 0.884. Kinetics studies shows that the adsorption process fits better to pseudo-second order with the experimental values of qe 4.242 been closer to the calculated values of the qe 4.108. Effect of pH shows that it adsorb better at the initial pH of 5.30. Lower value of mean square energy of 0.707 kJ/mol indicates that the adsorption process is physical. The results indicated that copper (II) oxide particle can be used as a low-cost adsorbent for the removal of AB from aqueous solutions.

Opis:
Influence of geosynthetics inserted into cohesive granular soil was obviously investigated using geosynthetics-soil-interaction-testing device (ITD). Observations were already made during undertaking pull-out test, and then the results revealed that a correlation between shear stress and normal stress exhibits non-linear behaviour. In this paper, three approaches of trend-lines namely linear, logarithmic, and polynomial were compared. From analysis, polynomial trend line gave the best correlation among others. The final equation is very important part when estimating more accurate values of cohesion and friction angle design purpose.

Opis:
The purpose of this study is to investigate a structure’s response to blast loading when composite columns are used instead of conventional reinforced concrete (RC) cross sections and when a conventional structure is retrofitted with braces. The study includes conducting dynamic analyses on three different structures: a conventional reference RC structure, a modified structure utilizing composite columns, and a modified structure retrofitted with steel braces. The two modified structures were designed in order to investigate their performance when subjected to blast loading compared to the conventional design. During the dynamic analyses, the structures were exposed to simulated blast loads of multiple intensities using the finite-element modelling software, SeismoStruct. To evaluate their performance, the responses of the modified structures were analyzed and compared with the response of the conventional structure. It was concluded that both the structure with composite columns and the steel brace structure experienced less damage than the conventional model. The best performance was obtained through the steel brace structure.

Opis:
One of the major pollutants generated from guinea fowl farms and slaughterhouses is guinea fowl feather (GFF) wastes. Chicken feathers are an important substrate for removing aqueous pollutants due to their structural characteristics, but the application of GFFs for such purposes has not been elucidated. This study was carried out to determine the potential of raw as well as chemically and physically pretreated GFFs in the bioremediation of copper (Cu) and zinc (Zn) from aqueous solutions and the subsequent biodegradation of Cu- and Zn-laden GFFs using free and immobilized heavy-metal-tolerant bacteria. Using atomic adsorption spectrometry, the ability of treated and untreated GFFs to adsorb Cu and Zn was determined, and the generated heavy-metal-laden GFFs were degraded using Pseudochrobactrum sp. IY-BUK1. The results revealed that under optimized conditions, acetone and autoclave pretreatment enhanced Cu and Zn removal by 40% within 6 h when compared with raw GFFs. Similarly, complete biodegradation of Cu- and Zn-laden GFFs was achieved at pH 8, with 2% inoculum size, and at 25EC using IY-BUK1 in 7 days. Upon optimization of physical and nutritional conditions, using one factor at a time and response surface methodology, the maximum keratinase activity was achieved at 30EC, with 3% inoculum size and 3.5% polluted GFF concentration in 3 h. The degradation and keratinase activity were further enhanced by 50% by the immobilization of Pseudochrobactrum sp. IY-BUK1 cells compared with free cells. Thus, GFFs can act as good biosorbents, and together with IY-BUK1, the use of GFFs can be an alternative approach to dispose of GFFs, thus preventing environmental pollution via bioremediation.

Opis:
Purpose This paper aims to prepare depolymerized polyethylene terephthalate (DPET) powder from recycled plastic water bottles. Adding this DPET powder to the cement mortar was also studied. Design/methodology/approach The adopted PET depolymerization process includes the usage of both ethylene glycol (EG) as solvent and nano-MgO as a catalyst. A bubble column reactor was designed for this process. Five different mortar groups were made; each has different DPET content of 0%, 1%, 3%, 6% and 9% as a sand replacement. The flexural strength test and the water absorption measurement are done after two curing periods: 7 and 28 days. Findings The research finding demonstrated that the flexural strength of mortar was reduced by increasing the DPET powder percentage and the maximum dropping was 15% when 9% of DPET was added. The ability of the mortar to absorb the water was reduced by 14.5% when DPET powder was 9%. The mortar microstructure is featured with fewer cavities and porosity. Research limitations/implications This work’s employed bubble column technique is limited only to the laboratory environment and needs to be scaled up within industrial mass production. For future research, it is suggested to decrease depolymerization time by using smaller pieces of plastic water bottle waste and trying other types of nanocatalyst. Practical implications The modified mortar can be utilized in areas where moisture, rainfalls, and sanitation systems exist. Originality/value The article claims that depolymerized waste PET improves chemical process efficiency by lowering reaction time and improving mass and heat transfer rates. Besides, this approach saves money. It is found out that the depolymerized plastic waste is much more functional due to its high cohesion capability than being used as small PET pieces.

Because of hydraulic jump, the scour downstream a stepped spillway is the most confusing issue that endangers the overall stability of the spillway. In this paper, thirty-six exploratory runs are described to explore the impact of utilizing submerged water jets fixed in the stilling basin of a stepped spillway on the downstream scour measurements under various flow conditions. A smooth apron where the water jets are disabled is incorporated to characterize the impact of adjustments studied. Trials are performed utilizing different upstream discharges, jets arrangements, and tailwater depths. The results are analyzed and graphically presented. The experimental data are contrasted to a scour formulae developed by other specialists. Outcomes indicated that by utilizing submerged floor water jets, the maximum scour depth is decreased between 14.3 and 36.0%. Additionally, the maximum scour length is reduced by 9.7 to 42.3%. Finally, involving regression analysis, simple formulas are developed to estimate different scour parameters.

Opis:
Scarcity of fresh water, forced many countries to get their water needs, or part of it, by means of saline water desalination. Reverse osmosis (RO) systems are useful tools in this concern. In case the grid electricity is not available or costly, photovoltaic (PV) power is necessary to derive RO systems. The present paper is concerned with providing a methodology for complete sizing and design of a photovoltaic reverse osmosis (PVRO) system in Egypt. Egypt has very favorable solar energy. A computer program was constructed to solve the mathematical equations of the model to get the numerical values. The program is capable of calculating the solar irradiation for any city in Egypt. Calculations and selection of the RO system with all connected pumps, the peak PV power needed, and the actual PV area were performed for different water demands ranging from 1-100 m3/day, and various water total dissolved solids (TDSs) of 5000, 15000, and 30000 mg/l. The cost of the complete PVRO system was also determined. The concern of the paper is related to water desalination and solar energy, which are responsible for our existence. The work also aims toward sustainable and clean environment via utilizing solar energy.

Multi-objective optimization is a powerful tool for resolving conflicting objectives in engineering design and numerous other fields. One approach to solve multi-objective optimization problems is the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA). Genetic algorithm (GA) was applied in regarding the choice of the time intervals for the periodic testing of the components of the chimney water injection system (CWIS) of the 22 MW open pool multipurpose reactor (MPR), ETRR-2, at the Egyptian Atomic Energy Authority, has been used as a case study.

Opis:
The second Egyptian research reactor ETRR-2 became critical on 27th November, 1997. The National Center of Nuclear Safety and Radiation Control (NCNSRC) has the responsibility for the evaluation and assessment of safety of this reactor. Modern managements of water distribution system (WDS) need water quality models that are able to accurately predict the dynamics of water quality variations within the distribution system environment. Before water quality models can be applied to solve system problems, they should be calibrated. The purpose of this paper is to present an approach which combines both macro and detailed models to optimize the water quality parameters. For an efficient search through the solution space, we use a multi-objective genetic algorithm which allows us to identify a set of Pareto optimal solutions providing the decision maker with a complete spectrum of optimal solutions with respect to the various targets. This new combinative algorithm uses the radial basis function (RBF) metamodeling as a surrogate to be optimized for the purpose of decreasing the times of time-consuming water quality simulation and can realize rapidly the calibration of pipe wall reaction coefficients of chlorine model of large-scaled WDS.

The diversity and complexity of subsurface soil in studied area consisting of alluvial deposits cause many diffi culties for foundation engineering. Therefore, a solution is needed for foundation in this problematic soil. In Sudan, raft foundation represents the basic and most widespread shallow foundation method for engineering structure except for bridges where the pile foundation is used. In recent years, after the discovery of petroleum in Sudan, a major advance in piling technology is needed due to intensive building of large numbers of precast high-rise tower. This paper used Plaxis software to understand the behavior of axially loaded bored pile using different loads, lengths and diameters of piles. In this paper a comprehensive analytical study using fi nite element analysis is presented and parametric study of pile under vertical load is performed. The analytical and quantitative analysis in this study shows useful understanding of the behavior of bored pile.

