The elastic constants of particulate composites are evaluated employing a theoretical cube-within-cube formation. Two new models of four and five components, respectively, formed by geometrical combination of three-component models existing in the literature, are used as Representative Volume Elements. Using the gover…

The carbonatation of La 2 O 3 oxide and the decarbonatation of lanthanum carbonate phase La 2 O 2 CO 3 are investigated using thermal and thermogravimetry analyses under CO 2 gas flow. The initial phase La 2 O 3 is first elaborated from pyrolysis of a LaOHCO 3 precursor. Then, thermal and thermogravimetry analyses are…

There exists nonhomogeneous structure in mechanosynthesized nanoparticles consisting of an ordered core surrounded by the shell. The shell may be structurally and magnetically disordered, or it may be ordered. These nanoparticles are found to be roughly spherical. We formulate the macroscopic model for the description…

Fuel processors are required to convert sulfur-laden logistic fuels (jet fuels, diesel, and coal) into fuel cell quality hydrogen-rich reformate with little or no sulfur for extended periods. Sulfur poisons and deactivates the reforming catalyst, therefore, sulfur-tolerant catalysts ought to be developed. In this pape…
