Abstract Palaeozoic to early Mesozoic rocks of both autochthonous and allochthonous units of the Eastern Tauride Belt have different textural and mineralogical features related to their varying deposition regimes and thermal histories. The Devonian and Carboniferous formations in the allocthonous units have anchizonal…

Understanding how a gas is able to strongly insulate electric devices is certainly of great importance to the electrical engineering community. More precisely, modeling how a dielectric gas stops an electric current requires to understand what makes a gas a good dielectric, or in other words, what makes a gas presenti…

A digital image processing technique using the Fourier transformation in the spatial domain and the Wiener filter has been developed. This method is applied to the measurement of the accumulated charge on the opposite sides of a planar insulator using an electrostatic probe. In the spatial frequency domain, the relati…

The need to deliver fast-in-market and right-first-time design for ultra-low-emission vehicles at a reasonable cost is driving the automotive industries to invest significant manpower in computer-aided design and optimization of exhaust after-treatment systems. To serve the above goals, an already developed engineerin…

Broccoli is a vegetable of important economic value as well as a source of vitamin C and anticarcinogenic property substances. Although it can be minimally processed, this vegetable presents fast senescence, characterized by yellowing, loss of turgescence, development of off-odors, increase in enzymatic activity and r…

Abstract The transformation of a powder diffraction profile into a set of correlated integrated intensities allows crystallographic calculations to be performed without modelling raw diffractometer counts. By carrying out this transformation it is possible to preserve the information about peak overlap without needing…

Abstract Moisture and temperature effects were investigated on silica/(triethoxysilylpropyl) disulfide (TESPD)/carbon black (CB)/S‐SBR compounds with respect to processability, vulcanization characteristics, physical properties, and alcohol residues. The moisture‐treated compounds exhibited lower rates of viscous heat…

The thermal degradation of wood treated with basic nitrogen compounds and phosphoric acid was studied in air and nitrogen by differential thermal analysis and thermogravimetry from ambient temperature to 650°C. From the resulting data, kinetic parameters for different stages of thermal degradation were obtained follow…

Random parallel nanostructures (ridges and channels) were created by scratching gold thin films deposited on glass slides. Atomic force microscope (AFM) images showed that the width of the substructures within the scratches were of the order of a few hundred nanometers. These nanometric gold features can then support…

Abstract Fe-rich smectites from lateritic weathering profiles have previously been studied by XRD, ICP-AES, SEM-EDX and TEM-EDX analyses (Gaudin et al ., 2004). These smectites exhibit intermediate chemistries between five end-members: Al-Fe beidellites, Al-Fe montmorillonites and Mg+Ni-saponite. The spectroscopic stu…
