Improvement of biological properties by modifying the composition and morphology of the surface layer is one of the main goals of using plasma electrolytic oxidation (PEO) for coating titanium implants. The purpose of this research is formation of biocompatible coating containing calcium, phosphorus and silicon on titanium by two-step PEO method in DC, constant voltage mode. In addition to good corrosion properties of the resultant coatings in simulated body environment (SBF), Having good adhesion due to the use of electrolytes with useful elements for biological function in both step of coating process rather than acidic electrolytes which are incompatible with the body environment, this... 

Futures exchanges require a margin requirement that ensures their competitiveness and protects against default risk. The purpose of a margin requirement is to protect a clearinghouse from members’ defaults resulting from big losses due to adverse movement of futures prices. Extreme movements are central to the margin setting problem, because only a large price variation may cause brokers to incur losses. So in this study according to recent default in gold futures in Iran Mercantile Exchange we apply extreme value theory for computing unconditional and conditional optimal margin levels based on Block-Maxima and Peak over threshold approaches.The results show that at very high confidence... 

In this study, by performing a series of experiments, the effect of the presence of cylinders on the formation of vortices and the interaction of cylinders on each other and, finally, transverse propagation in a steady flow are investigated. The cylinder cylinders that are in the direction of the motion of the water, have a significant effect on the hydrodynamic aspects and propagation in these streams. In the pattern of flow around cylindrical cylinders, with increasing Reynolds number, the vortex behind the stem begins to oscillate and when they reach, vortices flow into the stream. The flow velocity field, the formation and vortex fluctuation, affects the process of particle propagation...
