The Co (II), Ni (II) ,Cu(II), Zn(II) ,Cd(II) and Hg(II) complexes of mixed of amino acid (L-Alanine ) and Trimethoprim antibiotic were synthesized. The complexes were characterized using melting point, conductivity measurement and determination the percentage of the metal in the complexes by flame (AAS). Magnetic susceptibility, Spectroscopic Method [FT-IR and UV-Vis]. The general formula have been given for the prepared mixed ligand complexes [M(Ala)2(TMP)(H2O)] where L- alanine (abbreviated as (Ala ) = (C5H9NO2) deprotonated primary ligand, L- Alanine ion .= (C5H8NO2-) Trimethoprim (abbreviated as (TMP ) = C10H11N3O3S M(II) = Co (II),Ni(II) ,Cu(II), Zn(II) ,Cd(II) and Hg(II). The results showed that the deprotonated L- Alanine by KOH (Ala- K+) act as uni nagative bi dentate ligand , was coordinated to the metal ions through the oxygen of the carboxylic group (-COO-), and the nitrogen of the amine group (-NH2) while Trimethoprim antibiotic act as mono dentate ligand , was coordinated to the metal ions through the nitrogen of the pyrimidine group.

A Numerical Solution Algorithm for a Heat and Mass Transfer Model of a Desalination System Based on Packed-Bed Humidification and Bubble Column Dehumidification
The humidification-dehumidification (HDH) desalination system can be advantageous in small-scale, off-grid applications. The main drawback of this technology has been its low energy efficiency, which results in high water production costs. Previous studies have approached this issue through thermodynamic balancing of the system; however, most theoretical work on the balancing of HDH has followed a fixed-effectiveness approach that does not explicitly consider transport processes in the components. Fixing the effectiveness of the heat and mass exchangers allows them to be modeled without explicitly sizing the components and gives insight on how the cycle design can be improved. However, linking the findings of fixed-effectiveness models to actual systems can be challenging, as the performance of the components depends mainly on the available surface areas and the flow rates of the air and water streams. In this study, we present a robust numerical solution algorithm for a heat and mass tranfer model of a complete humidification-dehumidification system consisting of a packed-bed humidifier and a multi-tray bubble column dehumidifier. We look at the effect of varying the water-to-air mass flow rate ratio on the energy efficiency of the system, and we compare the results to those reached following a fixed-effectiveness approach. In addition, we study the effect of the top and bottom temperatures on the performance of the system. We recommended the implementation a control system that varies the mass flow rate ratio in order to keep the system balanced in off-design conditions, especially with varying top temperature.Center for Clean Water and Clean Energy at MIT and KFUPM (Project R4-CW-08
An experimental study of the dual-fuel performance of a small compression ignition diesel engine operating with three gaseous fuels
A dual-fuel engine is a compression ignition (CI) engine where the primary gaseous fuel source is premixed with air as it enters the combustion chamber. This homogenous mixture is ignited by a small quantity of diesel, the ‘pilot’, that is injected towards the end of the compression stroke. In the present study, a direct-injection CI engine, was fuelled with three different gaseous fuels: methane, propane, and butane. The engine performance at various gaseous concentrations was recorded at 1500 r/min and quarter, half, and three-quarters relative to full a load of 18.7 kW. In order to investigate the combustion performance, a novel three-zone heat release rate analysis was applied to the data. The resulting heat release rate data are used to aid understanding of the performance characteristics of the engine in dual-fuel mode.
Data are presented for the heat release rates, effects of engine load and speed, brake specific energy consumption of the engine, and combustion phasing of the three different primary gaseous fuels.
Methane permitted the maximum energy substitution, relative to diesel, and yielded the most significant reductions in CO2. However, propane also had significant reductions in CO2 but had an increased diffusional combustion stage which may lend itself to the modern high-speed direct-injection engine
The effect of queue size on the throughput, in group failure mode, for the loaded transport channel
The external data flow decreases the throughput of the transport connection. The indicator of this external load is the queue size in front of the protocol data. In this article, using a mathematical model in analytical and numerical forms, the relation between the throughput of the channel and the protocol parameters are presented including the queue size parameter. In this work the effect of the queue size on time-out duration has been shown, which is one of the important parameters and it's studied weakly in researches. Also, the relation between round-trip delay, the reliability of the transmission of the information segments with queue size are also shown

A Concise Introduction to Perturbation Theory in Cosmology
We give a concise, self-contained introduction to perturbation theory in
cosmology at linear and second order, striking a balance between mathematical
rigour and usability. In particular we discuss gauge issues and the active and
passive approach to calculating gauge transformations. We also construct
gauge-invariant variables, including the second order tensor perturbation on
uniform curvature hypersurfaces.Comment: revtex4, 16 pages, 3 figures; v2: minor changes, typos corrected,

UNDERSTANDING THE EFFECTS OF INTERPERSONAL COMMUNICATION AND TASK DESIGN ON JOB PERFORMANCE AMONG EMPLOYEES IN THE MANUFACTURING COMPANY
on job performance among employees from the manufacturing industry.
Methodology: The data is analyzed through a survey (questionnaire) from 152 employees in one of the manufacturing companies in Penang, Malaysia. Hypotheses for all direct effects between the predictors (eg. interpersonal communication and task design) and criterion (job performance) are tested using regression analysis.
Result: Results presented that employees in this company have a high level of job performance (µ = 3.70); interpersonal communication (µ =3.64) and task design (µ =3.66). Also, positive correlations are found between employees’ performance and interpersonal communication (r=.53, p=.00) and task design (r=.54, p=.00).
Implications: Thus, this research provided a fruitful knowledge regarding the level of employees’ performance as well as their internal communication and task design; among employees in one of the manufacturing company in Malaysia
Weighing the Milky Way
We describe an experiment to measure the mass of the Milky Way galaxy. The
experiment is based on calculated light travel times along orthogonal
directions in the Schwarzschild metric of the Galactic center. We show that the
difference is proportional to the Galactic mass. We apply the result to light
travel times in a 10cm Michelson type interferometer located on Earth. The mass
of the Galactic center is shown to contribute 10^-6 to the flat space component
of the metric. An experiment is proposed to measure the effect.Comment: 10 pages, 1 figur
