In the present paper, a model for treatment by radiation of cancer is developed, where the radiation affects normal cells proportionately. We consider only the case where the radiation delivery is constant. In particular, ...

A control system based on digital image processing was developed for the tobacco curing process in a bulkcuring barn. A laboratory prototype of the barn was built to test the automation of the process and the results with ...

A mathematical model was developed in order to represent the uptake of curing salts (NaNO2, KNO3, and NaCl) in pork meat pieces with the purpose of determining immersion times and suitable salt concentrations in the brine ...

The lack of adequate curing conditions, and related problems such as poor hydration, shrinkage and cracking, are among the main reasons for the reduction in durability of reinforced concrete structures. Considering the ...
