Influence of anionic surface modifiers on the thermal stability and mechanical properties of layered double hydroxide/polypropylene nanocomposites حسب Yang, J.H.

"…Organo-layered double hydroxide/polypropylene (LDH/PP) nanocomposites were successfully synthesized via a solution blending method. As an attempt to improve the compatibility with hydrophobic PP, the LDH surface was modified by the incorporation of various anionic surfactants via electrostatic interaction with LDH cationic layers. …"

Use Of Cement By-Pass Dust In Soil Stabilization حسب Taha, Ramzi

"…Mixtures were subjected to the following tests: (1) Atterberg limits, (2) pH, (3) compaction, (4) California Bearing Ratio (CBR), (5) swell percent, and (6) swell pressure. Results indicate that as cement by-pass dust content increases, the swell percent and maximum dry density decrease while the pH and CBR values tend to increase. …"

Overconfident results with the bivariate random effects model for meta-analysis of diagnostic accuracy studies حسب Furuya-Kanamori, Luis

"…Diaz found that the performance of the bivariate model deteriorates when between-study heterogeneity increases and the number of studies decrease.5 Our simulation studies found similar results—with moderate levels of heterogeneity (tau2 = 1), the coverage probabilities of Se, Sp, and the diagnostic odds ratio (DOR) with the bivariate model dropped below the nominal level.6 Diagnostic accuracy studies usually favor sensitivity over specificity, or vice versa leading to diagnostic 2 × 2 tables with one or more of the cells with low frequency or zero counts. …"

Investigation Into the Effects of Non-Linear Loading of Domestic Power Network on Home Appliances حسب Hossain, Ajad

"…These light sources and other house-hold appliances using power electronic converters are termed as non-linear loads and they introduce distortion in the power network by generating harmonics in the current, leading to poor power quality [1 − 4]. Power quality issues are now becoming a major concern because of several reasons: a) Increasing dependence on electrical supply and even small disruption or interruption are not bearable because it can halt the modern lifestyle, b) new modern electrical equipment are highly sensitive to the power quality and c) the power electronic components such as variable speed drives and switched mode power supplies poses new disturbance challenges to the electrical supply network [5 − 7]. …"
