An effective method for the management of heat conduction can be achieved by coating a superior thermally-conductive layer on the glass surface. This layer, which works similarly to a double or triple-glazed window, can minimize heat diffusion through the glass [[r]

Driven by the versatility of conventional thick-film technology, various designs of thick-film piezoelectric actuators are possible. The simplest thick-film piezoelectric actuator design is a free-standing cantilever beam that can be realized as a bimorph or multimorph[r]
To investigate the relationship of the sputtering rate with the shape of nanostructures, the depositions of Ti films were carried out, with the discharge currents set to 0.15, 0.20, and 0.25 A, respectively, and other conditions consiste[r]
Nanocomposites of graphene oxide (GO) and tungsten oxide (WO3) nanobricks were synthesized by co-dispersing graphene oxide and tungsten oxide nanobricks in bi-distilled water with different weight ratios (0.1, 0.3 and 0.5 wt.% of graphene oxide). The ammonia gas sensing properties of nanocomposites[r]

The detection of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is essential in practical application in breath analysis. Thus, gas sensors based on metal oxide have been fabricated, but they lacked selectivity. One approach to resolve this task is to use an array of highly sensitive and selective sensors as an[r]
The presence of several vacancies in the system favors both a signi fi cant decrease of such inhomogeneity, e.g. for divacancy, formed by two nearest vacancies, and its enhancement. It should be noted, that in the case of a formation by some vacancy group <[r]
With the AgNWs content increase, from 0.2 wt.% GPA1 to 0.4 wt.% GPA2 and 0.6 wt.% GPA3, the sensitivity of the humidity sensing devices based on AgNWs-doped graphene quantum dot-PEDOT:PS[r]
The influence of turn number, track width, track thickness and spacing between coils on inductance was studied.. The balance bridge principle was used to measure inductance value less [r]
The influence of water potential and organic carbon on the sensitivity of soil to mechanical disturbance was showed. Their study showed that soils become more sensitive to mechanical damage when wetter and the most dramatic...
Graphene-based composites have received a great deal of attention in recent year because the presence of graphene can enhance the conductivity, strength of bulk materials and help create composites with superior qualities. Moreover, the incorporation of metal oxide nanoparticles such as Fe3O4 can im[r]
This paper reports the results on the predictions of behavior of AP-1000 nuclear reactor fuel rod under steady state operating condition by using FRAPCON-4.0 software.

The reduction of gate-oxide thickness plays an important role in maintaining low subthreshold swing whereas it shows a less role in suppressing off-state leakage in short-channel TFETs with bulk and thinbody structures. When scaling the gate-oxide thickness, the short-channel effect is suppressed mo[r]

Recent efforts in the field of mesoscale effects on the structure and properties of thin polymer films call to revival interest in conformational structure and defects of a polymer backbone which has a crucial influence on electronic properties of the material.
INTRODUCTION Physicochemical coagulation process is one of the most popular techniques to remove phosphorus in wastewater treatment processes where the activated sludge is used. Phosphorus is coagulated as aluminum phosphate or iron phosphate by adding PAC (polyaluminum chl[r]
