David Estrada knows firsthand how a good mentoring experience can change a student’s life. Estrada, the first in his family to attend college, initially foundered, so he left school and joined the Navy, where he developed an interest in engineering. After his service, Estrada went back to school, this time at Boise St…

The electronic structure and phase stability of paramagnetic FeSe is computed by using a combination of ab initio methods for calculating band structure and dynamical mean-field theory. Our results reveal a topological change (Lifshitz transition) of the Fermi surface upon a moderate expansion of the lattice. The Lifs…

In this paper, we derive the sharp interface model of the nematic-isotropic phase transition from the Landau-de Gennes theory by using the matched asymptotic expansion method. The model includes the evolution equation of the velocity and director field of the liquid crystal, the sharp interface and Young-Laplace jump…

The Polyketide Carolacton is one of the secondary metabolites of the myxobacterium Sorangium cellulosum. It has been proven by Wagner-Döbler et al. that carolacton have high activity against biofilms of Streptococcus mutans the main cause of dental plaque. Therefore the total synthesis and hypothesis driven chemical m…

Numerous issues such as price uncertainty, manufacturing costs, environmental disposal, and geo-political issues affect the petroleum-based polymer industry. As an alternative, interest in the development of bio-degradable non-petroleum-based polymers has risen steadily since the 1980s. However, the price of tradition…

Vegetable oil is a convenient material for the production of agricultural products. Unfortunately, it does have drawbacks for some applications, an example being insufficient oxidative stability. Using chemistry, these problems can be solved. For example the epoxidized product formed from methyl oleate, oxidizes at a…

Seed oils chemically modified via acylation of their epoxidized and polyhydroxylated derivatives, were investigated for their potential as candidates for lubrication. The native oil was preliminarily epoxidized and ring opened in a one-pot reaction using formic acid/H2O2 followed by aqueous HCl treatment to give the p…

用超声溶剂热法制备了磁性纳米ZnxCo1-xFe2O4空心微球,采用X射线衍射仪(XRD)和透射电子显微镜(TEM)对其结构和形貌进行了表征。结果表明,所制备的ZnxCo1-xFe2O4空心微球均为标准的立方结构,说明锌的掺杂并不影响产物的晶型,但对产物的粒径影响较大。所制备的CoFe2O4空心微球的平均粒径为50 nm左右,但Zn0.5Co0.5Fe2O4空心微球的平均粒径为200 nm左右;用振动样品磁强计(VSM)以及网络矢量分析仪测试了微球的磁性能和吸波性能,结果显示,微球的饱和磁化强度随锌含量的增加先略微增大后减小,而矫顽力随锌含量的增加单调递减。当x=0.3时微球的磁性和吸波性能都为最佳。

We investigate experimentally the mechanical response to shear of a monolayer of bidisperse frictional grains across the jamming transition. We inflate an intruder inside the packing and use photoelasticity and tracking techniques to measure the induced shear strain and stresses at the grain scale. We quantify experim…
