The European project ECCOFLOW aims at a versatile resistive-type superconducting fault current limiter. For the first time, such a device will be tested at two different sites. The project partners have developed a superconducting fault current limiter des ...

A mobile sampling and measurement system for the analysis of gaseous and liquid samples in the field was developed. An inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometer (ICP-OES), which is built into a van, was used as detector. The analytical syste ...
The occurrence of hot tearing during the industrial direct chill (DC) casting process results in significant quality issues and a reduction in productivity. In order to investigate their occurrence, a new semisolid constitutive law (Phillion et al.) for AA ...
Liquid cooling using interlayer microchannels has appeared as a viable and scalable packaging technology for 3-D multiprocessor system-on-chips (MPSoCs). Microchannel-based liquid cooling, however, can substantially increase the on-chip thermal gradients, ...

Phase equilibria in the CaO-Al2O3-Fe2O3-SO3 system have been studied, mainly at 1325 degrees C. In particular the solid solution compositions of ye'elimite Ca-4(Al6O12)SO4 and brownmillerite (C-2(A,F)) phases have been analysed and used to estimate the com ...
The interior surfaces of three-dimensional open cell foams were coated by a combination of dip coating and spin coating. Glycerol/water solutions were used as model Newtonian liquids, and the coating processes were studied on open cell carbon foams with 10 ...
We investigate the temperature dependence of the Yb valence in YbMn6Ge1.8Sn4.2 and YbMn6Ge1.6Sn4.4 using resonant inelastic x-ray scattering experiments. Yb is found to be in an intermediate valent state in the whole investigated temperature range (10-450 ...
Kinetic models have been demonstrated to be useful in on-line batch monitoring systems. The ability to monitor a reaction in real time is invaluable to the production process of industrial and pharmaceutical products. However, it is not a commonly used tec ...
Droplet impact is ubiquitous in our everyday experience; yet many mysteries associated with the phenomenon remain, including the role played by air during the impact process. When a liquid meets a solid surface in an atmosphere, it must drain the air benea ...
We present a novel optofluidic differential method for carrying out absorbance spectroscopy of subnanolitre volumes of liquid samples on a microfluidic chip. Due to the reduction of liquid volume, the absorbance detection in microfluidics is often hindered ...
