We propose a microfabrication technology for a flexible temperature sensor with a 100x100 mu m(2) sensing area and a probe length of 7 cm. We use a biocompatible new high temperature-resistant polyimide (U-Vamish-S, Ube, Dosseldorf, Germany) to embed a thi ...

Large scale power production benefits from the high efficiency of gas-steam combined cycles. In the lower power range, fuel cells are a good candidate to combine with gas turbines. Such systems can achieve efficiencies exceeding 60%. High temperature Solid ...
The work accomplished during the second period of the project mainly focused on the experimental evaluation of the prechamber system comparing its performance regarding emissions and efficiency to standard spark ignition mode. Further instrumentation of th ...
Rankine cycles for low to medium power and low temperature heat using water as working fluid, were almost written off. The main arguments speaking against them are reviewed in this paper and the conceptual design of the equipment entirely revisited. An adv ...
Both ultrashort echo-time STEAM and MEGA-PRESS-edited spectroscopy were used to validate noninvasive quantification of vitamin C (ascorbate) in the developing rat brain, where changes in ascorbate concentration have been reported. Despite strong overlap wi ...
The fractal dimensions of FeZSM-5 zeolites were used to characterize the change in their geometry depending on different post-synthesis treatments. The fractal dimension values were estimated from the Dubinin-Astakhov isotherms of nitrogen adsorption and r ...
Objective: Quantitation of glutathione (GSH) in the human brain in vivo using short echo time 1 H NMR spectroscopy is challenging because GSH resonances are not easily resolved. The main objective of this study was to validate such quantitation in a clinic ...
This paper illustrates a methodology developed in order to facilitate the analysis of complex systems characterized by a large number of technical, economical and environmental parameters. Thermo-economic modeling of a natural gas combined cycle including ...
In this paper the short term scheduling optimization of a combined cycle power plant is accomplished by exploiting hybrid systems, i.e. systems evolving according to continuous dynamics, discrete dynamics, and logic rules. Discrete features of a power plan ...
Multi-objective optimisation (MOO) has been used with an equation solver data reconciliation software to develop a tool for sensor system design based on modifying the sensitivity matrix of a simulated process. MOO enables searching for the best trade-off ...
