Compression mouldings of commercial SMC were performed with an instrumented industrial press under various process conditions. Results underline the influence of process parameters such as the initial SMC temperature, the axial punch velocity and the geome ...
Partially oxidized fcc FePd and FePt nanoparticles with mean diameters of 5 and 3 nm, respectively, were synthesized by a reverse micelle polyol process. In situ measurements of magnetic and structural properties during annealing showed a large increase in ...
High solidification velocities, high temperature gradients and strong melt flow characterize the first moments of solidification in a continuous caster. The beginning of shell growth in the meniscus area is determined by the local heat flow, the strength o ...
The design of a radiation driven capsule suitable for use in a heavy ion beam driven inertial confinement fusion reactor system is discussed. Numerical simulations of compression, ignition and burn of the capsule are presented. These simulations have been ...
We address the task of rendering by ray tracing the isosurface of a high-quality continuous model of volumetric discrete and regular data. Based on first principles, we identify the quadratic B-spline as the best model for our purpose. The nonnegativity of ...
Equilibrium geometries and electronic properties of neutral and anionic Cu-n (n = 2, 10) clusters are determined via first-principles calculations which treat s and d electrons on an equal footing. We find cluster shapes similar to those reported in the li ...
We extend the results of Mirabelli and Peskin to supergravity. We study the compactification on S-1/Z(2) of Zucker's off-shell formulation of 5D supergravity and its coupling to matter at the fixed points. We clarify some issues related to the off-shell de ...
Inkjet technology is a compelling method for the flexible and cost-effective printing of functional inks. We show that nanocomposite solutions based on polystyrene and differently sized core/shell-type nanocrystals (NCs) formed by a CdSe core coated with a ...