The National Center of Nuclear Safety and Radiation Control (NCNSRC) has the responsibility of the evaluation and the assessment of the safety of this reactor. Fuel management reloads for Egypt’s second research reactor have been carried out according to the fuel management scheme suggested by the reactor designer (INVAP). The start up core consists of three different fuel types, while the equilibrium core has only one fuel type called standard fuel. The fuel management scheme consists in considering the core as being partitioned into eight zones. Each zone will correspond to a chain of fuel movements. In each fuel cycle two of these chains will be involved, in which eight fuel elements will be moved, from them two spent fuel elements will be extracted and two fresh fuel elements will be inserted in the core. In this paper we solve a model as a one big nonlinear multi objective discrete optimization problem using genetic algorithm. Results are compared with INVAP values.

Opis:
The present investigation was conducted to appraise the physiochemical adjustments in contrasting maize cultivars, namely, PakAfgoi (tolerant) and EV-5098 (sensitive) subjected to heat shock. Seven-day-old seedlings were exposed to heat shock for different time intervals (1, 3, 6, 24, 48 and 72 h) and data for various physiochemical attributes determined to appraise time course changes in maize. After 72 h of heat shock, the plants were grown under normal conditions for 5 d and data for different growth attributes and photosynthetic pigments recorded. Exposure to heat shock reduced growth and photosynthetic pigments in maize cultivars. The plants exposed to heat shock for up to 3 h recovered growth and photosynthetic pigments when stress was relieved. A time course rise in the relative membrane permeability, hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) and malondialdehyde contents was recorded particularly in the EV-5098 indicating that heat shock-induced oxidative stress. Activities of different enzymatic antioxidants greatly altered due to heat shock. For instance, an increase in superoxide dismutase activity was recorded in both maize cultivars. The activity of ascorbate peroxidase was greater in Pak-Afgoi. However, the peroxidase and catalase activities were higher in plants of EV-5098. Heat shock caused a significant rise in the proline and decline in the total free amino acids. Overall, the performance of Pak-Afgoi was better in terms of having lesser oxidative damage and greater cellular levels of proline. The results suggested that oxidative stress indicators (relative membrane permeability, H2O2 and malondialdehyde) and proline can be used as markers for heat shock tolerant plants.

Opis:
In this article, a new reciprocal Rayleigh extension called the Xgamma reciprocal Rayleigh model is defined and studied. The relevant statistical properties are derived, and the useful results related to the convexity and concavity are addressed. We discussed the estimation of the parameters using different estimation methods such as the maximum likelihood estimation method, the ordinary least squares estimation method, the weighted least squares estimation method, the Cramer-Von-Mises estimation method, and the bootstrapping method. A simulation study was conducted to assess the performances of the proposed estimation methods are investigated through a simulation study. Many bivariate and multivariate type model have also been derived based on Farlie-Gumbel-Morgenstern copula, the Clayton copula, Renyi's entropy copula and the Ali-Mikhail-Haq copula. A modified Nikulin-Rao-Robson test for right-censored validation is applied to a censored real data set.

Opis:
Smart clothes can be described as textiles that change their behavior under some external factors (stimulants). The response of the smart cloth can be passive (just as a sensor) or active (where a combination of sensing and another reaction takes place). The materials involved in these textiles are crucial for many applications, especially for health related applications where the “wearables” can provide instantaneous monitoring and aid to people with certain disabilities. This work consists of two main parts: First it investigates the different materials used in smart clothing for monitoring the vital activities of the human body (e.g. the breathing rates) with an emphasis on piezoresistive structures as they work sensing elements for mechanical strains. Second this work presents the production of functional membrane samples based on synthesized pyrrolinone ester hydrazone dye with a preliminary investigation of their chemical and geometrical parameters, especially their sensitivity for monitoring the presence of ammonia to function as a smart textile based colorimetric chemosensor.
„Inteligentne” ubrania można opisać jako tekstylia, które reagują pod wpływem czynników zewnętrznych (bodźców). Odpowiedź „inteligentnej” odzieży może być bierna (czujnik) lub czynna (wykrywanie i reakcja). Materiały związane z tymi wyrobami tekstylnymi mają kluczowe znaczenie dla wielu zastosowań, zwłaszcza dla tych związanych ze zdrowiem, gdzie odzież może zapewnić natychmiastowy monitoring i pomoc osobom niepełnosprawnym. Przedstawiona praca składała się z dwóch głównych części: najpierw badano różne materiały stosowane w „inteligentnej” odzieży do monitorowania istotnych czynności organizmu ludzkiego (np. szybkości oddychania), ze szczególnym uwzględnieniem struktur piezorezystancyjnych. W drugiej części pracy przedstawiono wytwarzanie funkcjonalnych membran z zastosowaniem syntetycznego barwnika, zbadano parametry chemiczne i geometryczne, w szczególności wrażliwości na monitorowanie obecności amoniaku w celu zastosowania wyrobu jako chemosensor kolorymetryczny.

Opis:
Purpose: This study addresses the brittle fracture propagation behaviour modelling of hydroxyapatite (HAp) coating in artificial femoral stem component. Design/methodology/approach: A simple two dimensional flat-on-flat contact configuration finite element model consisting contact pad (bone), Ti-6Al-4V substrate and HAp coating is employed in static simulation. The HAp coating is modelled as elastic layer with pre-microcrack which assumed to be initiated due to stress singularity. Findings: The study revealed that reducing coating thickness, pre-microcrack length and artificial femoral stem elastic modulus along with increasing bone elastic modulus will result in significant stress intensity factor (SIF) to promote brittle fracture propagation behaviour. Research limitations/implications: The influence of coating thickness, pre-microcrack length, bone and artificial femoral stem elastic modulus on fracture behaviour is examined under different stress ratio using J-integral analysis approach. Practical implications: The proposed finite element model can be easily accommodating different Hap coating thickness, pre-microcrack length, bone and artificial femoral stem elastic modulus to perform detailed parametric studies with minimal costly experimental works. Originality/value: Limited research focussing on brittle fracture propagation behaviour of HAp coating in artificial femoral stem component. Thus, present study analysed the influence of coating thickness, pre-microcrack length, bone and artificial femoral stem elastic modulus on stress intensity factor (SIF) of HAp coating.

Opis:
The main feature of solar radio type II, III and IV burst is outlined. In this event there are three combinations of bursts that related to the solar flare phenomenon on 6th July 2012. This event is one of good example to observe how far the influence of type II burst could impact the formation of type IV burst and III solar bursts. At first stage, it was observed that a sub-type of H burst form within 2 minutes before type IV solar burst form. The type IV burst is due to the eruption of active region AR 1515 with a fine structure (FS). We used a Blein CALLISTO data in this case. Further analysis also showed that the total energy of the burst are in the range of 4.875 × 10-25 J to 8.48 × 10-25 J and plasma frequency is equal to 1.24 × 104 Hz. Therefore, we could say that in this case, before the solar burst type III occurred, the ejection of CMEs already ejected.

Using data from a BLEIN Callisto site, we aim to provide a comprehensive description of the synopsis formation and dynamics of a a single solar burst type III and IV event due to active region AR1890. This eruption has started since 14:15 UT with a formation of type III solar burst. To investigate the importance of the role of type III solar burst can potentially form a type IV solar burst, the literature review of both bursts is outlined in detailed. The orientation and position of AR1890 make the explosion of a class C-solar flare is not directly to the Earth. Nevertheless, it is clear that the interactions of others sunspots such as AR1893,AR1895,AR1896, AR1897 and AR1898 should be studied in detail to understand what makes the type III burst formed before the type IV solar burst.

Today cloud computing becomes one of the most attractive topics due to the wide opportunities that is provided which aims to enhance the electronic services to a higher-level providing cost saving, expanding possibilities, storage in demand and the huge intake capability as well. Security is one of the most important process that should be implemented in every cloud structure level, especially with data in case of processing or storing to keep it save from unauthorized access to overcome the security challenges and difficulties, which face both provider and users in cloud. In this paper a study to compare the security algorithms for encryption/decryption files has been done to evaluate the performance impact with memory capacity, processing time and algorithms running time. The comparison has been done between three encryption algorithms AES, DES, and Blowfish to determine the performance of each one in cloud storage. From the experimental results we found that DES is faster in running time compared to other algorithms as well as AES considered to be the safest one in data protection.

