State-of-the-art linepipe steels are microalloyed low-carbon steels that combine high strength and fracture toughness with good weldability. During welding of pipe sections the heat affected zone (HAZ) experiences rapid thermal cycles resulting in a graded microstructure that can be significantly different from that o…

Pipeline is the common mode for transporting oil, gas, and various petroleum products. Buried linepipe can be exposed to various external interferences and corrosive environment and as a result, damage in the form of dent or corrosion or crack or gouge or combination of any of these damages can form in the pipe wall.…

Abstract Photoinitiated polymerization in aerosols is employed for the preparation of spherical polymer particles via cationic polymerization. The UV irradiation of aerosol monomer droplets starts the cationic curing process without the employment of any solvent or additives such as stabilizers, resulting in highly pu…

We have examined the adsorption of the weakly bound species N2, O2, CO, and Kr on the (√37×√37)R25.3° water monolayer on Pt(111) using a combination of molecular beam dosing, infrared reflection absorption spectroscopy, and temperature programmed desorption. In contrast to multilayer crystalline ice, the adsorbate-fre…

Zinc oxide (ZnO) films are widely used as front transparent conductive oxide films in thin-film silicon solar cells. Double-textured B-doped zinc oxide (W-textured ZnO:B) substrates, which are formed by reactive ion etching (RIE) and metal-organic chemical vapor deposition, have a high haze ratio over a wide wavelengt…

Using metal plasmonic waveguides as transmission lines for optical signals and an electrical bias is shown to be feasible in Si-based devices with a separation gap formed between the waveguide and Au/Si Schottky-barrier diode (SBD). Optical signal transmission is confirmed by calculating the radiation pattern from the…

We report a more accurate method to determine the density of trap states in a polymer field-effect transistor. In the approach, we describe in this letter, we take into consideration the sub-threshold behavior in the calculation of the density of trap states. This is very important since the sub-threshold regime of op…

Abstract. Developed in the 1960s for use in high-performance ring-core fluxgate sensors, 6–81.3 Mo permalloy remains the state of the art for permalloy-cored fluxgate magnetometers. The magnetic properties of 6–81.3, namely magnetocrystalline and magnetoelastic anisotropies and saturation induction, are all optimum in…

PURPOSE: Volume selection in (1) H MR spectroscopic imaging (MRSI) of the prostate is commonly performed with low-bandwidth refocusing pulses. However, their large chemical shift displacement error (CSDE) causes lipid signal contamination in the spectral range of interest. Application of high-bandwidth adiabatic pulse…
