The cerium-based metal-organic framework UiO-66 (Ce) was examined as a potential adsorbent for the 99 Mo/ 99m Tc generator. The results show that the adsorbent had an outstanding adsorption performance, reaching up to 475 mg/g adsorption capacity at pH 3. The adsorption mechanism was proposed,...

Mechanical characterization by multiscale indentation of dense particle reinforced Ni/Al2O3 metal matrix nanocomposites (MMNC) obtained by high-kinetic processing (HKP) of ball milling of the powders with a systematic variation of alumina nanoparticles fractions (from 1 to 20 vol.%) and spark...

To improve the oxidation resistance of the SiC-MoSi2 coating prepared by two-step pack cementation, a liquid Si infiltrating method was adopted to modify it. The phase composition and microstructure of the coatings were analyzed by XRD and SEM. The results show that the size and number of the...

This paper investigates the urban-rural inequality of opportunity in health care in China based on the theory of equality of opportunity of Roemer (1998). Following the compensation principle proposed by Fleurbaey and Schokkaert (2011), this paper establishes a decomposition strategy of the...

We have applied the Exact Affine Stone Index(EASI) implicit Marshallian demand system ,invented by Lewbel and Pendakur (2009),and iterate three stage least squares to analysis Chinese household consumer demand in urban area.Our results show a demand system rank to equal five support the...

On the basis of local concavity assumptions, Exact Affine Stone Index implicit Marshallian demand system is adopted to analyze Engel Curves and price elasticity for Chinese urban household. Our results show that a demand system rank can be polynomials or splines of any order which support the...

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to propose a novel event-triggered aperiodic intermittent sliding-mode control (ETAI-SMC) algorithm for master–slave bilateral teleoperation robotic systems to further save communication resources while maintaining synchronization precision....

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to develop a model of the processes through which approach and avoidance motivation influence constructive and defensive voice behavior, with the moderating role of workplace ostracism and contingent self-esteem. Design/methodology/approach – The paper...

The focus of this work is the development of testing procedures for the existence of change-points in parametric hazard models of various types. Hazard functions and the related survival functions are common units of analysis for survival and reliability modeling. We develop a methodology to...
