A silica-supported cobalt catalyst was prepared by hydrogen dielectric-barrier discharge (H 2 -DBD) plasma. Compared to thermal hydrogen reduction, H 2 -DBD plasma treatment can not only fully decompose the cobalt precursor but also partially reduce the cobalt oxides at lower temperature and with less time. The effect…

Hercynite (FeAl2O4) with octahedral structure rarely exists in nature and can only be synthesized artificially. However, it is hard to synthesize high purity hercynite. To date, it is known that two main synthetic methods, sintering and electro-fusion processes, are available to synthesize hercynite. Specimens synthes…

Abstract To a mineralogist, minerals are defined primarily by their crystal structure and chemical composition. Many minerals of industrial importance retain this identity in their final application. For the producer and end user, the physical properties of these industrial mineral products such as size and shape dist…

Bird strike, also known as avian ingestion, is the collision between a bird and an aircraft. Bird strikes have always been a cause of worry in the aeronautical industry: Aircraft both old and new have suffered from bird strikes. Jet engine ingestion occurs when the bird hits the jet engine of an aircraft and gets suck…

In the design of high-performance massive multicore chips, power and temperature have become dominant constraints. Traditional multicore designs, based on the Network-on-Chip (NoC) paradigm, suffer from high latency and power dissipation as the system size scales up due to the inherent multi-hop nature of communicatio…

Non-Foster circuits can be used to provide broadband impedance matching for antennas and metamaterials. These circuits allow effective matching over a much wider bandwidth than is expected from traditional passive components. Therefore, this paper considers the design and test of a negative capacitor in a 0.5 micron C…
