The use of absorbable orthopedic implants has increased substantially during the last decade. Currently, most of them are fabricated from poly-L-lactide (PLLA), its co-polymers, or mixtures with other constituents. In vivo, PLLA persists for years after its surgical role has ended, which is confirmed by a long-term hi…
The split-winding arrangement requires special short-circuit design considerations. During short-circuit conditions, there is a considerable distortion of the leakage field, which in turn produces high axial short-circuit forces. This paper deals with the computation and analysis of electromagnetic forces in windings…
This paper reports on a new cross-equipment study on the charging phenomena of solid insulators, evaluating the influence of charging on high-voltage equipment such as gas insulated switchgear (GIS), oil-immersed transformers, gas-insulated transformers and high-voltage vacuum-insulated equipment. New parameters of no…
The composition dependent variation of domain configuration and size in Pb(Zr1−xTix)O3 (PZT) has been investigated in a detailed transmission electron microscopy study in the range of 0.40⩽x⩽0.55. Single phase composition, Pb(Zr0.45Ti0.55)O3 and Pb(Zr0.60Ti0.40)O3, the former belonging to the tetragonal, the latter to…
We investigate the optical properties of four different samples of ZnO nanocrystals, with a particle size average varying from 70 up to 380nm. The photoluminescence (PL) of all samples shows at low temperature an emission band around 3.31eV, which is several orders of magnitude stronger compared to the PL of bulk ZnO…
Acoustically driven bubbles can develop shape instabilities and, if forced sufficiently strongly, distort greatly and break up. Perturbation theory provides some insight as to how these nonspherical shape modes grow initially but loses validity for large deformations. To validate the perturbation theory, we use a nume…
Palladium nanoparticles with defined morphologies were synthesized using a seed-mediated approach in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB). This seeding technique, already applied to Ag and Au nanostructures, was successfully extended here to Pd, a noble metal with important applications in catalysis.…
Indium tin oxide (ITO) thin films have been grown onto soda-lime glass substrates by sputtering at room temperature with various oxygen to argon partial pressure ratios. After deposition, the samples have been annealed at temperatures ranging from 100to500°C in nitrogen or in air. The structure, optical, and electrica…
Single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) exhibit resonant absorption localized in specific spectral regions. To expand the light spectrum that can be utilized by SWCNTs, we have encapsulated squarylium dye into SWCNTs and clarified its microscopic structure and photosensitizing function. X-ray diffraction and polarizatio…
Ceramic materials have been extensively used in armor applications for both personnel and vehicle protection. As the types of threats have diversified recently, e.g., improvised explosive devices and explosively formed projectiles, a proper set of ceramic material selection criteria is needed to design and optimize co…
The influence of morphology on the optical properties of silver nanoparticles is studied. A general relationship between the surface plasmon resonances and the morphology of each nanoparticle is established. The optical response is investigated for cubes and decahedrons with different truncations. We found that polyhe…
For the first time, in this report the effect of second order perturbations on the Heisenberg Hamiltonian of thick ferromagnetic films up to N=10000 will be discussed in detail. Introducing the second order perturbation increases the energy of sc(001) and fcc(001) ferromagnetic thick films. The energy curve of the fcc…
New nonwovens applications in areas such as filtration require a media designed to particular pore size specifications in the 3 to 20 micron range. The purpose of this work was to develop a basis by which to design and construct a fabric with given pore size specifications. While doing so we have provided a validation…
We describe methodology of laser Doppler forced vibrology (LDFV) applied to texture assessment of soft agricultural products. The method is applied to a melon. The lowest frequency resonant peak (mode M0) is used for corrections of the whole amplitude frequency plot expressed in relation to the forcing deformation lev…
Cost-effective microporous films and composites can be made by using polyolefinic material and inorganic fillers. These microporous films and their composites can be designed and manufactured at high speed using commercial equipment for disposable hygiene articles, protective health care garments, building constructio…
Models of kinetic theory provide a coarse-grained description of molecular configurations wherein atomistic processes are ignored. The Fokker-Planck equation related to the kinetic theory descriptions must be solved for the distribution function in both physical and configuration spaces. When the model involves high d…
A specific twin channel slit die was used to measure in-line the viscous behaviour of an extruded wheat starch. This allows to put in evidence the influences of temperature, water content and specific mechanical energy (SME). The proposed rheological law permits to satisfactorily predict the viscosity of a wheat starc…
