Phase Transitions in Pure and Hybrid Hydrogels: A Fluorescence Study
(Wiley, 2009)
Recent observations on phase transitions around the critical point showed that the critical exponents differed drastically from percolation results and classical results for pure hydrogel systems depending on monomer ...
Analytical Expense Management System
(IEEE, 2009)
Although the development of communication technologies (e.g: UMTS ADSL) allowed the elaboration of multiple users' web applications (e.g. information storage) there are still many improvements on many applications to be ...
Critical Exponents of Thermal Phase Transitions of kappa-Carrageenan in Various Salt Solutions
(Wiley-VCH Verlag GmbH, 2009)
The steady state fluorescence (SSF) technique was employed to study the phase transitions Of kappa-carrageenan in NaCl and KCl solutions. Pyranine was used as a fluorescence probe for monitoring these transitions. Scattered ...

Modeling the optical properties of WO(3) and WO(3)-SiO(2) thin films
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2008)
The optical properties and surface morphology of sol-gel spin coated WO(3) and WO(3)-SiO(2) composite films annealed at 250 and 400 degrees C are investigated. For the purpose of extracting the optical parameters of the ...
Five-year surveillance of nosocomial infections following orthopedic surgery in a private medical center
(Springer, 2008)
Introduction Nosocomial infections (NI) are a major problem in health care facilities resulting in extended length of stay substantial morbidity and mortality and excess cost. In this study we aimed to know the rates ...
Electrochromic properties of heat-treated thin films of CeO2-TiO2-ZrO2 prepared by sol-gel route
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2008)
CeO2-TiO2-ZrO2 thin films were prepared using the sol-gel process and deposited on glass and ITO-coated glass substrates via dipcoating technique. The samples were heat treated between 100 and 500 degrees C. The heat ...
Performance of transmit and receive antenna selection in the presence of channel estimation errors
(IEEE-INST Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2008)
This letter considers the effect of channel estimation errors on the performance of space-time coded (STC) systems with transmit and receive antenna selection over quasi-static flat fading channels. By performing pairwise ...
