The synthetic pyrethroids fenvalerate and cypermethrine, natural pyrethrum and lindane were investigated as wood preservatives under conditions of application to determine their contribution to indoor pollution. While pyrethrum degraded within 10 days, fenvalerate and cypermethrine showed high stability and long-term remaining in wood and no volatility into gasphase. In contrast to lindane they do not contribute to indoor pollution. 相似文献
Although Long-term Evolution (LTE) technology has currently being used in data and voice transmission, reserved frequency bands for GSM is still in use due to its strengthen against multipath fading and it provides wider coverage area. Poor coverage problems caused by low signal level directly reduce network performance and cause undesirable cases for voice transmission. The aim of this study is first to solve handover (HO) problems due to the low signal quality and bad speech quality by hardware configuration and changing optimization parameters in detail as a novelty. The second is to examine the KPI values of the test region where HO problems have been solved and to determine whether the network contributed to the network quality. Offered method has made the network having following improvements; the value of RxQual drops from 0.61 to 0.57, number of failure in random access channel (RACH) drops down from 12 to 2, the number of failure in SDCCH drops down from 6 to 2, the total number of blocked calls from 18 to 4, and the number of dropped calls drops down to 2 from 5. Another criterion of the network quality the average for both uplink and downlink mean opinion score (MOS) value of region increased from 3.51 to 3.86. Also CSSR has been increased from 94.43 to 97.82% and HO success rate has been reached from 93.56 to 99.13%.
Pentachlorophenylethers (PCP-ethers) of cellulose are prepared using cellulosetosylates as intermediates. The products release no measurable quantities of PCP into buffered solutions (pH 4, 7, and 9, resp.). However, the modified cellulose shows no fungicidal effect in agar plate tests with the usually cellulose-metabolizing fungus, Trichoderma viride. The lack of biological activity is attributed to the stability of the cellulose pentachlorophenyl ether bond. 相似文献
In this study, the biosorption of nickel(II) ions on Enteromorpha prolifera, a green algae, was investigated in a batch system. The single and combined effects of operating parameters such as initial pH, temperature, initial metal ion concentration and biosorbent concentration on the biosorption of nickel(II) ions on E. prolifera were analyzed using response surface methodology (RSM). The optimum biosorption conditions were determined as initial pH 4.3, temperature 27 degrees C, biosorbent concentration 1.2 g/L and initial nickel(II) ion concentration 100 mg/L. At optimum biosorption conditions, the biosorption capacity of E. prolifera for nickel(II) ions was found to be 36.8 mg/g after 120 min biosorption. The Langmuir and Freundlich isotherm models were applied to the equilibrium data and defined very well both isotherm models. The monolayer coverage capacity of E. prolifera for nickel(II) ions was found as 65.7 mg/g. In order to examine the rate limiting step of nickel(II) biosorption, such as the mass transfer and chemical reaction kinetics, the intraparticle diffusion model, external diffusion model and the pseudo second order kinetic model were tested with the experimental data. It was found that for both contributes to the actual biosorption process. The pseudo second order kinetic model described the nickel(II) biosorption process with a good fitting. 相似文献
In this study, cadmium sulfide (CdS) nanocrystal thin films and nanowires have been deposited onto mechanically flexible substrates via dc-electrodeposition, which is a very suitable technique for large area manufacturing. For the first time with this study, flexible CdS nanocrystal thin films were integrated into photoelectrochemical (PEC) cells and their performances were compared with CdS nanowires. It has been demonstrated that PEC performance of both nanocrystal thin films and nanowires were a strong function of production conditions such as deposition time and voltage. The maximum power conversion efficiency of the CdS nanocrystal thin films obtained in this study was 0.3%. On the other hand, higher efficiencies (about 1.4%) were observed for the CdS nanowires. UV-vis analysis confirmed that both transmittance and band gap energies of the CdS nanowires were lower than that of CdS nanocrystal thin films. X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that both nanocrystal thin films and nanowires have a preferred orientation at 26° (2θ), which can be attributed to the CdS (0 0 2) structure. 相似文献