Opis:
Syrian flora is very well known of its diversity and richness. It contains a large number of medicinal and aromatic species. There are many different hawthorn Crataegus: sinaica, aronia, monogyna and azorolus available in Syria which is mainly located in the western and southern part of the country. Most of these Syrian species are used in folk and in traditional medical care. They are taken in the form of herbal tea to contradict cough, flu and cold. There is no any scientific information available on the antioxidant properties of Syrian hawthorn medicinal plant. Therefore, the assessment of such properties remains an interesting and useful task, particularly for finding a new natural source of antioxidants available in Syria. Therefore, the integral antioxidants, IA of Syrian hawthorn fruits and flowers in five different sites as ascorbic acid equivalents have been carried out using photochemiluminescence, PCL assay of measurements for the first time. By means of a PCL assay, it was possible to assess the integral antioxidant (IA ) using this accurate and simple method, the highest antioxidant capacity values of hawthorn as ascorbic acid equivalents were found in the fruits of Bi’r Al-ajam and Al-Haffa sites which have values of 1444.82 and 483.44 (nmol/g), for C. monogyna and C. aronia cataegus, respectively. The highest fractions of antioxidant components are mainly due to the existence of catechin and flavonoids in both Syrian hawthorn fruit and flowers. Other chemical constituents like elemicin, sorbistat, polygalitol and homocatechol are found in Syrian hawthorn fruit and flowers. The measured values are considered to be the highest among countries of the region.
Flora Syrii wykazuje dużą różnorodność. W Syrii występuje wiele gatunków z rodzaju głóg Crataegus: sinaica, aronia, monogyna i azorolus. Są one głównie spotykane w zachodniej i południowej części kraju. Wiele z syryjskich gatunków z rodzaju Crataegus jest używanych w medycynie ludowej i tradycyjnej w postaci herbatek ziołowych w leczeniu kaszlu, grypy i przeziębienia. Brak jest naukowych doniesień na temat właściwości przeciwutleniających syryjskich gatunków głogu. Z tego powodu badanie tych właściwości jest interesujące i użyteczne, zwłaszcza w celu znalezienia nowych źródeł przeciwutleniaczy dostępnych na terenie Syrii. W artykule przedstawiono oznaczenia sumy antyoksydantów (ang. Integral antioxidants, IA ) w przeliczeniu na kwas askorbinowy, wykonane dla syryjskich głogów (owoców i kwiatów), zebranych z pięciu różnych stanowisk. Oznaczenia te po raz pierwszy wykonane były przy zastosowaniu metody fotochemiluminescencyjnej (ang. PCL assay). Stwierdzono, że najwyższa wartość zdolności przeciwutleniających w przeliczeniu na kwas askorbinowy została oznaczona dla owoców ze stanowisk Bi’r Al.-ajam i Al.-Haffa, dla których wartości te wyniosły odpowiednio 1444,82 i 483,44 (nmol/g). Otrzymane wartości można uważać za najwyższe w stosunku do wartości podawanych w innych państwach w tym regionie.

In this paper, a cold multi-pass extrusion process for a 15mm in diameter solid 2024-T3 aluminum alloy rod was carried out using three dies to obtain three different diameters of 14mm, 13mm, and 12mm. The microstructure, hardness, and corrosion behavior were investigated before and after the extrusion process. Load-Displacement data were recorded during each extrusion process. The electrochemical corrosion test was made in a 3.5 wt.% NaCl solution using potentiostat instrument under static potentials test. Corrosion current was recorded to determine the corrosion rate for specimens. The results showed that the extrusion load increased with the number of extrusion passes, which is also seen in hardness test results. In addition, the corrosion rate decreased with the increase in the number of extrusion passes. This is due to severe plastic deformation, which generates a fine grain structure of (AlCu) and (AlCuMg) components.

This research presents a comparative study for maximum power point tracking (MPPT) methodologies for a photovoltaic (PV) system. A novel hybrid algorithm golden section search assisted perturb and observe (GSS-PO) is proposed to solve the problems of the conventional PO (CPO). The aim of this new methodology is to boost the efficiency of the CPO. The new algorithm has a very low convergence time and a very high efficiency. GSS-PO is compared with the intelligent nature-inspired multi-verse optimization (MVO) algorithm by a simulation validation. The simulation study reveals that the novel GSS- PO outperforms MVO under uniform irradiance conditions and under a sudden change in irradiance.

Opis:
The construction industry is considered as one of the most important sectors in Egypt. One of the major challenges faced by the industry, however, is the unavailability of suitable performance measurement systems for assessing companies’ performance. Modern performance assessment systems adopt a more universal approach to the measurement of construction company performance as opposed to the traditional project triangle. This paper aims to examine the practice of performance measurement in the Egyptian construction industry. Results show dominant role of in-house developed performance management systems as well as the use of KPIs as a method of performance assessment. The study further reveals that the highest importance is given to measures related to the time of project delivery, quality of works, clients’ satisfaction and profitability. Hence, the traditional project triangle of project’s success is the most prevalent approach to performance evaluation in the construction industry in Egypt. However, a shift towards a more holistic approach to performance assessment in larger companies was observed.

Opis:
This study explores the determinants of food expenditures in northern Ghana’s rural households, using a survey data collected in 2010 in the vicinity of Tamale, the capital of the Northern Region. Three estimation methods (OLS, OLS with robust error, and WLS) are used in empirical models to address the possible heteroscedasticity. Models indicate that socio-demographic factors such as income, owning a tractor, age, and household composition are important factors in determining food expenditure. Similarly, farm features such as cultivation of staple or cash crops, the field size of groundnuts, as well as buying dry goods in bulk are also found to be major determinants. Results provide useful information for both private and public sector decision makers, while supplying ample evidence of the importance of estimation method selection to generate most accurate quantified effects of individual explanatory variables on food expenditure.
Celem badań było zidentyfikowanie determinantów wydatków na żywność w wiejskich gospodarstwach domowych w Ganie, na podstawie danych z ankiety przeprowadzonej w 2010 r. w okolicy Tamale, stolicy Regionu Północnego. Aby wykluczyć heteroskedastyczność do obliczenia modelu użyto trzech metod – MNK, MNK z poprawionymi błędami oraz WMNK. Otrzymane wyniki wskazują na czynniki socjodemograficzne (dochód, posiadanie ciągnika, wiek i skład rodziny), jako czynniki determinujące wydatki na żywność. Stwierdzono, że uprawa podstawowych roślin i tych przeznaczonych na sprzedaż (np. orzeszki ziemne) oraz niektóre inne zmienne, jak np. zakup produktów suchych w ilościach hurtowych, były statystycznie istotne. Wyniki dostarczały informacji o przydatnych w podejmowaniu decyzji zarówno w sektorze prywatnym, jak i publicznym, jednocześnie podkreślają wagę wyboru metody umożliwiającej najdokładniejszą ocenę wpływu poszczególnych zmiennych na wydatki przeznaczone na zakup pożywienia.

Opis:
The proportional-integral-derivative (PID) controllers have experienced series of structural modifications and improvements. Example of such modifications are set-point weighting and fractional ordering. While the former is to achieve two-degree-of-freedom (2DOF) ability of set-point tracking and disturbance rejection, the latter is to ensure smooth control action. Therefore, this paper reviews various forms of PID controllers and provides a comparative analysis of 2DOF PID and 2DOF fractional order PID (FOPID) controllers. The paper also discusses the conversion of one PID form to another. For the comparative analysis of the various controllers, a class of unstable systems are considered. Simulation result shows that in most cases the conversion from one form to another does not significantly affect the performance of the system. It is also observed that the 2DOF controllers (2DOF PID and 2DOF FOPID) improved significantly the performance of the ordinary PID controllers.

