In bit-patterned media (BPM), media noise is expected to be dominated by fabrication imperfections and to manifest as island size and spacing fluctuations. Previous work has shown that media noise has a significant impact on the error rates of BPM channels. Thus, having a realistic model of media noise is essential to…

Metal-supported solid oxide fuel cells are expected to offer several potential advantages over conventional anode (Ni-YSZ) supported cells, such as increased resistance against mechanical and thermal stresses and a reduction in materials cost. When Ni-YSZ based anodes are used in metal supported SOFC, electrode materi…

This paper presents the thermal analysis of a high-speed motor with soft magnetic composite (SMC). Due to the high operation frequency, the core loss is much greater than the other losses and, hence, is the major heat source in the high-speed motor. Therefore, it is of crucial importance to be able to calculate the co…

An analytical in-situ technique was utilized to evaluate reactant gas transport resistance (Rother) in catalyst layers (CLs). It was found that Rother was increased with the decrease of Pt-loadings of the CLs although their thickness was decreased. Effective Knudsen diffusion coefficient was calculated from the pore s…

A trace amount of SO2 in air is not a negligible factor on degradation of SOFC cathode. SO2 acts like Cr vapors which cause Cr-poisoning, and easily reacts with the strontium component in lanthanum-cobaltite based SOFC cathodes.
