Fixed point theorems on ordered metric spaces and applications to nonlinear elastic beam equations
2012
In this paper, we establish certain fixed point theorems in metric spaces with a partial ordering. Presented theorems extend and generalize several existing results in the literature. As application, we use the fixed point theorems obtained in this paper to study existence and uniqueness of solutions for fourth-order two-point boundary value problems for elastic beam equations.
The Calderón problem for the fractional Schrödinger equation
2020
We show global uniqueness in an inverse problem for the fractional Schr\"odinger equation: an unknown potential in a bounded domain is uniquely determined by exterior measurements of solutions. We also show global uniqueness in the partial data problem where the measurements are taken in arbitrary open, possibly disjoint, subsets of the exterior. The results apply in any dimension $\geq 2$ and are based on a strong approximation property of the fractional equation that extends earlier work. This special feature of the nonlocal equation renders the analysis of related inverse problems radically different from the traditional Calder\'on problem.
Effect of Large Changes in Temperature and Pressure on the Thermodynamic Properties of Micellization and on the Distribution Constant of a Polar Solu…
1996
Density measurements of pentanol (PentOH)−dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB)−water mixtures as functions of both alcohol and surfactant (mS) concentrations were carried out at 0.1 MPa from 45 to 75 °C and at 19 MPa from 25 to 130 °C. The standard (infinite dilution) partial molar volumes and expansibilities of DTAB in water and the corresponding properties in the micellar phase were calculated from the experimental data. As far as PentOH in DTAB micellar solutions is concerned, with the exception of the standard partial molar volume (V°R) data at 130 °C and 19 MPa, all the V°R vs mS trends are monotonic curves with mS. The data of V°R as a function of mS were treated by means of an equ…
Aqueous nonionic copolymer-functionalized laponite clay. A thermodynamic and spectrophotometric study to characterize its behavior toward an organic …
2006
The affinity of functionalized Laponite clay toward an organic material in the aqueous phase was explored. Functionalization was performed by using triblock copolymers based on ethylene oxide (EO) and propylene oxide (PO) units that are EO(11)PO(16)EO(11) (L35) and PO(8)EO(23)PO(8) (10R5). Phenol (PhOH) was chosen as organic compound, which represents a contaminant prototype. To this purpose, densities and enthalpies of mixing as well as PhOH UV-absorption spectra were determined. The enthalpy and the spectrophotometry revealed PhOH-Laponite interactions whereas the volume did not. It emerged that the area occupied by PhOH on the Laponite surface is equal to that computed from the partial m…
Partial molar volumes of cobalt(II) chloride in ethanol + water at 298.15 K
1996
Densities of ethanol + water + cobalt(II) chloride mixtures have been measured with an oscillating-tube densimeter over a large range of concentrations of salt, at 298.15 K. From these densities, apparent molar volumes of the electrolyte in these mixtures have been calculated, and partial molar volumes at infinite dilution have been evaluated, at different concentrations of alcohol in the solvent.
Thermodynamics of Solubilization of Pentanol in Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate-Dodecyldimethylamine Oxide Mixed Micelles
1994
Abstract Heat capacity and density measurements of pentanol (PeOH)-sodium dodecyl sulfate (NaDS)-dodecyldimethylamine oxide-water mixtures were carried out at 0.03 m PeOH as a function of the total surfactants concentration (mc) at different ratios (XNaDS). From experimental data, the apparent molar volumes (VΦ,R) and heat capacities (CΦ,R) of PeOH in the surfactants mixture solutions were calculated. As a general feature, at a given mixture composition, VΦ,R increases monotonically with mt as observed in pure surfactants. In the cases of XNaDS = 0.1 and 0.3, VΦ,R drops at about 0.1 and 0.15 mt respectively. The decreasing CΦ,R VS mt curve shows peculiarities which were ascribed to the pres…
Apparent molar volumes of lithium nitrate in 1-propanol + water in the temperature range from 288.15 to 318.15 K
2002
Abstract Densities of 1-propanol+water+lithium chloride mixtures have been measured with an oscillating-tube densimeter over a large range of concentrations of the salt and 1-propanol at 288.15, 298.15, 308.15, and 318.15 K. From these densities, apparent molar volumes of lithium chloride in 1-propanol+water mixtures have been calculated for each temperature, and apparent molar volumes at infinite dilution have been evaluated. An empirical correlation for partial molar volumes of lithium chloride in 1-propanol+water mixtures with solvent composition and temperature has been derived.
La Cumparsita: a source of lawsuits Contursi and Maroni vs. Matos Rodríguez
2016
This article deploys Tango along with the lawsuits concerning to whom participated in the elaboration of “La Cumparsita” and its lyrics as a frame of reference for discussing about copyrights and intellectual property. In addition to giving an opinion about the procedure to arrive at the final solution related to the adjudication of the copyrights along its effects of that in each one of the beneficiaries, the author tell us a little bit of the process of creating this musical composition as well as the scope it had during its time. El presente artículo utiliza al Tango, a los pleitos y personajes que participaron en la elaboración de La cumparista y sus letras, como marco referencial para …
Tales of saviours and iconoclasts. On the provenance of "the Dead Sea Scrolls of Buddhism"
2021
Academic research on newly discovered ancient Buddhist manuscripts is largely based on objects that come from the antiquities market and to a much lesser degree on objects coming from documented and controlled archaeological excavations. Despite their being unprovenanced, collectors and scholars often present such objects with narratives mimicking provenance. The use of the label "Dead Sea Scrolls" attached to archaeological material without connections to Judaism or early Christianity is a prevalent example of this scholarly praxis. In this article, we deconstruct provenance narratives associated with the undocumented Buddhist manuscripts in the Schøyen Collection and discuss their implica…
State classification for autonomous gas sample taking using deep convolutional neural networks
2017
Despite recent rapid advances and successful large-scale application of deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) using image, video, sound, text and time-series data, its adoption within the oil and gas industry in particular have been sparse. In this paper, we initially present an overview of opportunities for deep CNN methods within oil and gas industry, followed by details on a novel development where deep CNN have been used for state classification of autonomous gas sample taking procedure utilizing an industrial robot. The experimental results — using a deep CNN containing six layers — show accuracy levels exceeding 99 %. In addition, the advantages of using parallel computing with GP…
