Cultured cells, both rat calvaria osteoblasts (isolated and characterized according
to established methods [4] at population number 3) and rat-skin fibroblasts (purchased from, and
characterized by, the American Type Culture Collection; population number 14-16), in Dulbecco's
modified Eagle's medium (containing 10% FBS) were seeded (3500 cell/cm2) per substrate and
allowed to adhere in a 37ºC humidified, 5% CO2/95% air environment for 4 hours.
The representative scanning electron micrographs of Fig.1 illustrate the materials revealing two distinct morphologies: spherical particles (with diameters in the range or 60-150 nm) on the non-sintered (Fig.1a), and agglomerates that formed both porous (Fig.1b) and non-porous arrangements on the sintered substrates with grain size with diameter in the range 400-600 nm.

Quartz sand with a maximum grain size of 2.5 mm was used as aggregate.
It is obvious that the microstructure of the sample with 1% PEG is very similar to the sample with 10% PEG with approximately the same number of microcracks.
Microstructure alone provides little indication of the influence of various polymer dosages on the mechanical properties of AAS mortars but the number of microcracks was not reduced for any of applied admixtures.
Firstly, there were an increased number of calcite crystals in the AAS matrix.

For a number of practical applications, it is essential that carbon nanotubes have a low specific gravity.
To form a multilayer composite compound of the film - polymer, a medium-grained polyester polymer of the HB BODY PRO F 211 brand was used.
Clusters of carbon nanotubes have a low density and strength due to the fact that they contain a large number of pores.
In a number of cases, micro-cracks are visible.

It has low activity and fine grain so that it reduces the continuity of the inorganic polymer network structure which affects the strength of the specimens.
Considering the microscopic structural characteristics, ordinary concrete specimen contains a large number of capillary channels so that the structure is not density enough.

Thus, the standard form of PSO could be denoted as:

where is called inertia weighting factor and used to better control the scope of the search, R1 and R2 are two independent random numbers selected in each step according to a uniform distribution in a given interval [0,1] and C1 and C2 are two constants which are equal to 2 in this standard version.
The random number was multiplied by 2 to give it a mean of 1, so that particles would “overshoot” the target about half the time.
One approach to reduce the elapsed time is to make use of coarse-grained parallelization to evaluate the design points.
Furthermore, this part of the computational work is scalable, i.e. increasing the number of particles will cause the amount of evaluations to increase proportionally.

The excessive rare earth content could lead to a large number of rare earth atoms deposited on the surface to form a " active rare-earth atoms stacked layer", and there are a large number of boron atoms adsorbed around layer, so it increase the resistance of boron atoms to diffuse into the surface and decrease the numbers of boron atoms reaching the surface reduce [3].
The wear resistance of the surface of the sample with the boronizing optimization, quenching and tempering treatment is higher than the sample with ordinary boronizing, quenching and tempering treatment, this is because the rare earth increase the Fe2B phase nucleation rate, and refine Fe2B phase grain, and improved carbonitriding layer density, increase the thickness of layer, reduce the hole and porous with osteoporosis carbonitriding layer.

A number of groups have investigated the BaO-R2O3-TiO2 (where R means rare earth elements) system on the crystal structure and the microwave dielectric properties systematically.
Compared with BaLa4Ti4O15 which belonging to trigonal system [9] and has been studied widely even by templated grain growth (TGG) method[10], there is no report of NaO-R2O3-TiO2 system, to the best of our knowledge.
It possesses the following unit-cell lattice parameters: a=b=2.1616 nm and c=1.0536 nm, the number of molecule per crystal lattice: Z=12 and the theoretical density: ρ=5.23 g/cm3.
NET possesses the following unit-cell crystallographic lattice constants: a=b=1.9680 nm and c=1.1515 nm, the number of molecule per crystal lattice: Z=12 and its theoretical density: ρ=5.81 g/cm3.

Introduction
Although there are a large number of ABO3 simple perovskite, when one or more cations of the structure are replaced by other ones generates a group of compounds known as double perovskite, AA'BB'O3 or A2BB'O6.
This method allows to obtain material with high chemical and structural homogeneity, containing grains with controlled morphology and size, and high purity [6,7].
The synthesis performed with less air flow (3 L/min) and higher temperature (900 °C) showed a greater number of particles agglomerated and an increase in crystallite size to 14 nm.
All XRD diffraction patterns exhibited only a set of diffraction lines ascribed to SrTiO3 single phase powders, which were identified from the JCPDS card number 35-0734 with cubic symmetry and space group Pmm (221).
