Correlation between Electrochemical Relaxations and Morphologies of Conducting Polymer Dendrites by Antoine Baron, Enrique H. Balaguera, Sébastien Pecqueur

“…Correlations are established between dispersive capacitances of dendritic morphologies and growth duration, independently from exogenous physical variables: distance, evaporation or aging. Deviation of the anomalous capacitance from the conventional Debye dielectric relaxation can be programmed, as the growth controls the dispersion coefficient of the dendrite's constant-phase elements relaxation. …”

Predicting Kinematic Viscosity and Cetane Number of Diesel- Biodiesel Blend Using Neural Network and Empirical Models by M. yari, Gh. Moradi, M. Abdolmaleki, Sh. Bashiri

“…This study tries to estimate two substantial properties of blend, i.e. kinemattic viscosity (KV) and cetane number (CN), through neural network (NN) and empirical models which use pure properties of biodiesel (kinematic viscosity, boiling point, evaporation point, flash point, pour point, heat of combustion, cloud point, and specific gravity) as independent variables. In this regard, a three-layer feed-forward network with varying input parameters, training algorithms, transfer functions, and hidden neurons has been examined to predict the KV and CN of the diesel-biodiesel blend. …”