Opis:
For imaging of the biogas process fast and long-term stable measurement methods misses for certain parts of the process. Thus, it is necessary to know the development of organic acids. These metabolites, which are generated during the bacterial degradation, are important indicators. The process is generally very confusing, not only in terms of the number of occurring bacteria and chemical compounds, but also their variabilities. For the knowledge of such changes a direct, low-wear and permanent monitoring of organic acids would be extremely useful. Upon the occurrence of a change like hyperacidity we could react quickly. There are already some proven methods. However, these methods have several disadvantages: the information gathering is logistically difficult by long journeys, by process conditions information’s are delayed and distorted, quickly worn sensors, etc. Therefore, a innovative development is presented here, which avoids all the disadvantages listed. The sensor unit has been developed in cooperation with KSI Meinberg, Logic Way Schwerin, IBZ Hohen Luckow, University of Rostock and a polish colleague. According to Raoult law a characteristic is used in principle, which is typical of some liquid and gaseous media that are touching. This means volatile substances, which for example, are also in the fermenter broth, among others organic acids, are also detectable in the gaseous phase. If in the gas phase such acids can be detected, conclusions about the acid content in the substrate broth are possible. In different experiments evaluable matches between the developments of organic acids on the one hand in the liquid phase (broth) and on the other hand, in the gaseous phase were found. These results are based on an acid sensor unit with which distant standing biogas plants can be controlled remotely. A project regarding this topic is supported by research programme ZIM. Project executing organization is AiF (Arbeitsgemeinschaft industrieller Forschungsvereinigungen “Otto von Guericke” e.V.).

Opis:
Acid leaching of Egyptian zinc ore from the Um Gheig area was carried out with sulfuric acid. This study determines the optimum conditions for dissolution of non-sulfide zinc ore. The optimum conditions are 25% -74m particle size, 45 °C temperature, 2 h leaching time, 1.1 stoichiometric molar ratio of H2SO4 to Zn, 1:3 solid/liquid ratio. The maximum filtration rate is 1.6 Mg Zn•m-2•day-1at pressure difference of 0.80 bar. The zinc recovery is about 90%. As the zinc ore contains zinc silicate, some additives were tested to enhance filtration and prevent formation of silica gel. To increase the added value of the product, zinc oxide was precipitated by a co-precipitation method in a nanosize powder with average particle size ~ 20 nm. Photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue dye under UV light using ZnO nanopowders produced at different conditions was investigated. Photocatalytic efficiency with methylene blue (MB) concentration was reduced as much as 85% in 240 min with the produced nanoparticles.

Opis:
The design of machines with permanent magnets is actively developing day by day and is often used in wind energy. The main advantages of such variable speed drives are high efficiency, high power density and torque density. When designing a wind generator with two rotors and permanent magnets, it is necessary to solve such a problem as the correct choice of the number of poles and slots to increase efficiency and minimize the cost of the machine. In this work, an improved spotted hyena optimization algorithm is used to obtain the optimal combination of slots and poles. This optimization algorithm makes it possible to obtain the number of fractional slots per pole and evaluate the operating efficiency of a wind generator with a double rotor and ferrite magnets. At the first stage of machine design, various combinations of slots are installed. Next, the optimal combination is selected from various slot-pole combinations, taking into account the Enhanced Spotted Hyena Optimization (ESHO) algorithm, in which a multiobjective function is configured. Accordingly, the multi-objectives are the integration of reverse electromotive force, output torque, gear torque, flux linkage, torque ripple along with losses. Analysis of the results obtained shows that the proposed algorithm for determining the optimal slot combination is more efficient than other slot combinations. It has also been found that the choice of slot and pole combination is critical to the efficient operation of permanent magnet machines.
Projektowanie maszyn z magnesami trwałymi aktywnie rozwija się z dnia na dzień i jest często wykorzystywane w energetyce wiatrowej. Głównymi zaletami takich napędów o zmiennej prędkości są wysoka sprawność, wysoka gęstość mocy i gęstość momentu obrotowego. Podczas projektowania generatora wiatrowego z dwoma wirnikami i magnesami trwałymi konieczne jest rozwiązanie takiego problemu, jak prawidłowy dobór liczby biegunów i szczelin w celu zwiększenia wydajności i zminimalizowania kosztów maszyny. W niniejszej pracy zastosowano ulepszony algorytm optymalizacji hieny plamistej w celu uzyskania optymalnej kombinacji szczelin i biegunów. Ten algorytm optymalizacji umożliwia uzyskanie liczby ułamkowych szczelin na biegun i ocenę wydajności operacyjnej generatora wiatrowego z podwójnym wirnikiem i magnesami ferrytowymi. Na pierwszym etapie projektowania maszyny instalowane są różne kombinacje szczelin. Następnie wybierana jest optymalna kombinacja spośród różnych kombinacji szczelin i biegunów, biorąc pod uwagę algorytm Enhanced Spotted Hyena Optimization (ESHO) (ulepszony algorytm optymalizacjihieny cętkowanej hieny), w którym skonfigurowana jest funkcja wielocelowa. W związku z tym, celami wielozadaniowymi są integracja odwrotnej siły elektromotorycznej, wyjściowego momentu obrotowego, momentu obrotowego przekładni, połączenia strumienia, tętnienia momentu obrotowego wraz ze stratami. Analiza uzyskanych wyników pokazuje, że proponowany algorytm określania optymalnej kombinacji szczelin jest bardziej wydajny niż inne kombinacje szczelin. Stwierdzono również, że wybór kombinacji szczelin i biegunów ma kluczowe znaczenie dla wydajnej pracy maszyn z magnesami trwałymi.

Opis:
A pontoon bridge, also known as a floating bridge, can be used as for pedestrian and vehicle traffic. The buoyancy of the floating bridge limits the maximum load it can carry. This research included experimental runs to study variations of open channel flow characteristics upstream and downstream a floating bridge. Eighty one runs have been carried out using a flume in a hydraulic laboratory. The experimental run program is classified into two main categories; the first investigates the velocity ratios (vds/vus) downstream and upstream the floating bridge. The second category is concerned with the energy head losses (hL) due to the presence of a floating bridge. The experimental runs are carried out using three pontoon lengths, three flow depths, six submerged depths, and three discharges. The results are analysed and graphically presented to help predict hydraulic parameters. The outcomes have shown that the floating bridge upstream, Froude number and submergence of the pontoon are the dominant parameters that affect the studied flow characteristics.

Opis:
Plant biomasses often have high water content and their energy and material density is too low, which significantly affects their high transport costs. Hydrothermal carbonization is a suitable method to increase the transportability of these biomasses. The produced biochar (HTC-char) is rich in carbon. Disadvantages of such carbonization process are the quality fluctuations of the biochars produced. This is also because there are to date no suitable measuring methods for the carbonization process. The paper presents a novel method, which will help to influence the carbonization process in the sense of qualitatively equivalent biochars by means of the achievable data therewith.

Opis:
High conversion copolymers containing 90 wt % of N-vinylpyrrolidone (NVP) and 10 wt % of 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (TMSPM) with 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4 wt % (in conversion to mass of NVP/TMSPM) of ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) as crosslinker have been successfully synthesized. Proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) were employed to characterize the resulting copolymers. The effect of EGDMA amount on the mechanical and thermal properties, swelling parameters, clarity, and oxygen permeability of the prepared xerogels and hydrogels were studied. 3 wt % of EGDMA is required to obtain clear xerogels and hydrogels. The water content (EWC), volume fraction of polymer (φ2) and weight loss during swelling decrease with increasing EGDMA content. Young’s and shear modulus (E and G) increase as EGDMA content increases, the values of E and G are 0.570–3.531 MPa and 0.217–1.359 MPa, respectively. The hydrogels were characterized in terms of modulus crosslinking density (ve and vt) and polymer-solvent interaction parameters (χ). The results are 0.220–0.613 mol/dm3 for ve, 0.105–0.441 mol/dm3 for vt, and 0.595–0.822 for χ. Thermal properties enhance by adding EGDMA whereas the oxygen permeability (P) of hydrogels decreases from 48.6 to 44.3 as water content decrease from 70.3 to 55.1.
Kopolimery zawierające 90 % mas. N-winylopirolidonu (NVP) i 10 % masmetakrylanu 3-(trimetoksysililo)propylu (TMSPM) z udziałem 0, 1, 2, 3 i 4 % mas. (w przeliczeniu na masę NVP/TMSPM) dimetakrylanu glikolu etylenowego (EGDMA) jako środka sieciującego zsyntetyzowano z wysokim stopniem konwersji. Otrzymane kopolimery charakteryzowano metodami protonowego rezonansu jądrowego (H1 NMR) i spektroskopii w podczerwieni (FT-IR). Badano wpływ udziału środka sieciującego na właściwości mechaniczne i termiczne, parametry pęcznienia, klarowność i przepuszczalność tlenu wytworzonych hydro- i kserożeli. Stwierdzono, że dodatek już 3 % mas. EGDMA wystarcza do uzyskania klarownego żelu, a w miarę zwiększania zawartości EGDMA zmniejsza się zawartość wody (EWC), ułamek objętości polimeru (φ2) oraz strata masy w procesie pęcznienia żelu NVP/TMSPM. Wartość modułu zarówno Younga (E), jak i ścinania (G) zwiększa się (E = 0,570–3,531 MPa, G = 0,217–1,359 MPa) wraz ze wzrostem udziału EGDMA w kompozycji. Wytworzone hydrożele charakteryzowano za pomocą modułów gęstości sieciowania (ve = 0,220–0,613 mol/dm3, vt = 0,105–0,441 mol/dm3) i parametru oddziaływania polimer-rozpuszczalnik (χ = 0,595–0,822). Właściwości termiczne otrzymanych hydrożeli zawierających EGDMA poprawiły się wraz ze zmniejszeniem zawartości wody (70,3–55,1), natomiast przepuszczalność tlenu się pogorszyła (P = 48,6–44,3).

