Distribution of uranium, thorium, and isotopic composition of uranium in soil samples of south Serbia: Evidence of depleted uranium [PDF]

Nuclear Technology and Radiation Protection, 2004
Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry and thermal ionization mass spectrom - etry were used to measure concentration of uranium and thorium as well as isotopic composition of uranium respectively in soil samples collected around south Serbia.

Ionization constants of a soil fulvic acid [PDF]

Analusis, 1999
In the study of acid-base reactions the non-electrostatic models do not consider the charge over the fulvic acid (FA) molecule. In the present work we used the discrete site model which considers the acidic groups as independent sites without interactions. The effect of the electric charge is assumed negligible or constant.

Grounding System Modeling and Evaluation Using Integrated Circuit Based Fast Relaxed Vector Fitting Approach, Considering Soil Ionization

Applied Sciences, 2020
Since high voltage transmission line towers or wind turbines structures are installed in high-altitude areas, it is essential to achieve a high overvoltage protection system against direct and indirect lightning strikes collisions.

Validity of Improved MTL for Effective Length of Counterpoise Wires under Low and High-Valued Lightning Currents

Advanced Electromagnetics, 2020
In this paper, an efficient modeling approach called improved MTL is used to predict effective length of counterpoise wires considering both ionization and dispersion of soils. This paper consists of two parts.

Soil concentrations of Polychlorinated Biphenyl in a typical Nigerian University environment and its risk assessment

Case Studies in Chemical and Environmental Engineering, 2023
In this study, concentration of Polychlorinated Biphenyl (PCBs) around a university environment was investigated. The study further assessed the risk assessment associated with human contact with the soil using health indexes such as Hazard Quotient (HQ)

Evaluating the High Frequency Behavior of the Modified Grounding Scheme in Wind Farms

Applied Sciences, 2017
Wind generators are exposed to numerous destructive forces such as lightning and are therefore vulnerable to these phenomena. To evaluate the transient behavior of a wind power plant during direct and indirect strikes, modeling of all relevant components

Atypical mycobacterial cutaneous infection caused by mycobacterium abscessus complex: An unusual presentation masquerading actinomycosis

Clinical Dermatology Review, 2022
Atypical mycobacterial infections are caused by mycobacteria other than those from the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex and Mycobacterium leprae. They are ubiquitous, aerobic, nonmotile, and acid-fast bacilli seen in soil and water. Here, we report the
