Changes in the rate of cement hydration affect not only the technological characteristics of concrete mixes, but also cause changes in the rate of concrete compressive strength formation.The paper examines the effect of micellar solutions, consisting of micelle-forming surfactants or a mixture of micelle-forming surfa…
In this study, we performed our calculations using the full-potential linearized-augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method as implemented in the WIEN2k code based on DFT. The generalized gradient functional with the Wu-Cohen (WC) parameterization was used to evaluate the structural, electronic, optical and thermoelectric…
The article presents an analysis of geometrically nonlinear contact tasks for the system of plates. The peculiarities of the presented tasks consist in research of a pressure-deformed state of two plates connected with a bolt fixture with a clearance and loaded with a uniformly distributed transverse force along the u…
In the present study, solution casting method was used for the preparation of nanocomposite films. Primarily, the surface of copper (II) oxide (CuO) nanoparticles was modified with biosafe molecules such as citric acid and ascorbic acid for better dispersion in the polymer matrix. Then novel nanocomposite films were f…
α-Mn2O3 microspheres with high phase purity, crystallinity, and surface area were synthesized by the thermal decomposition of precipitated MnCO3 microspheres without the use of any structure directing agents and tedious reaction conditions. The prepared Mn2O3 microspheres were characterized by Fourier transform infrar…
Long glass fiber (LGF)‐reinforced polypropylene (PP) composites were prepared using self‐designed impregnation device. Effects of impregnation time on mechanical properties, crystallization, dynamic mechanical properties, and morphology of PP/LGF composites were investigated. The experiment results demonstrate that th…
The results of investigation of nickel hypophosphite reduction reaction kinetics in the bulk solution depending on the pH, temperature, oxidant content, nature and concentration of the activator, the presence of water-soluble polymer - polyvinylpyrrolidone are presented.The main objective of the study was to investiga…
Obtaining a protein's 3D structure is crucial to the understanding of its functions and interactions with other proteins. It is critical to accelerate the protein crystallization process with improved accuracy for understanding cancer and designing drugs. Systematic high-throughput approaches in protein crystallizatio…
PbS nanoplatelets (NPLs) are proposed as robust materials for novel optoelectronic devices. Compared to quantum dot assemblies, ab initio simulations are employed to show that such pseudo-two-dimensional systems may provide stronger absorption and higher carrier mobility due to the distinct wave function distributions…
Tension-compression fatigue behavior of an oxide-oxide ceramic-matrix composite was investigated at 1200 °C in air and in steam. The composite is comprised of an alumina matrix reinforced with Nextel™720 alumina-mullite fibers woven in an eight harness satin weave (8HSW). The composite has no interface between the fib…
Using the time-dependent density functional theory, we perform quantum calculations of the electron dynamics in small charged metallic nanoparticles (clusters) of spherical geometry. We show that the excess charge is accumulated at the surface of the nanoparticle within a narrow layer given by the typical screening di…
We report that 1T-TiSe 2, an archetypical layered transition metal dichalcogenide, becomes superconducting when Ta is substituted for Ti but not when Nb is substituted for Ti. This is unexpected because Nb and Ta should be chemically equivalent electron donors. Superconductivity emerges near x = 0.02 for Ti 1– x Ta x…
Graphene hydrogels have been considered as ideal materials for high-performance supercapacitors. However, their low volumetric capacitance significantly limits its real application. In this study, we report an environment-friendly and scalable method to prepare high packing density, electrochemically reduced graphene…
The copper oxides are advanced materials due to their remarkable sensing, optical, electrical, thermal and magnetic performances. Nanostructuring and doping of copper oxides enhance further the possible features of these important and attractive materials for various applications. In this work, we report for the first…
Generating non-reciprocal radio frequency transduction plays important roles in a wide range of research and applications, and an aspiration is to integrate this functionality into micro-circuit without introducing magnetic field, which, however, remains challenging. By designing a 1D artificial lattice structure with…
EXAFS and confocal Raman microscopy have been used to study 50SnF2.(20-x)SnO.30P2O5.xEr2O3 (x=0, 0.1, 0.25) glasses. EXAFS data reveal an average coordination of Sn to O of 1.5 in both undoped glass and Er-doped glass samples. The first coordination sphere of Er in glasses doped with Er2O3 was found to have 9 F atom n…
In recent years, nanostructuring of dielectric and semiconducting crystals has enhanced controllability of their thermal conductivity. To carry out computational material search for nanostructured materials with desirable thermal conductivity, a key property is the thermal conductivity spectrum of the original single…
We consider the response of a multicomponent body to $n$ fields, such as electric fields, magnetic fields, temperature gradients, concentration gradients, etc., where each component, which is possibly anisotropic, may cross couple the various fields with different fluxes, such as electrical currents, electrical displa…
Kelvin's relations may be considered as cornerstones in the theory of thermoelectricity. Indeed, they gather together the three thermoelectric effects, associated respectively with Seebeck, Peltier and Thomson, to get a unique and consistent description of thermoelectric phenomena. However, their physical status in li…
Although many electrochemical properties of 2D materials depend sensitively on the nanosheet dimensions, there are no systematic, quantitative studies which analyze the effect of nanosheet size and thickness on electrochemical parameters. Here we use size-selected WS 2 nanosheets as a model system to determine the eff…
