Advancement in both the design and construction of high-speed ships necessitates the evaluation of cavitation erosion resistant materials. Given their weight advantages, aluminum and laminated composite materials are often chosen as construction materials for high-speed designs. Historically, neither of these material…

In this paper, a Si-doped single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) (7,7) and several perfect armchair SWCNTs are investigated using the classical molecular dynamics simulations method. The inter-atomic short-range interaction is represented by empirical Tersoff bond order potential. The computational results show that th…

This paper has highlighted a major problem with the traditional excitation characteristic (TEC) of nonlinear inductors, in that the TEC contains harmonic voltages and/or currents, and has been used the way as if it were made up of pure fundamental voltage and current. In comparison to the TEC, a new concept, namely th…

Electrochemical behavior of stainless steel in 0.5 M NaCl solutions is studied. It is shown that, for this steel, under a considerable cathodic polarization of electrode, the oxygen electroreduction proceeds via a four-electron mechanism. The corrosion current is estimated. From the impedance spectra, elements of an e…

In this paper, a single-layer guided-mode resonance (GMR) filter based on a free-standing silicon-nitride membrane suspended on a silicon substrate is achieved by using bulk-micromachining technology. Both of grating and waveguide structures without a lower-cladding layer, i.e., substrate, are fabricated simultaneousl…

A method to prepare titania-silica binary oxides is proposed in this work. In this route, inorganic precursors tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and titanium isopropoxide (TIP) were simultaneously or sequentially impregnated into a polypropylene (PP) matrix using supercritical carbon dioxide as a swelling agent and carr…

The decomposition temperature had little effect on the particle size with the addition of surface agent. It was just the crystallization that different from each other. With increasing the temperature, the peak width of XRD patterns sharpened, indicating that the crystallization of MoS 2 particles went better.

The product obtained by the intercalation of hexacyanoferrate(III) inside a Ni, Al hydrotalcite-like compound (Htlc) has been characterized using XRD, FT-IR, Raman, and XAS spectroscopy. The intercalation was carried out by anionic exchange of the originally existing chloride ions. The combined use of those techniques…

Abstract Stack tests were run at 850 °C for periods from 80 hours to 1,150 hours to develop contacting procedures and at the same time evaluate the performance of a 5 μm electroplated nickel coating on a ferritic Fe22Cr interconnect. The metallic nickel coating reacted relatively quickly during the initial heating to…

Artificial illumination can harm works of art by inducing the development of photosynthetic biofilms. With the aim of preventing biodeterioration or esthetic damage to such surfaces, we evaluated and compared the effects of illuminating biofilms formed by Gloeothece membranacea (cyanobacteria) and Chlorella sorokinian…

Despite the general acceptance that soils of the Pacific Northwest (United States) have a high retention capacity for phosphate (PO4−3), and perhaps even sulfate (SO4−2), few studies in the region have investigated the potential of physicochemical mechanisms to retain nitrate (NO3−). The specific objectives of this st…

Scalar diffraction theory is frequently considered inadequate for predicting diffraction efficiencies for grating applications where lambda/d>0.1. It has also been stated that scalar theory imposes energy upon the evanescent diffracted orders. These notions, as well as several other common misconceptions, are driven m…

All possible pseudotetrahedral, stable polyhalocubanes were prepared, and their structures were proven by NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. Parity violating energy differences (DeltaEpv) and vibrational frequency shifts were computed. The DeltaEpv values are predicted to be one to two orders of magnitude sma…