Opis:
Copolymers of acrylamide (AM) with 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (TMSPMA) and tris(methoxyethoxy)vinylsilane (TMEVS) with different compositions were synthesized at low conversion by free radical polymerization in dimethylformamide (DMF) using benzoyl peroxide (BPO) as an initiator. The copolymers were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), and their thermal properties were studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The copolymers composition was determined by elemental analysis. The monomer reactivity ratios were estimated by linearization methods proposed by Fineman-Ross and Kelen-Tudos, the intersection method proposed by Mayo-Lewis and nonlinear method proposed by curve fitting procedure. The derived reactivity ratios (r1, r2) are: 1.87, 0.80 for TMSPMA-co-AM and 0.22, 1.21 for TMEVS-co-AM. Both copolymers formed blocks of one of the monomer units. The microstructure of copolymers and sequence distribution of monomers in the copolymers were calculated by statistical method based on the average reactivity ratios and found that these values are in agreement with the derived reactivity ratios.

Otrzymane kopolimery charakteryzowano za pomocą spektroskopii w podczerwieni z transformacją Fouriera (FT-IR), różnicowej kalorymetrii skaningowej (DSC) oraz analizy termograwimetrycznej (TGA). Skład kopolimerów ustalono metodą analizy elementarnej. Współczynniki reaktywności monomerów oszacowano metodami linearyzacji zaproponowanymi przez: Finemana-Rossa, Kelena-Tudosa, Mayo-Lewisa i metodą nieliniową z zastosowaniem procedury dopasowania krzywej. Otrzymane współczynniki reaktywności (r1, r2) wynosiły: 1,87 i 0,80 dla TMSPMA-co-AM oraz 1,21 i 0,22 dla TMEVS-co-AM. Oba kopolimery miały budowę złożoną zbloków utworzonych z jednostek monomerów składowych. Mikrostrukturę oraz sekwencję monomerów w kopolimerach wyznaczono metodą statystyczną na podstawie średnich współczynników reaktywności. Stwierdzono zgodność obliczeń z wartościami otrzymanymi doświadczalnie.

Purpose: Present paper addresses the formulation of delamination-fretting wear failure predictive equation in HAp-Ti-6Al-4V interface of hip arthroplasty femoral stem component using multiple linear regression model. Design/methodology/approach: A finite element computational model utilising adaptive meshing algorithm via ABAQUS/Standard user subroutine UMESHMOTION is developed. The developed FE model is employed to examine effect of different HAp-Ti-6Al-4V interface mechanical and tribological properties on delamination-fretting wear behaviour. The FE result is utilised to formulate predictive equations for different stress ratio conditions using multiple linear regression analysis. Findings: Delamination-fretting wear predictive equations are successfully formulated with significant goodness of fit and reliability as a fast failure prediction tool in HAp coated hip arthroplasty. The robustness of predictive equations is validated as good agreement is noted with actual delamination-fretting wear results. Research limitations/implications: The influence of different mechanical and tribological properties such as delamination length, normal loading, fatigue loading, bone elastic modulus and cycle number under different stress ratio on delamination-fretting wear failure is analysed to formulate failure predictive equations. Practical implications: The formulated predictive equation can serve as a fast delamination-fretting wear failure prediction tool in hip arthroplasty femoral stem component. Originality/value: Limited attempt is done to explore the potential of utilizing multiple linear regression model to predict failures in hip arthroplasty. Thus, present study attempt to formulate delamination-fretting wear failure predictive equation in HAp -Ti-6Al-4V interface of hip arthroplasty femoral stem component using multiple linear regression model.

Opis:
On fifth-generation wireless networks, a potential massive MIMO system is used to meet the ever-increasing request for high-traffic data rates, high-resolution streaming media, and cognitive communication. In order to boost the trade-off between energy efficiency (EE), spectral efficiency (SE), and throughput in wireless 5G networks, massive MIMO systems are essential. This paper proposes a strategy for EE 5G optimization utilizing massive MIMO technology. The massive MIMO system architecture would enhance the trade-off between throughput and EE at the optimum number of working antennas. Moreover, the EE-SE tradeoff is adjusted for downlink and uplink massive MIMO systems employing linear precoding techniques such as Multiple -Minimum Mean Square Error (M-MMSE), Regularized Zero Forcing (RZF), Zero Forcing (ZF), and Maximum Ratio (MR). Throughput is increased by adding more antennas at the optimum EE, according to the analysis of simulation findings. Next, utilizing M MMSE instead of RZF and ZF, the suggested trading strategy is enhanced and optimized. The results indicate that M-MMSE provides the best tradeoff between EE and throughput at the determined optimal ratio between active antennas and active users equipment’s (UE).

Opis:
The impact of solar activities indirectly affected the conditions of earth's climate and space weather in general. In this work, we will highlight a low cost project, however, potentially gives a high impact through a dedicated long-term and one of the most successful space weather project. This research is a part of an initiative of the United Nations together with NASA in order to support developing countries participating in „Western Science‟ research. At the beginning of 2007, the objective to monitor the solar activities (solar flares and Coronal Mass Ejections) within 24 hours all over the world has positively turned to reality. Realize how important for us to keep doing a research about the solar bursts, by using the new radio spectrometer, CALLISTO. This research is not only hoping to give a knowledge to the people about how the solar bursts are produced, the characteristics of every type of solar burst at the wide range (45 MHz to 870 MHz) but also the effect of the solar burst toward the Earth. By using the same CALLISTO spectrometer within the 45-870 MHz, designing and leading by Christian Monstein from ETH Zurich, Switzerland, this research project is the one of successful project under ISWI program. Malaysia becomes the 19th countries that involve this research. One of the advantages to start the solar monitoring in Malaysia is because our strategic location as equator country that makes possible to observing a Sun for 12 hours daily throughout a year. We strongly believe that Malaysia as one of contributor of solar activity data through E-CALLISTO network. This is a very good start for developing a radio astronomy in Malaysia.

Opis:
Efforts from laboratory experiments and some practical approaches show that several building materials can be derived from agricultural waste and be used as partial or complete replacement of conventional building materials. These efforts however have not completely provided the solution for the need of alternative building materials. This is due to the lack of generalised information on the development of the materials, which most often test few properties of the materials, and without any meaningful studies of the economic implication of the innovations. This research work was aimed to establish whether there is cost benefit in utilising building materials derived from agricultural waste or not, and to what extent if any? The cost of utilising Ordinary Portland Cement (OPC), Rice Husk Ash (RHA), and Oil Palm Shell (OPS) in concrete, sandcrete blocks, bonding and plaster mortars was then evaluated. The cost was arrived at by adopting the actual cost of the material by volume and multiplying it by the actual quantity by volume used. The study discovered that 41% cost reduction in mass concrete is the highest cost saving while 12% in plaster mortar is the lowest. An overall cost saving of about 24% in the total cost of materials recorded. However, the study discovered that overall cost saving is dependent on the distance of the agricultural waste from production or construction site. Lack of readily available appropriate technology for processing some of the agricultural waste to building material was identified as a major challenge.
Rezultaty działań podejmowanych w eksperymentalnych laboratoriach, a także pewne praktyczne przykłady pokazują, że można uzyskać kilka rodzajów materiałów budowlanych z odpadów rolnych. Materiały te mogą być wykorzystane w celu częściowego lub całkowitego zastąpienia konwencjonalnych materiałów budowlanych. Wysiłki te jednak nie zaspokoiły w pełni potrzeby alternatywnych materiałów budowlanych. Wynika to z braku uogólnionych informacji na temat rozwoju materiałów, które najczęściej dotyczą kilku właściwości owych materiałów, ale nie dostarczają znaczących studiów nad ekonomicznymi efektami innowacji. Niniejszy artykuł ma na celu ustalenie, czy wykorzystanie materiałów budowlanych pochodzących z odpadów rolnych przynosi korzyści pieniężne i w jakim zakresie. Oszacowano koszty wykorzystania zwykłego cementu portlandzkiego (ang. Ordinary Portland Cement, OPC), popiołu z łusek ryżowych (ang. Rice Husk Ash, RHA), a także pozostałości po wytłaczaniu oleju palmowego (ang. Oil Palm Shell, OPS) w blokach betonowych i piaskowo-betonowych oraz zaprawie wiążącej i tynku. Koszty oceniono na podstawie aktualnych kosztów materiałów za jednostkę pomnożonych przez aktualną wykorzystaną ich ilość. Badania wykazały, że największa redukcja kosztów wyniosła 41% w odniesieniu do betonu, natomiast najmniejsza – 12% w odniesieniu do tynku. Ogólna oszczędność kosztów wyniosła około 24% całkowitych kosztów materiałów. Jednak wyniki ukazały również, że ogólna oszczędność kosztów zależy od odległości, w jakiej znajdują się odpady rolne w stosunku do miejsca produkcji lub budowy. Jako najważniejsze wyzwanie uznano brak łatwo dostępnej i odpowiedniej technologii przetworzenia niektórych odpadów rolnych w materiały budowlane.

