Molecular and electronic structure elucidation of Fe2+/Fe3+ complexed chelators used in iron sulphide scale removal in oil and gas wells
(
Wiley-Liss Inc.
, 2019 , Article)
Quantum chemical calculations based on DFT are employed to study the electronic structure and binding affinity of chelators used in the removal of iron sulphide scales. Three chelating agents, EDTA, HEDTA, and DTPA, are ...
Effect of hot extrusion and T6 heat treatment on microstructure and mechanical properties of Al-10Zn-3.5Mg-2.5Cu nanocomposite reinforced with graphene nanoplatelets
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Al-10Zn-3.5Mg-2.5Cu/graphene nanocomposites were developed by a combination of liquid metallurgy and hot extrusion techniques. The effect of varying graphene content (0.1%, 0.3%, 0.7% and 1.0%) on microstructure and ...

Warfarin-Rifampin-Gene (WARIF-G) Interaction: A Retrospective, Genetic, Case–Control Study
(
Wiley-Blackwell
, 2023 , Article)
Warfarin is extensively metabolized by cytochrome P450 2C9 (CYP2C9). Concomitant use with the potent CYP2C9 inducer, rifampin, requires close monitoring and dosage adjustments. Although, in theory, warfarin dose increase ...
Green tea epigallocatechin 3-gallate alleviates hyperglycemia and reduces advanced glycation end products via nrf2 pathway in mice with high fat diet-induced obesity
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
Abstract Epigallocatechin 3-gallate (EGCG) from green tea may reduce plasma glucose and alleviate complications of diabetes by attenuating advanced glycation end products (AGEs) formation. We hypothesized that EGCG would ...
A Lightweight Privacy-Aware IoT-Based Metering Scheme for Smart Industrial Ecosystems
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2021 , Article)
The smart grid emerges as a new era of the electronic power grid. It integrates advanced sensing technologies, communications, and controlling methods that tell how electricity travels from different generation points to ...
A novel method for estimating the angle from analog co-sinusoidal quadrature signals
(
Elsevier
, 2008 , Article)
The paper presents a new low cost and accurate method for determining the angle from sine and cosine signals produced by resolvers and sinusoidal encoders. In the proposed scheme, multiple phase-shifted sinusoids (PSS) are ...
Enhancing the flocculation of stable bentonite suspension using hybrid system of polyelectrolytes and NADES
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2022 , Article)
In this study, the influence of a hybrid coagulation/flocculation process on the electrokinetic of highly stable bentonite suspension has been examined. Choline chloride (ChCl) based natural deep eutectic solvent (NADES) ...
Comparison of performance and health indicators between perimenopausal and postmenopausal obese women: the effect of high-intensity interval training (HIIT).
(
Lippincott, Williams & Wilkins
, 2020 , Article)
This study examined the effects of 6 weeks of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on performance and health indicators in obese perimenopausal (PERIM) women and similarly aged and older postmenopausal women (POSTM1 and ...
