A persistent problem of surface mounted permanent magnet (SMPM) motors is the non-uniformity of the developed torque. Either the motor design or the motor control needs to be improved in order to minimize the periodic disturbances. This paper proposes a new control technique for reducing periodic disturbances in perma…

However, studies on the effect of nano-reinforcements in repeated impact scenarios are relatively limited. This work investigates the effect of resin nanoclay modification on the impact resistance of glass-fiber reinforced polymer (GFRP) composites subjected to repeated impacts. Three impact energy levels were used in…

We report the fabrication of a Si(111) crystalline thin film on graphene by the aluminum-induced crystallization (AIC) process. The AIC process of Si(111) on graphene is shown to be enhanced compared to that on an amorphous SiO2 substrate, resulting in a more homogeneous Si(111) thin film structure as revealed by X-ra…

The chemical fate of radical intermediates is relevant to understand the biological effects of radiation and to explain formation of DNA lesions. A direct approach to selectively generate the putative reactive intermediates is based on the irradiation of photolabile precursors. But, to date, radical formation and reac…

Abstract Because of increased activity in deepwater and high-pressure/high-temperature (HP/HT) environments, the safe operation of corrosion resistant alloys (CRAs) of different types is important. Reservoirs can be subjected to different flow impairment mechanisms that can require the use of acidizing fluids. Titaniu…

Abstract One of the issues in bulk c-GaN growth is the decrease in the diameter of crystals with an increase in thickness owing to the appearance of inclined and facets. In this study, we performed −c-GaN growth by oxide vapor phase epitaxy (OVPE). As a result, truncated-inverted-pyramidal crystals were successfully g…

Scrapie is a neurodegenerative prion disease of sheep, goats and mouflons, belonging to the group of transmissible spongiform encephalopathies (TSEs), which affects humans as well. Even though classical scrapie has been known for over 250 years, the 1985 BSE crisis related to the advent of new forms of the Creutzfeldt…