There are many strengthening methods made with steel cross members for strengthening the structures with inadequate earthquake behavior. This type of strengthening methods is also effective in buckling of the cross members in the behavior of the structural frames. This buckling may cause partial or complete collapse of the structure. Thus, it is quite important to prevent and limit the formation of buckling in steel crosses. At the TEC 2018, the insulation unit is defined as the elements that can exhibit flexible behavior on the horizontal direction and rigid behavior on the vertical direction under the effect of earthquake loads. The basic principle of using insulation units is that these members can dissipate energy in the carrier system. The originality of this study is to experimentally investigate the damper behavior created by using cylindrical rubber wedges, which can be easily found in the automotive industry, in combination with steel plates and bolts. In this experimental study, the contribution of seismic insulators to the structural element to be strengthened was investigated. The insulators used in this study are considered by analogy with lead-core rubber insulators. As such seismic lead-core rubber insulators move under the influence of lateral loads, the lead core inside makes plastic deformation, thus increasing the damping rate. In this insulator study, it is aimed to use U plates or bolts instead of lead core. While vertical loads are covered by rubber support, horizontal loads will be damped due to plastic deformation of U plates or bolts. The five types of seismic dampers were used as 10 B-type rubber wedge mounted damper (SR), 2 U-type steel plates damper (SP), 10 M6 steel bolted damper (SB), 2 U-type steel plates and 10 B-type rubber wedge mounted damper (SPR), 10 M6 steel bolted, and 10 C-type rubber wedge mounted damper (SBR). These specimens were tested under lateral loading and constant vertical loading. The results obtained at the end of the tests shall be compared considering the strength, stiffness, and dissipated energy capacities of the specimens. 相似文献
In this study, 17Mn4 (P295GH) pressure vessels steel and AISI304 stainless steel were welded with ER309L austenitic consumable.
In experimental part of the study, tensile tests were conducted on welded plates and variation of hardness values along specimen
was measured. J-integral fracture toughness values were investigated for different crack locations. In order to determine
the regions where plastic deformation did not take place due to constraint, uni-axial tensile test was performed on welded
tensile specimen after attaching strain gauges. In numerical part of the study, finite element (FE) analyses were conducted
by fixing 2-D models precracked on different locations by using ANSYS software. In these models, stress triaxiality and plastic
deformation characteristics around crack tip were determined for each crack locations after stress — strain analyses. The
limitation on the extension of plastic deformation at diffusion line causes extra increase in stress triaxiality at crack
tip. 相似文献
The electrochemical oxidation of simulated textile wastewater was studied on iron electrodes in the presence of NaCl electrolyte in a batch electrochemical reactor. The simulated textile wastewater was prepared from industrial components based on the real mercerized and non-mercerized cotton and viscon process, being first in literature. The highest COD, color and turbidity removals were achieved as 93.9%, 99.5%, and 82.9%, respectively, at 40% pollution load, 8 V applied potential, 37.5 g/L electrolyte concentration and 30 degrees C reaction temperature. The electrochemical treatment of industrial textile wastewater was optimized using response surface methodology (RSM), where applied potential and electrolyte concentration were to be minimized while COD, color and turbidity removal percents were maximized at 100% pollution load. In a specific batch run under the optimum conditions of 30 degrees C reaction temperature, 25 g/L electrolyte concentration and 8 V applied potential applied with 35.5 mA/cm2 current density at 100% pollution load, COD, color and turbidity removals were realized as 61.6%, 99.6% and 66.4%, respectively. 相似文献
Focus stacking and high dynamic range (HDR) imaging are two paradigms of computational photography. Focus stacking aims to produce an image with greater depth of field (DOF) from a set of images taken with different focus distances; HDR imaging aims to produce an image with higher dynamic range from a set of images taken with different exposure values. In this paper, we present an algorithm which combines focus stacking and HDR imaging in order to produce an image with both extended DOF and dynamic range from a set of differently focused and exposed images. The key step in our algorithm is focus stacking regardless of the differences in exposure values of input images. This step includes photometric and spatial registration of images, and image fusion to produce all-in-focus images. This is followed by HDR radiance estimation and tonemapping. We provide experimental results with real data to illustrate the algorithm. 相似文献
