Complex Analysis Of The Lossy-Transmission Line Theory: A Generalized Smith Chart, E. Gago-Ribas, C. Dehesa-Martinez, M. J. Gonzalez-Morales

Turkish Journal of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences

It has been very usual in the specialized literature to skip the detailed study of the lossy transmission line theory by reducing it to the low-loss approximation. Although this is valid in the most common practical cases, the study of the general lossy case becomes very important due to the fact that it makes possible a better and deeper understanding of the physical effects associated to general losses, as well as the low-loss frequency-dependent regime. Besides, the analysis of the general case provides important results that may be extended to the analysis of real waveguiding systems, facilitating the understanding and …


The Effect Of Acid Digestion On The Recoveries Of Trace Elements: Recommended Policies For The Elimination Of Losses, Güler Somer, Arzu Nakişci Ünlü Jan 2006

The Effect Of Acid Digestion On The Recoveries Of Trace Elements: Recommended Policies For The Elimination Of Losses, Güler Somer, Arzu Nakişci Ünlü

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Digestion of biological materials is very important for trace element determinations. Although the microwave technique is mostly used, there are cases where open wet digestion is needed. This study examined the optimum conditions for the minimum loss of trace elements during the wet digestion of a sample. The effect of acid composition and digestion time for about 21 ions was investigated. The trace element concentrations were determined by differential pulse polarography. For the digestion procedure, a HClO_4-HNO_3 mixture was used for the first step and, after its evaporation (60 min), HCl was added as the second step, since in some …
