This study aims to determine the effectiveness of two methods of correction of diffuse irradiance measured with shadowbands: LeBaron-Perez method and Dal Pai-Escobedo method. For the LeBaron-Perez method, we use the original ...

Oxygen is an important element for plant growth. Reducing its concentration in the soil affects plant physiological processes such as nutrient and water uptake as well as respiration, the redox potential of soil elements ...

We study the diffusion process in binary mixtures using transition probabilities that depend on a mean-field potential. This approach reproduces the Darken equation, a relationship between the intrinsic and the tracer ...

Mathematical models bind theory to precise formulations, and by doing so accentuate logical inconsistences in theories and facilitate their testing. In this article we explore the implications of simple mathematical models ...

A method to determine kinetics, diffusion and adsorption equilibrium parameters simultaneously in porous catalyst particles, where a first order chemical reaction occurs under diffusion control conditions in batch reactor, ...

Zirconium and its alloys are widely used in nuclear industry (nuclear fuel cladding tubes, structural materials, etc.) for its adequate properties under hostile conditions (corrosive environment, radiation damage, etc.) ...
