Magnetism in Iron-Zirconium Systems

Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science, 1996
The discrete variational method is used to solve the Khon-Sham equation in the spin-polarized local density approximation for Fe-Zr and Fe-Zr-H clusters, representing iron-zirconium and hydrogenated iron-zirconium alloys.

BMOA Characterization with Families of Cauchy Transforms

Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science, 1999
In this paper we prove a number of results on Cauchy transforms of generalized type given by Borel measures supported on the class of analytic functions mapping the unit disc into the unit desk.

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

An investigation into the Traditional Method of Production of Omani Sarooj

Sultan Qaboos University Journal for Science, 1999
In the past, sarooj had been used as the basic cementing material with which the A flaj system (the irrigation system used in Oman) was built. Worldwide, materials like sarooj existed and were known for their good impermeability and long durability.