Opis:
Light fidelity (Li-Fi) systems based on the orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) scheme have gained more attention in the communications circles, as a means to provide high spectral efficiency and ensure stricter data rate requirements for visible light communication (VLC) systems. However, common OFDM schemes employ Hermitian symmetry to obtain a real-valued signal which is necessary in intensity modulation and direct detection (IM/DD) optical systems, at the expense of doubling the required bandwidth. In this paper, a novel transmission scheme for an OFDM-based Li-Fi system is proposed to tackle the issue in question. A new approach to complex signal mapping (CSM), based on the pairing function method, has been developed for Li-Fi systems. It does not require Hermitian symmetry and, hence, saves about 50% of the required bandwidth. Unlike existing OFDM-based VLC approaches, the proposed scheme employs CSM to ensure a real and positive signal without Hermitian symmetry in order to fully utilize the bandwidth available to Li-Fi networks. Simulation results show that the proposed scheme significantly outperforms other systems in terms of spectral efficiency. The CSM-OFDM based Li-Fi system also achieves a good peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) reduction with acceptable bit-error-rate (BER) performance, compared to conventional approaches.

Opis:
The use of hollow catalytic support improves the utilization of the catalytic material because of the absence of the pellet core, and moreover ensures low reactor pressure drop owing to enhanced bed voidage. In this study, the expressions for the efficient computation of the effectiveness factor are derived for a ring-shaped catalyst pellet undergoing first-order irreversible reaction. The methodology consists of using solutions of one-dimensional problems to remove non-homogeneous boundary conditions. The expressions obtained exhibit significantly faster convergence behavior than those reported in literature. The shape parameters, namely, the height-to-diameter ratio and the inner-to-outer radii ratio, significantly affect the catalyst utilization, such that several-fold improvement in the effectiveness factor is achievable.

Opis:
This paper aims to study the degradation rate of sugar palm nanofibrillated cellulose (SPNFCs) and sugar palm starch (SPS). SPNFCs were isolated from sugar palm fiber, while SPS is extracted from sugar palm trunk. The SPNFCs were reinforced with SPS biopolymer as biodegradable reinforcement materials of different diameter/length based on the number of passes of high pressurize homogenization process (5, 10 and 15 passes represented by SPS/SPNFCs-5, SPS/SPNFCs-10, and SPS/SPNFCs-15). These SPNFCs were incorporated into SPS plasticized with glycerol and sorbitol via solution casting method. Soil burial experiment performed on SPS and SPS/SPNFCs bionanocomposites showed that SPS was degraded more rapidly by losing 85.76% of its mass in 9 days compared to 69.89% by SPS/SPNFCs-15 bionanocomposite. The high compatibility between SPNFCs nanofiber and SPS biopolymer matrices can be observed through field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM).
Zbadano szybkość degradacji nanowłóknistej celulozy wyizolowanej z palmy cukrowej (Arenga pinnata) (SPNFCs) oraz skrobi wydzielonej przez ekstrakcję z rdzenia pnia tej palmy (SPS). SPNFCs uzyskiwano z włókien palmy cukrowej, poddawanych homogenizacji pod wysokim ciśnieniem w 5, 10 lub 15 cyklach, otrzymując nanowłókna celulozy o różnej długości i średnicy. SPNFCs wprowadzano do SPS uplastycznionego mieszaniną (1 : 1) glicerolu isorbitolu. Metodą odlewania z roztworu wytwarzano błony nanokompozytowe SPS/SPNFCs-5, SPS/SPNFCs-10 i SPS/SPNFCs-15. Test glebowy procesu biodegradacji wykazał, że SPS ulegało szybszej degradacji, tracąc 85,76% swojej masy w ciągu 9 dni, w porównaniu z ubytkiem masy 69,89% w wypadku bionanokompozytu SPS/SPNFCs-15. Na podstawie analizy metodą skaningowej mikroskopii elektronowej z emisją polową (FE-SEM) stwierdzono dużą kompatybilność między nanowłóknami SPNFCs i biopolimerową osnową SPS.

The goal of the current study was to determine the mineral content of different fruit varieties (Na, K, Ca, P, Mg, Fe, Zn, and Cu), as well as the effects of various processing methods (such as canning, drying, stewing, syrup process, and concentration of juices). All tested fruits that were subjected to various types of processing were exposed to a degree of mineral loss, varying from very little to high reduction. However, it still retains its nutritional value. All fig products have the greatest levels of most tested minerals, compared to other processed fruit products, particularly P and Fe. In turn, orange products supply higher quantities of Ca. On the other hand, apricot products have a comparable value of other minerals with those found in fig and orange products. Among canned juices, guava had the highest contents of Ca, P, and Fe, while mango scored the first juice as Mg and Zn supplying. Canned apricot halves contain the best amounts of K, Ca, P and Mg than the same products of apple and peach. Among jam products, fig jam has higher amounts of Na, Ca, P, Mg, and Fe than those found in other fruit jams. The concentration of fruit juices by vacuum-heating or dehydration of fruit produced higher mineral retentions than the fruit products that were processed by other techniques. The concentrated orange juice by vacuum-heating processing retained most of the minerals found in raw juice, also dried apricot sheet retained higher minerals than those retained in dehydrated whole apricot.

Opis:
Aim/purpose – Saudi Arabia is rapidly urbanizing, where the number of urban residents, currently exceeds 80% of the population. Many cities in the country face challenges of sustainability, livability, resilience, and thus global reputation. Therefore, measuring city performance is crucial in assessing urban complexity in order to improve development potential. As stated in Vision 2030 of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia, attempts at improving the global competitiveness and reputation of cities are of prime importance. This attempt aims at developing a culturally sensitive city ranking methodology, testing the method with relevant statistics, and presenting the preliminary results for further discussions, deliberations, and extensions. Design/methodology/approach – In this context, an index named Saudi Arabia’s City-Ranking Index (SACRI) was developed, which proposes a three-dimensional assessment, incorporating livability, competitiveness, and environmental sustainability with 58 indicators (widely used or culturally specific). This exercise is carried out in 17 future cities, considering the feasibility criterion. Findings – Riyadh emerged as the most preferred city with the first rank, followed by Jeddah, Dammam, Madina, and Al Baha in order. Najran ranks 17, the last, preceded by Jazan, Al Qatif, Arar, and Al Taif. Research implications/limitations – This ranking of Saudi Arabia’s cities seeks importance in planning, improving, and promoting livability, competitiveness, and environmental sustainability to grab prominent places on a global scale. Originality/value/contribution – This exercise is unique for Saudi Arabia, with specific cultural dimensions that could be replicated in the neighboring Arab countries.

