Edge Maximal C2k+1-edge Disjoint Free Graphs
(
University of Zielona Gora
, 2012 , Article)
For two positive integers r and s, G(n;r,s) denotes to the class of graphs on n vertices containing no r of s-edge disjoint cycles and f(n;r,s) = max{E(G):G ∈ G(n;r,s)}. In this paper, for integers r ≥ 2 and k ≥ 1, we ...
Disruption factor of asphalt mixtures
(
Taylor & Francis
, 2012 , Article)
Typically, aggregate gradation is selected to meet Superpave mix design specification; however, many Superpave mixtures have exhibited deficient field performance. The porosity of the dominant aggregate size range (DASR), ...

Bank Characteristics and Liquidity Transformation: The Case of GCC Banks
(
Canadian Center of Science and Education (CCSE)
, 2012 , Article)
This paper uses a simple measure of liquidity creation to examines empirically the effect of bank capital and
other micro and macro-characteristics on liquidity creation. We apply the analysis to data from a sample of ...
Scalar dissipation rate statistics in turbulent flows using Planar Laser Induced Fluorescence measurements
(
Elsevier
, 2012 , Article)
A shearless mixing layer with isotropic decaying turbulence has been examined with a turbulent axisymmetric opposed-jet flow and a plume in pipe flow. The study has been carried out experimentally with Planar Laser Induced ...
Adsorption of 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid onto date seeds activated carbon: Equilibrium, kinetic and thermodynamic studies
(2012 , Article)
Adsorption isotherm and kinetics of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) herbicide on activated carbon prepared from Barhi date seeds were determined from batch tests. The effects of contact time, initial herbicide ...
Dynamics of charge evolution in glass capillaries for 230-keV Xe23 + ions
(
American Physical Society
, 2012 , Article)
We have measured the transmission of 230-keV (10-keV/q) Xe23+ ions through insulating tapered glass capillaries of microscopic dimensions. The dynamics of charging and discharging processes have been investigated, evidencing ...
