Entropy generation is equivalent to destruction of available work (exergy). The useful energy is destroyed due to the intrinsic irreversibility associated within thermodynamic systems. Exergy analysis can be used as an ...

In this paper we establish some common fixed point theorems for two self-mappings satisfying a generalized contractive condition. This result generalizes well known comparable results in the literature. As an application, ...

Designing a pedagogically sound and technically executable collaboration script is a highly complex, time-consuming and error-prone task. This paper presents a model-driven approach to enable practitioners to design online ...

Hyperlipidemia (HL) was previously shown to lower liver uptake of the more potent (-) enantiomer of ketoconazole (KTZ) in rat. The current study examined the possible modifying influence of experimental HL on a KTZ ...

Railway-induced ground vibration is often associated with sites with soft ground. Stiffening of the subgrade beneath the railway track is one particular measure that has potential to reduce the vibration level at such ...

تعني الأهلية القدرة على إبرام الصلح، إلا أن ذلك لا ينطبق على أشخاص القانون العام الذين يدخلون طرفاً في الصلح الاداري، حيث لا تنطبق عليهم أحكام الأهلية المنصوص عليها في القانون الخاص، بل تطبق عليهم الأحكام النظيرة للأهلية ...

تبرم العقود الادارية بشكل رئيسي عن طريق اطار اجرائي يحدده القانون، وإذا كان عقد الصلح عقداً إدارياً، فإنه لابد من التساؤل عن خضوع هذا النوع من العقود الادارية لاطار اجرائي محدد عند تبادل الرضا بين الادارة والغير، وهو الامر ...

Absolute cross sections for the single and double K-shell photoionization of carbon like O2+ and nitrogen like O+ ions were measured in the 526–620-eV photon energy range by employing the ion-photon merged-beam technique ...

In order to overproduce bioinsecticides production by a sporeless Bacillus thuringiensis strain, an optimal composition of a cheap medium was defined using a response surface methodology. In a first step, a Plackett-Burman ...

The purpose of this paper is to compare the segmental information disclosures of Jordanian companies under IFRS 8 for 2009 with disclosures under IAS 14R for 2008. Design/methodology/approach – A sample of 109 Jordanian ...
