We present an analytical formulation that shows the negative refraction of propagating waves and the growth of evanescent waves within a negative refractive index (NRI) lens made of a periodically L, C loaded transmission-line (TL) network, referred to as the dual-TL structure. A transformation known as the "array sca…

Silica-supported silver nanocomposites were synthesized by rf sputtering of Ag from Ar plasmas. Depositions were performed on amorphous silica substrates at temperatures as low as 60 °C. As a general rule, a careful choice of the synthesis conditions allowed the obtainment of Ag/SiO2 nanosystems with well-tailored che…

Airdecking is used in mining for two quite different applications. One is to enhance the fragmentation by amplifying the induced fracturing and the second is for pre-split blasting in which the borehole fracturing is reduced. This paper deals with the first of these effects. A forth coming paper will describe pre-spli…

The thermal conductivity of polycrystalline Al‐doped ZnO was controlled through the fabrication of nanostructured polycrystalline materials, by hot‐pressing nanosized Zn 1– x Al x O ( x = 0.01, 0.02) particles, which were synthesized by a coprecipitation and spray‐drying method. This process resulted in an improved th…

α(6 H )‐ and β(3 C )‐SiC powders were sintered with the addition of AlB 2 and carbon. α‐SiC powder could be densified to ∼98% of the theoretical density over a wide range of temperatures from 1900° to 2150°C and with the additives of 0.67–2.7 mass% of AlB 2 and 2.0 mass% of carbon. Sintering of the β‐SiC powder requir…

This paper reports the development of a new particle model to simulate fabric mechan ical behavior. A particle model of square meshes, which is close to the orthotropic structure of a woven fabric, is used to represent the fabric. In addition to the separation, bending, and shearing springs, a twist spring is introduc…

Twenty-three of 86 strains of lactic acid bacteria transformed linoleic acid into hydroxy FA. Two distinct conversion pathways were in operation. Two strains of Lactobacillus acidophilus and a strain of Pediococcus pentosaceus produced 13(S)-hydroxy-9-octadecenoic acid 113(S)-OH 18:11 and 10,13dihydroxyoctadecanoic ac…

A pH-responsive polymer Eudragit S-100 has been found to assist in correct folding of alpha-chymotrypsin denatured with 8 M urea and 100 mM dithiothreitol at pH 8.2. The complete activity could be regained within 10 min during refolding. Both native and refolded enzymes showed emission of intrinsic fluorescence with l…
