The solidification rate during the casting of high-chromium (high-Cr) cast iron determines the size and distribution of carbides in this alloy, which, in turn, influence its mechanical properties. The effects of middle-chilling processes during the casting on the microstructures of directionally solidified high-chromi…
We use the lubrication approximation to analyze three closely related problems involving a thin rivulet or ridge (i.e., a two-dimensional droplet) of fluid subject to a prescribed uniform transverse shear stress at its free surface due to an external airflow, namely a rivulet draining under gravity down a vertical sub…
The effects of magnesium on the growth and proliferation of human embryonic stem cells (hESCs) was explored to advance magnesium as an implant biomaterial. When magnesium ions from magnesium salt were added to the culture media at 10, 100, 250, 500, 750, and 1000 ppm (0.4, 4, 10, 20, 30, 40 mM) the rate of increase in…
The pulse spin-locking sequence is a common excitation sequence for magnetic resonance and nuclear quadrupole resonance signals, with the resulting measurement data being well modeled as a train of exponentially damped sinusoidals. In this paper, we derive an ESPRIT-based estimator for such signals, together with the…
We investigated salinity-induced developmental plasticity and difference in the ‘reaction norm’ of clonal cultures (genotype–environment [G × E] interaction) of Cyclotella meneghiniana, isolated from different locations, and their F1 offspring. Genetic distances between strains and the phylogenetic position of each st…
Nanodiamond (ND) powder was fluorinated through direct interaction of elemental fluorine with diamond surfaces and then aminated by chemical substitution reactions using the fluorinated-ND as an intermediate. The effects of the surface terminations on electrochemical properties of ND electrodes were investigated in aq…
In this study we report an experimental approach capable of tuning dipolar interactions in hybrid magnetic nanofilms produced via layer-by-layer assembly of positively-charged maghemite nanoparticles and sodium sulfonated polystyrene onto glass and silicon substrates. Morphological and magnetic properties of the as pr…
BACKGROUND: A lack of vaccine and rampant drug resistance demands new anti-malarials. METHODS: In vitro blood stage anti-plasmodial properties of several de novo-designed, chemically synthesized, cationic, amphipathic, helical, antibiotic peptides were examined against Plasmodium falciparum using SYBR Green assay. Mec…
The features of magnetization of rare-earth multiferroic PrFe 3 (BO 3 ) 4 with the singlet ground state have been investigated theoretically. The magnetic anisotropy of the crystal has been studied. The temperature dependences of anisotropy constants have been calculated. The phase H - T diagram has been constructed.…
Tunable, nonlinear and active metamaterials are discussed, as a basis of optical instrumentation and signal processing such as filters, birefringent devices, lenses etc. The new method for modeling nonlinear field and energy concentrators is reported, which includes the combination of the new version of complex geomet…
Abstract The complete wetting of rough surfaces is only poorly understood, since the underlying phenomena can neither be described by the Cassie‐Baxter nor the Wenzel equation. An experimental accessiblility by the sessile drop method is also very limited. The term “superhydrophilicity” was an attempt to understand th…
Graphite nanosheets (GNS) were prepared by surfactant assisted ultrasonication from expanded graphite (EG) and followed by coating onto vinylon fabrics with water-borne polyurethane (WPU). The morphology of GNS and GNS/polyurethane (PU) coatings was characterized by field emission scanning electron microscope (FESEM),…
The effect of a permanent magnetic field on the intercalation process and magnetic properties of GaSe single crystals and their Co 0.15 GaSe intercalants are investigated. It is shown that cobalt intercalation in gallium monoselenide exerts no effect on the parameters of the GaSe crystal lattice. In Co 0.15 GaSe inter…
A novel and facile method with low cost has been developed to fabricate Fe3O4 nanoparticles (NPs) with tunable and uniform sizes by the thermal decomposition of iron oleate complex. The synthesis of iron oleate complex was carried out using a reaction between oleic acid and FeCl3 x 6H2O at low temperature. The decompo…
This article reports on fiber dispersion behavior in water with reference to wet-lay nonwoven technology. The effects of fiber material characteristics and dispersion process conditions on the quality of the nonwoven webs were examined. The webs were characterized for their area-based uniformity by means of an imaging…
Abstract silver‐epoxy nanocomposite films based on diepoxide of Mn = 450, silver tetradecanoate and triethylamine were synthesized by in situ method. The mean diameter of AgNPs in nanocomposite films as defined by SEM technique has been found within the range of 15–20 nm. Ag NPs narrow size distribution was found inde…
The electronic structure of disordered nonstoichiometric titanium monoxide TiO y depending on the oxygen content has been studied by the supercell method in the DFT-GGA approximation with the use of pseudo-potentials. An increase in the oxygen content in TiO y leads to a decrease in the electron density of states near…
The domain structures have been found to be different in the Sm(CobalFe0.1CuxZr0.033)6.9 magnets (x = 0.07, 0.10, 0.13) with the abnormal and normal temperature dependence of coercivity by quenching at 400 °C and 600 °C, respectively. In the magnets with abnormal temperature dependence of coercivity, the domain struct…
The aim of this study was to explore whether single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) can be used as artery tissue-engineering materials by promoting vascular adventitial fibroblasts (VAFs) to transform into myofibroblasts (MFs) and to find the signal pathway involved in this process. VAFs were primary cultured and incub…
Microalloyed steels have been widely used in many applications, particularly in car bodies and other engineering parts. This is because these steels are characterized by their high strength and high ductility. The combination of strength and ductility for these steels are usually resulting from the very fine grained m…
