Vacuum structure and PT -symmetry breaking of the non-Hermetian (iϕ3) theory
( American Physical Society , 2017 , Article)In this work, we study the PT -symmetric (iϕ3) theory using the effective action formalism. To test the accuracy of the used technique, we apply it first to the PT -symmetric (−ϕ4) theory, where we reproduce the same results ... -
VALID-2: A practical modeling, simulation and verification software for distributed systems
( IEEE , 2004 , Conference Paper)Distributed systems verification is one of the main issues in software engineering. It is considered as the major field of the formal specification techniques. However, many difficulties remain. In fact, the principal ... -
Validated finite element models of premolars: A scoping review
( MDPI AG , 2020 , Article)Finite element (FE) models are widely used to investigate the biomechanics of reconstructed premolars. However, parameter identification is a complex step because experimental validation cannot always be conducted. The aim ... -
A Validated Reverse-Phase High Performance Liquid Chromatography (RP-HPLC) Method for the Quantification of Gamma-Tocotrienol in Tocotrienol Rich Fractions of Crude Palm Oil
( Bentham , 2021 , Article)Background: Palm oil and its constituents have wide applications in food, cosmet-ics and pharmaceutical industries. The tocotrienol-rich fractions of crude palm oil have drawn greater research interest in recent years due ... -
