Gas phase ammonia (NH3) measurements were made in July and August 2002 during the Atlant Aerosol Nucleation and Real-Time Characterization Experiment with two different chemical ionization mass spectrometry techniques. Correlations between the 1 min data f ...
Currently the herringbone grooved journal bearing (HGJB) has applications in the domain of small, low power energy related applications, where high rotational speeds are required for reaching reasonable efficiency and where standard oil lubricated bearings ...
The aim of this thesis work was to obtain a deeper understanding of spin-dependent transport by the study of mixed effects of heat and charge currents in magnetic nanostructures. Indeed, even thermodynamics establish a relationship between both currents, n ...
Electro-oxidn. of platinum film electrode deposited on yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) is examd. in situ using potential programmed voltammetry at 450 DegC in oxygen contg. atm. Under prolonged anodic oxidn. different sorts of oxidized species are formed ...
Reliability of SOFC stacks is a complex and key issue. This paper presents a simulation study including some degradation processes, namely, interconnect degradation and the anode reoxidation potential. Quantification for these phenomena has been included i ...
The fundamental aspects of classical thermodynamics are presented in a simple compact way. The equations derived are illustrated by numerous (111) examples, often direct application of the relations just obtained. The (four) laws of thermodynamics are pres ...
Basic limitations of single-junction and tandem p-n and p-i-n diodes are established from thermodynamical considerations on radiative recombination and semi-empirical considerations on the classical diode equations. These limits are compared to actual valu ...
The partitioning of total nitrate (TNO3) and total ammonium (TNH4) between gas and aerosol phases is studied with two thermodynamic equilibrium models, ISORROPIA and the aerosol inorganics model (AIM), and three data sets: high time r ...
We have examined the yielding and fracture behavior of Zr57.4Cu16.4Ni8.2Ta8Al10 metallic-glass-matrix composites with a small volume fraction (similar to 4 pct) of ductile crystalline particles under quasi-static uniaxial tension and compression and dynami ...
Snow avalanches are rapid, gravity-driven, mass flows involving snow, air, and sometimes debris (logs, stones, etc.). Two idealized types of avalanches are usually considered when one is interested in describing their motion. ...