Opis:
Two new 1,3-naphthoxazine monomers (M-A and M-B) were synthesized via a modified stepwise procedure in which methylene bromide was used for the ring-closure reaction. Condensation of 2-hydroxy-1-naphthaldehyde with 1,6-hexamethylenediamine or 1,4-phenylenediamine gives imine compounds, which were converted to 2-hydroxynaphthylamines by reduction with NaBH4 in methanol. Ring-closure reaction between the 2-hydroxynaphthylamines and methylene bromide results in the formation of 1,3-naphthoxazine monomers M-A or M-B with good yields. The structures of the synthesized monomers were confirmed using different spectroscopic techniques (including FT-IR, 1H NMR and 13C NMR), mass spectrometry, and elemental analysis. Thermal polymerization of the monomers was investigated by FT-IR and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). Both the 1,3-naphthoxazine monomers undergo ring-opening polymerization, leading to the formation of the corresponding polynaphthoxazines [P(M-A) and P(M-B)]. The thermal stability of the polynaphthoxazines was thereafter studied by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA).
Za pomocą zmodyfikowanej trójetapowej syntezy, w której do reakcji zamknięcia pierścienia zastosowano bromek metylenu, otrzymano dwa nowe monomery 1,3-naftoksazyny (M-A i M-B). Kondensacja 2-hydroksy-1-naftaldehydu z 1,6-heksametylenodiaminą lub 1,4-fenylenodiaminą pozwala na wytworzenie związków iminowych, które następnie przez redukcję NaBH4 w metanolu są przekształcane w 2-hydroksynaftylaminy. Reakcja zamknięcia pierścienia pomiędzy 2-hydroksynaftylaminą i bromkiem metylenu prowadzi do utworzenia z dobrymi wydajnościami monomerów 1,3-naftoksazyny M-A i M-B. Struktury zsyntetyzowanych monomerów potwierdzono stosując różne techniki spektroskopowe, spektroskopię masową oraz analizę elementarną. Polimeryzację termiczną monomerów badano za pomącą spektroskopii w podczerwieni z transformatą Fouriera (FT-IR) i różnicowej kalorymetrii skaningowej (DSC). Oba monomery 1,3-naftoksazyny uległy polimeryzacji z otwarciem pierścienia dając odpowiednie polinaftoksazyny [P(M-A) i P(M-B)]. Za pomocą analizy termograwimetrycznej (TGA) zbadano stabilność termiczną otrzymanych polinaftoksazyn.

Opis:
Although many studies have been conducted on the morphological variations and its effects on flotation recoveries of a single mineral system, a systematic study for the flotation behavior of mixtures of minerals has not dwelled much. In this study, th flotation behavior of chromite and serpentine minerals was investigated to distinguish and isolate the contribution of morphology in single and binary systems. For this purpose, the shape analyses for the minerals ground as single and mixture were performed, and their flotation behaviors determined with the micro-flotation experiments. Additionally, the zeta potential measurements were carried out in the presence of sodium oleate as a collector. The shape analysis of the ground samples showed that while the roundness values of chromite and serpentine (gangue) minerals as single were quite different, the particle shape of chromite favored serpentine in the mixture system which in turn suggested that the mineral with the high hardness value dominates the shape characteristics in binary grinding conditions. Accordingly, while the flotation characteristics of chromite in the mixture followed the same trend with the flotation of a single chromite system as a function of particle shape, almost a reverse trend was obtained for the shape and flotation of serpentine in the mixture compared to a single serpentine system. Thus, at roundness values of chromite particles from 0.797 to 0.732, the flotation recoveries of chromite in the mixture increased from 51.0% to 75.4%. On the other hand, likewise chromite, the flotation recoveries of serpentine increased from 20.0% to 37.3% proportional to the roundness range of 0.757 and 0.709. These findings in turn showed that the grinding conditions dictate the soft component to be monitored by the harder and denser component which dominates the angularity and floatability of the mixture.

Opis:
By 2050, global crop demand is projected to rise by 60-110%. Crop yields have also been impacted by cli mate change in some nations, and these impacts are likely to continue. To prevent the influence of climate change on crop output, it is critical to adjust planting times in weather-related open fields to meet food security concerns. Present study was carried out at Experimental Farm of Faculty of Agriculture, Al-Azhar University, Assiut, Egypt, during two successive seasons, 2019 and 2020. It was aimed to study the effect of different sowing times (1st and 15th October, 1st and 15th November), and plant spacings (25, 20, and 15 cm) on growth, fruit yield, and oil production of caraway (Carum carvi L.) plants. The results showed that sowing caraway plants on 15th October with plant spacing of 25 cm gave the highest dry weight (72.6 g∙plant-1), fresh weight (266.15 g∙plant-1), seed yield (37.43 g∙plant-1), and oil yield (0.659 cm 3∙plant-1). The maximum umbels (50.83 number per plant) and essential oil (1.78%) were also recorded in the plants receiving same treatment. On the other hand, plants sown at 15th November with spacing of 15 cm exhibited the minimum values of recorded traits. While the highest value of plant height gave with sowing caraway plants on 15th October with plant spacing of 15 cm (135.35 cm). In conclusion, the plants sowed on October 15th with a maximum plant spacing of 25 cm had the highest values of the evaluated morphological, biochemical, and yield attributes of caraway.

A short term variation of solar flare in nine months (January 2010 to September 2010) is presented. This paper review and analyze the correlation between radio flux strength measurement and solar flare in the X-ray region. The radio flux measurement data were taken from the National Research Council; Ottawa while hard X-ray emission observed by Royal Observatory of Belgium. The overall range of solar radio flux recorded in this study ranging from 68 x 10-22 Wm-2Hz-1 to 96 x 10-22 Wm-2Hz-1. As there was no class of an X of solar flare reported at all in this study, we can confirm that there are no major effects that happened on Earth and outer space such as Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) and solar storms. We concluded that the Sun shows a very minimum activity towards 24th solar cycle.

Opis:
The present article is an attempt to analyze the solar burst Type II observations based on solar flare and Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) events. We choose an intriguing type II radio burst with a velocity of 1193 kms-1 that occurred on 2012 November 13 at 2:04:20 UT. In this case, the study of solar radio burst type III is of paramount importance because of the fact that it helps to gain an insight of generation mechanisms of solar flare and Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) phenomena. Here, we have got a reasonably clear idea of the various forms under which the type III continuum emission may appear and potentially form a type II burst. However, in this case, the Type II solar burst only successfully forms a fundamental structure within the first few minute period, but broken suddenly before evolve a harmonic structure. This phenomenon is very interesting to be tackled and study. How the burst suddenly broken is still ongoing research seems the event is very rare and hard to be proved. There are a few questions that cause this unique situation which related to: (i) the intensity and duration of type III burst which also related to the classification of solar flare (ii) the probabilities CMEs to occur during that time and also the factor of the total amount of massive burst that exploded, Thus, we can conclude that the solar burst type III event still tells us an enigmatic characteristic from time to time due to the relationship of energetic particles and streams of particles with coronal magnetic fields and the pattern of Sun activity due to the 24th solar cycle. It might an interesting to study in detail the main factor that caused the Type II solar burst broken. Indirectly, it might because of the very intense of solar flares that make the percentage of energy of solar flare become more dominant rather than the acceleration of particles through the Coronal Mass Ejections. Thus, we realize that the potential energy during this event is higher than the kinetic energy of the particles.

Important results of the Radio Frequencies Interference (RFI) at the National Space Centre, Sg Lang Selangor, Malaysia has been reported. In order to make sure that the data of solar monitoring in radio region is reliable, we need to study the variation of interference and the possible sources that contribute to this interference. This data has been taken from 1-2000 MHz at the main site of installation e-CALLISTO system. The study is one of a main part of an initiative of e-CALLISTO networking research in order to identify the main RFI sources and to monitor continuously the behavior of the RFI at the site. Our main objective is to qualify the potential of monitoring a continuous radio emission of the Sun. This work is also an initiative of the International Space Weather Initiative (ISWI) project where Malaysia is one of the countries that joined the e-CALLISTO network. Due to our results this site showed the positive impact for the solar monitoring purpose. It is hoped that the survey will continue from time to time in a consistent mode so that any polluted signal for radio astronomy purpose can be protected. Overall, we can still get a good solar burst data, especially at 40-400 MHz. Perhaps, we can contribute the good data for solar burst monitoring towards the maximum cycle beginning the end of this year 2013.

