A detailed study about the synthesis, characterization and properties of poly(o-methylaniline)(PoMea)/maghnite nanocomposites
has been performed. Changes in the characteristics of the nanocomposites, depending on the intercalated cation
between the clay layers before the synthesis, have been observed. Intercalated morphology has…

We study stability properties of a proximal point algorithm for solving the inclusion 0 ∈ T (x) when T
is a set-valued mapping that is not necessarily monotone. More precisely we show that the convergence of
our algorithm is uniform,…

While most scholars and researchers recognize that entrepreneurship occurs differently in other countries, there are relatively few undergraduate courses that focus on International Entrepreneurship. Further, of those with an International focus, few provide students with an opportunity to interact with…

The electrochemical oxidation of aniline and p-aminodiphenylamine (ADPA) was carried out in a phosphate buffer solution at pH 5. Cyclic voltammetry and ‘‘in situ’’ FTIR spectroscopy were combined to study the redox behavior of the oxidation products. When ADPA is…

What is the relationship between the awareness of linguistic prestige and the security or insecurity in the use of minoritised languages? Is formal linguistic insecurity (as initially described by Labov) the same as the speakers’ perception of linguistic insecurity? Which…

If robotic companions are to be used in the near future by aging adults, they have to be accepted by them. In the process of developing a methodology to measure, predict and explain acceptance of robotic companions, we researched the…

A Discrete Event System (DES) is a discrete state space dynamic system that evolves in accordance with the instantaneous occurrence, at possibly unkown times, of physical events. Given a DES, its behavior (the sequence of displayed events) may not satisfy…

We study regularity properties of the subdifferential of proper lower semicontinuous convex functions
in Hilbert spaces. More precisely, we investigate the metric regularity and subregularity, the strong
regularity and subregularity of such a subdifferential. We characterize each of these properties…

Resistance training for acyclic sports has traditionally been carried out using training methods developed for cyclic sports. These methods were developed from the study of the physiological bases of maximum oxygen consumption (VO2max), prioritising “central” cardiovascular factors (cardiac) above “peripheral”…

A study of seawater intrusion under controlled laboratory conditions using multicomponent heterovalent chromatography is presented. The aim was to understand the influence of several variables on hydrogeochemical transport, especially on gypsum precipitation and cationic exchange. In addition, the study aimed…
