This paper presents a new method for the prediction of iron losses in laminated magnetic cores. The method is based on the evaluation of the magnetization curves and loop shapes by which the iron losses, including hysteresis, excess, and classical eddy-current losses, are calculated from the loop area. The purpose of…

We present a semi-analytical model incorporating the effects of edge bond relaxation, the third nearest neighbor interactions, and edge scattering in graphene nanoribbon field-effect transistors (GNRFETs) with armchair-edge GNR (AGNR) channels. Unlike carbon nanotubes (CNTs) which do not have edges, the existence of e…

Ordered arrays of Si nanorods and nanospirals have been produced by ion beam sputter glancing angle deposition of Si on rotating substrates. The substrates were prepatterned with honeycomb and hexagonal-closed-packed arranged Au dots obtained by nanosphere lithography. The effects of template type, substrate rotationa…

Abstract In this paper, the crystallization of PLA in PLA/thermoplastic starch (TPS) blends was investigated. The TPS was used as the minor component at a concentration varying between 0 and 42 %. The effect of interfacial area was studied by compatibilizing the blend using maleic anhydride grafted PLA. To further enh…

Renal toxicity of iodinated radiocontrast media (contrastinduced nephropathy; CIN) is a major cause of acute renal failure in hospitalised patients. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is applied as an alternative technique but the use of gadolinium (Gd) containing contrast media carries the risk of nephrogenic systemic…

Cutting leads to a certain local magnetic material degradation of the electrical steel sheet. Moreover, the material properties near the cutting edge contribute significantly to the global performance. This material degradation mostly occurs in the vicinity of critical parts of electromagnetic devices, such as stator…

Large samples of dense polymer‐derived ceramics in an Si–O–C system were prepared without using any filler particles or catalysts. For this purpose a commercial polymethylsilsesquioxane powder was first pyrolyzed at 900°C and then rapidly hot‐pressed at temperatures between 1400° and 1600°C. Density, hardness, and fle…

Electronic structures of two-dimensional (2D) hexagonal boron nitride (h-BN) with different planar strain distributions have been studied using the first principles methods. We found that the 2D h-BN without strain has a large direct bandgap and its bandgap structure strongly depends on the strength and direction of t…
