Kinetic theory

Korsmeyes-Peppas release kinetics model. R2 coefficient was compared and was concluded that Higuchi release kinetics model is best suited for the drug release kinetics for Curcumin. Introduction and Significance: Nanoparticle formulations have found extensive applications as drug delivery

Abstract: This project deals with the designing a control system for Underwater Gliders. Among the Autonomous underwater vehicles, the most efficient ones are the underwater gliders as they are driven by buoyancy and they spend much of their flight time in stable, steady motion. This project deals with the modelling the control system for efficiently maneuvering the glider using the equations of motion for the underwater glider. After modelling the system it is simulated with various inputs such

Energy Efficient Controller Design for Underwater Gliders Maneuvering MEEM 5990 – SPECIAL TOPIC Dr. Nina Mahmoudian Submitted by Anudeep Reddy Karra ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I express my sincere gratitude towards Dr.Nina Mahmoudian on providing me an opportunity to work on this project. I am grateful for providing an opportunity to work under her and also providing an excellent project mentor like Mr. Barzin Moridian to work with. I would also like to thank Mr.Barzin Moridian for

Alka Seltzer Dissolving at Different Temperatures The variable that I will change will be the temperature of the water that the Alka Seltzer is put in. For my results I will measure the time taken for the Alka seltzer tablet to completely dissolve in water at different temperatures. Input variables: * Varying surface area of Alka-Seltzer tablet, i.e. if cut into smaller pieces or crushed it will increase the surface area. (If the surface area is increased (more powdered) the rate

The Physics of Basketball There are many aspects to the game of basketball and physics can be applied to all of them. Although to be good at basketball it is not necessary to play it from a physics point of view. Basketball players become good by developing muscle memory for the actions that must be performed in the game of basketball from years of practice. Nevertheless knowing some of the physics in the game of basketball can help a good player be a better player. In this paper I will cover

the ball one way, the air resistance is coming the opposite direction. Let go of the bowling ball and you can see it in motion. If an object moves, the by virtue of that motion it is capable of doing work. It has energy in motion, or kinetic energy. The kinetic energy of an object depends on the mass of the object as well as its speed. KE = ½mv². When you let go of that bowling ball, you do work on it to give it speed to get that nice rotation. The

Physics of Pinball Pinball is a fast pace game of physics and skill. With the knowledge of the mechanics and the physics of how the game works it can be played more effectively. Friction, gravity, potential energy, kinetic energy, circuits and momentum are just a few of the aspects of physics apply. The first thing to do to start a game of pinball is to insert the coin. This alone requires many fundamental aspects of physics. The player inserts the coin and lets gravity take over. Gravity

is because of the rate of chemical reactions increasing along with increasing temperature. When one refers to the temperature of a system, it is described as the measure of the average kinetic energy of the particles in a sample of matter. Increases in the temperature of a system results from increases in the kinetic energy of the system. The higher the temperature, the more energy atoms have, causing them to move more rapidly. In the same

“If you can imagine a thing, conjure it up in space then you can make it... The universe is real but you can't see it. You have to imagine it. Then you can be realistic about reproducing it”(Alexander Calder). Alexander Calder was born in Lawnton, Pennsylvania, on July 22, 1898. Calder’s family was filled with sculptors. Alexander’s grandfather, Alexander Milne Calder, was a sculptor born in Scotland and in 1868, he moved to Philadelphia. He worked on many historical carvings of Philadelphia City
