MODELING AND OPTIMIZATION OF DISTRICT COOLING SYSTEM حسب ISMAEN, RABAH

"…This research focuses on modeling and optimization of the design and operation of a district cooling system (DCS). The research investigates two solution paths: (1) the system transformation leading to re-organizing the conventional system (powered by the grid electricity) to achieve better economic and energy performance, and (2) the system integration of solar cooling technologies to enhance sustainable development for decreasing CO2 emissions. …"

Plasticization and co-crystallization in LLDPE/wax blends. حسب Gumede, Thandi P.

"…The structure and thermal properties of linear low density polyethylene (LLDPE)/medium soft paraffin wax blends, prepared by melt mixing, were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and small- and wide-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS and WAXS). The blends form a single phase in the melt as determined by SAXS. …"

Cellular immune activation in Sardinian middle-aged, older adults and centenarians حسب Sotgia, Salvatore

"…Notably, the group of centenarians had neopterin values comparable to those of 80- and 90-year-old groups, and significantly lower than that of 95-year-old group. This suggests a decreased monocyte/macrophage-mediated immune activation and an apparently preserved immune status in centenarians.…"

Novel electroless deposited corrosion — resistant and anti-bacterial NiP–TiNi nanocomposite coatings حسب Fayyad E.M.

"…The addition of TiNi nanoparticles into the NiP matrix leads to the transformation of the amorphous structure of the as-plated NiP into a semi-crystalline one. The microhardness of the composite coating significantly enhances with increasing the TiNi concentration up to 0.4 g L−1 and further improvement takes place after the heat treatment. …"