Opis:
Tannic acid or tannin, type of phenolic compound contains in kenaf bast fibre. Conventional extraction has certain limitations in terms of time, energy, and solvent consumption. Ultrasound assisted extraction (UAE) can extract bioactive components in shorter time, low temperature, with lesser energy and solvent requirement. UAE as alternative extraction technique is better equipped to retain the functionality of the bioactive compounds. In this study, the conditions for ultrasound assisted extraction (UAE) of tannic acid from kenaf bast fibre by assessing the effect of sonication time and different duty cycles were optimized. The use of ultrasound to extract tannic acid from kenaf bast fiber was evaluated. Ultrasound-assisted extraction (UAE) was carried out using ethanol as solvent to intensify the extraction efficacy. Phytochemical screening was conducted to identify the presence of tannic acid in extracts. The extracts then were analyzed using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). It was found that 0.2429 mg/mL of tannic acid was obtained under the extraction conditions of extraction temperature of 40℃, sonication time of 20 minutes and duty cycle of 50%. From SEM analysis, it was found that the raw sample demonstrated rough surface and no porous but kenaf bast fibre display smoother surface with less impurities and few pores appeared after the extraction process using UAE. These results indicate that ultrasound-assisted extraction is an efficient method for extracting tannic acid from kenaf bast fibre with the advantages of lower extraction time and higher extraction yield.

In the present work, we will highlight the solar observation during 15th April 2012, solar filament eruption which is accompanied by an intense and gradual Coronal Mass Ejections (CMEs) The explosion of CMEs was observed at 2:12:06 UT and also can be observed by the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) with an Active Region AR1458 is crackling with C-class solar flares. The solar flare class B3 and C2 were observed beginning 2241 UT and 0142 UT. The event is considered as second largest CMEs been detected since five years. Although the solar activity within a few days is considered quite low and there are no proton events were observed at geosynchronous orbit., the is still an unexpected explosion of CMEs can be occurred. The radio flux number (10.7 cm) exceeds 102 with the number of sunspot and area of sunspot increased to 77 and 270. The velocity of CMEs was calculated based on the LASCO2 data. From the results, it is clearly seen that the range of the velocity is between 200 kms-1 to 2000 kms-1. This wide of range proved that the mechanism of the CMEs is a gradual process. The explosion of CMEs velocity is located from 80º - 255º from North of the Sun. We can then conclude that currently, the rearrangement of the magnetic field, and solar flares may result in the formation of a shock that accelerates particles ahead of the CMEs loop and an active region play an important character in this event.

Opis:
In this study, ammonium phosphate ((NH4)3PO4) was employed to realize improvement by modifying the physical characteristics of the malachite surface, ensuring sustainable flotation throughout the flotation operations, and enhancing the flotation process to be more stable. Furthermore, various techniques, including X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, were intensely used to investigate the configuration and physico-chemical surface characteristics through micro-flotation experiments, contact angle and zeta potential measurements, and XRD, ToF-SIMS, EPMA, and FTIR spectrum analyses. The FTIR findings showed that new characteristic peaks of -C(=S)-N.H. groups formed and adsorbed on the surfaces of malachite at 1636 cm-1. The -CH2 groups throughout the flotation process, further promoted the attachment of the CH3 ligand to the Cu2+ ion, and the XPS analysis confirmed this. Consequently, it can be concluded that (NH4)3PO4 played a substantial part in the improved recovery rate, as demonstrated and confirmed by the methods carried out in this study. Thus, it was used to modify the physical properties surface before adding Na2S to efficiently enhance malachite floatability and reduce the loss rate of malachite. Regarding the alterations in the physical characteristics which occurred to the malachite surface, and as a consequence of increasing the recovery results of flotation, the malachite sample treated initially with (NH4)3PO4 exhibited micro flotation results with a considerably greater flotation recovery than malachite treated initially with only Na2S ions.

Opis:
Seven-hundred kilograms of subtropical Barki wool was collected to study the effect of a subjective grading system and blending with polyester on selected wool and yarn characteristics. Wool was graded subjectively into coarse, fine and raw; then each grade was blended with 0%, 15%, 25%, 35% and 45% of polyester. Staple and yarn strengths were higher in both coarse and fine grades compared with raw wool. Staple elongation of the fine grade reached 3 times that of coarse grade and twice as much as raw grade. Also, in the 100% wool blend, yarn elongation of the fine grade was twice as much as both coarse and raw grades. The fine grade had the highest yarn friction, followed by other grades. Generally, adding polyester to coarse and fine grades led to an improved yarn strength compared with the raw grade. Adding 15% polyester caused the highest improvement among other percentages. Correlations among traits were also discussed.
Do badań wykorzystano 700 kg wełny. Dokonano oceny wybranych właściwości wełny i przędz mieszanych wełna/poliester. Wełna była oceniana subiektywnie na grubą, cienką i surową; następnie każdy gatunek został zmieszany z 0%, 15%, 25%, 35% i 45% poliestru. Zbadano wytrzymałość, wydłużenie i współczynnik tarcia przędz. Stwierdzono, że, dodawanie poliestru do grubych i cienkich włókien wełnianych prowadziło do polepszenia wytrzymałości przędz w porównaniu do przędz z włókien surowych. Największą poprawę właściwości spowodowało dodanie 15% poliestru. Omówiono również korelacje między cechami.

Opis:
In this study, a new adsorbent derived from sunflower husk powder and coated in CuO nanoparticles (CSFH) was investigated to evaluate the simultaneous adsorption of Levofloxacin (LEV), Meropenem (MER), and Tetracycline (TEC) from an aqueous solution. Significant improvements in the adsorption capacity of the sunflower husk were identified after the powder particles had been coated in CuO nanoparticles. Kinetic data were correlated using a pseudo-second-order model, and was successful for the three antibiotics. Moreover, high compatibility was identified between the LEV, MER, and TEC, isotherm data, and the Langmuir model, which produced a better fit to suit the isotherm curves. In addition, the spontaneous and exothermic nature of the adsorption process was crucial for transforming the three antibiotics into CSFH. The greatest CSFH adsorption capacity was in MER (131.83 mg/g), followed by TEC (96.95 mg/g), and LEV (62.24 mg/g). These findings thus indicate that CSFH is one of the most effective and efficient adsorbents to use for eliminating wastewater contaminated with antibiotic residue.

Opis:
Nutritional supplements play a role in promoting human protein synthesis, fitness recovery, and mental health protection. Pollen is considered a natural food with excellent nutritional value. The use of bee-gathered pollen as a nutritional supplement is now widespread around the world, and it is appreciated for its healing qualities. However, depending on the floral species and the region of origin, pollen has a wide range of nutritional value. It was found that clover pollen had the highest protein content (31.4 g/100 g DM), while the lowest content was observed in maize pollen (21.3%). Eucalyptus pollen had the highest lipid amount (9.49 g/100 g DM), while clover pollen had the lowest content (7.46 g/100 g). Phytochemical analysis showed that eucalyptus pollen occupied the highest total antioxidant activity (67.02%), followed by clover (58.25%) then maize (52.18%), whereas clover pollen had the highest phenolic content (1165 mg GAE/100 gm), compared with the other pollen varieties (949.4 to 1073 mg-GAE/100 gm). The contents of branched-chain amino acids were 29, 33.3, and 38.4 mg/g for maize, eucalyptus, and clover respectively, representing 17.87, 18.44, and 16.53% of total amino acids. The contents of total essential amino acids (EAAs) were 61.8, 73.0, and 83.5 mg/g for maize, eucalyptus, and clover pollen, respectively. Only eucalyptus pollen ultimately met the minimum requirements of EAAs for adults. In contrast, the other two types of pollen contained at least 3–4 limiting amounts of the essential amino acids leucine, lysine, phenylalanine, and valine. In conclusion, pollen is a good, affordable source of nutrients that can be utilized as beneficial dietary supplements for human health.

Opis:
Water contamination that caused by heavy metals is a very common phenomenon in the industrial age. One of the popular way to treat metal contaminated water is by adsorption process using activated carbon as the adsorbent. This paper works on producing activated carbon by chemical means with impregnation ratios of NaOH:char (w/w) was predetermined at 1:1 (ACT1-1), 2:1 (ACT2-1) and 3:1 (ACT3-1) under activation temperature of 700°C. Considering the Leucaena leucocephala is a wildly, easy and fast grown species, with the availability throught the year, it was chosen to be used as the precursor. The properties of these activated carbons and its potential for cadmium removal from aqueus solution was analyzed. It was found that the highest surface area was recorded at 662.76 m²/g. Four parameters were studied which are contact time, the effect of pH, initial concentration of adsorbate and temperature. The equilibrium time was achieved in 40 min treatment at initial concentrations of 30 mg/l. The adsorbent exhibited good sorption potential for cadmium at pH 8.0 and equilibrium temperature of 30℃. Based on the results, this study had proved that activated carbon from Leucaena leucocephala biomass have the good potential to be used for removal of cadmium from wastewater.
