Automotive bumper beam assembly plays very important role in absorbing impact. In this paper, the most important parameters of an automotive front bumper beam such as material, shape and impact condition are to be studied to improve the crashworthiness. The simulation of bumper beamis done under low-velocity impact as…
Solar cells generate green energy directly from sunlight. The energy conversion efficiency of solar cells depends strongly on materials used as absorbers and the cell architecture. Currently, the best solar cells convert sunlight energy to electricity with an efficiency of up to 46%. This thesis focuses on the develop…
Biofuels are considered to be an environmental friendly alternative to fossil fuels as they have the potential to reduce the global emissions of greenhouse gases. Studies have showed that an increased use of ethanol could alter the atmospheric chemical composition and enhance urban ozone concentrations resulting in hi…
Generation IV nuclear power technologies provide attractive solutions to the common issues related to conventional nuclear power plants currently in operation worldwide. Through a significant reduction of the long-term radiotoxicity of nuclear waste, a more efficient use of nuclear fuel resources, and implementation o…
First principles density functional calculations were carried out to study the electronic structure and thermoelectric properties of LnN (Ln = La and Lu) using the full potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method. The thermoelectric properties were calculated by solving the Boltzmann transport equation…
Correction for ‘Cationic surface functionalization of cellulose nanocrystals’ by Merima Hasani et al., Soft Matter, 2008, 4, 2238–2244.
Different machining processes were used in the single crystal SiC wafer machining. SEM was used to observe the surface morphology and a cross-sectional cleavages microscopy method was used for subsurface cracks detection. Surface and subsurface cracks characteristics of single crystal SiC wafer in abrasive machining w…
Correction for ‘Orbital entanglement and CASSCF analysis of the Ru–NO bond in a Ruthenium nitrosyl complex’ by Leon Freitag et al., Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. , 2015, DOI: 10.1039/c4cp05278a.

Many multiphase-flows are governed by capillarity and wettability such as spray painting and ink-jet printing applications, cooling devices of small scaled microchips and inside internal combustion engines referring to the fuel injection. The contact angle is a decisive parameter when such a system is analyzed. If the…
Films of polyvinylalcohol (PVA) – polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) blend doped with Cadmium Chloride (CdCl2) in the doping range 1 wt% to 40 wt% were prepared by solution casting technique. These films were characterized using optical/UV-Vis- NIR spectroscopy, Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and DC electrical measur…
In the present manuscript, MnxCo1-xFe2O4 (x=0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0) nanoparticles have been synthesized with co-precipitation method by annealing at 900 °C and studied the structural and magnetic properties. X ray diffraction pattern reveals the formation of single phase cubic spinel structure with the space…
Here, we report on the development and photoluminescence analysis of Zn2SiO4, Ce3+:Zn2SiO4 & Li+ + Ce3+: Zn2SiO4 novel powder phosphors prepared by a sol-gel technique. The total amount of Ce3+ ions was kept constant in this experiment at 0.05 mol% total doping. The excitation and emission spectra of undoped (Zn2SiO4)…
Raman and Infrared spectroscopies have been employed to investigate the 25Bi2O3-(75-x)B2O3-xBaO glasses in order to obtain information about the competitive role of Bi2O3 and B2O3 in the formation of glass network. FTIR and Raman spectra show that these glasses are made up of [BO3], [BO4], [BiO3] pyramidal and [BiO6]…
Shockwave lithotripsy is a noninvasive medical procedure wherein shockwaves are repeatedly focused at the location of kidney stones in order to pulverize them. Stone comminution is thought to be the product of two mechanisms: the propagation of stress waves within the stone and cavitation erosion. However, the latter…

Structural relaxation in inorganic glasses is a phenomenon of much study in the glass community. The processes that govern how a glass relaxes towards its thermodynamic quasi-equilibrium state are major factors in understanding glass behavior near the glass transition region, as characterized by the glass transition t…

Significance and Use 5.1 For advanced ceramics, Vickers indenters are used to create indentations whose surface-projected diagonals are measured with optical microscopes. The Vickers indenter creates a square impression from which two surface-projected d
The effective layout of pipelines for mass transportation of oil/gas is a major area of research in the present world. Due to fracture of pipelines, long-lasting and catastrophic hazards may be initiated. Hence, study of dynamic fracture of pipeline steel (PS) is a major research topic in pipeline industry. In many co…
