Precipitation of calcium deficient hydroxyapatite nanoparticles in an environmentally benign manner by using only dilute solutions of calcium hydroxide and phosphoric acid without pH adjustment and addition of other ...

The aim of this work is the fabrication of electrically insulating composite rigid polyurethane foams with improved thermal conductivity. Therefore, this study is focused on the effect of aluminum nitride (AIN) on the ...

Although lichens are natural and cheap sources, there is no study in the literature about the production of activated carbon from lichen species. In this study, a novel activated carbon (ACCI) from non-living lichen Cetraria ...

Despite the large variations in the behaviors of water-reducing admixtures upon changes in their structures, most previous reports on the cement-admixture compatibility did not provide sufficient information on the structure ...

In this study, hydrogen molecule adsorption was investigated on additional framework of Mg atom in OFF type zeolite by way of DFT (Density Functional Theory). The adsorption enthalpy and adsorption energy, chemical potential, ...

The present work describes the first synthesis of novel asymmetric zinc (II) phthalocyanine (ZnPc) including three boron dipyrromethene (BODIPY) and one ethyloxy azido moieties. Moreover, single walled carbon nanotube ...

Background: The Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children, 4th edition (WISC-IV) is a useful tool for revealing differences in cognitive ability. Using the WISC-IV, the study investigated the intelligence profile of Turkish ...

In this study, natural weathering behavior of sixteen different wood species was investigated under the same conditions in order to clarify the resistance against outdoor degrading agents regarding wood color, gloss, surface ...

This paper presents and compares the free and damped forced vibrations of layered and functionally graded composite beams. In the considered study, a cantilever beam subjected to a harmonic point load at the free end is ...

Excavation on the inclined surfaces on the dam reservoir and rising water level may also affect the slope stability of the inclined surfaces in the dam reservoir under static and dynamic conditions. In this study, it is ...
