Let Fn be the nth Fibonacci number. The order of appearance z(n) of a natural number n is defined as the smallest natural number k such that n divides Fk. In 1975, J. Sallé proved that z(n) ≤ 2n, for all positive integers n. In this paper, we shall provide sharper upper bounds for z(n) which are substantially smaller…

Abstract The grain size of coated cemented carbide tools may significantly affect the tool life by influencing either the coating adhesion to the substrate or the coating growth during deposition. In the present study three variously grained cemented carbides were coated with two different PVD films. Various pre‐ and…

A study of the characteristics of ferromagnetic signatures obtained by magnetoelectric (ME) laminate sensors has been performed. Anderson functions were used to analyze the signatures, which were found to be dependent on several parameters. An array imager was then developed using multiple ME sensors, which demonstrat…

Aim of this study was to combine the well-known biocompatibility and ostoeconductivity of thin calcium phosphate coatings on titanium with proangiogenic signals from codeposited copper species. Copper species could be integrated in mineral layers based on hydroxyapatite by means of electrochemically assisted depositio…

The variable output of renewables such as wind and solar causes fluctuations of power flow that can adversely affect power system operation, especially at high levels of penetration. The coordination of multiple energy storage solutions can mitigate integration challenges by providing a buffer from variable renewables…

Exchange coupling between two magnetic layers through an interlayer is of broad interest for numerous recent applications of nano-magnetic systems. In this letter, we study ferromagnetic exchange coupling through amorphous paramagnetic Fe-Ta alloys. We show that the exchange coupling depends exponentially on spacer th…

The electrical properties of the structure of GaN grown on an Si (111) substrate with low-temperature (LT) AlN interlayers by metal—organic chemical-vapour deposition are investigated. An abnormal P-type conduction is observed in our GaN-on-Si structure by Hall effect measurement, which is mainly due to the Al atom di…

Nickel–phosphorus carbon nanotube (CNT) composite coatings were prepared via brush electroplating. The CNTs were added in amounts of 0, 0·5, 1·0 and 2·0 g L−1. Half samples of these coatings were heated at 400°C for 1 h to obtain crystalline Ni–P CNT composite coatings. The hardness and internal stress of two kinds of…

REX-10 is a fully-passive small modular reactor in which the coolant flow is driven by natural circulation, the RCS is pressurized by a steam-gas pressurizer, and the decay heat is removed by the PRHRS. To confirm design decisions and analyze the transient responses of an integral PWR such as REX-10, a thermal-hydraul…
