The disintegration of the carbon anodes during the electrolysis of alumina produces dust particles contaminating the electrolytic bath. This phenomenon, called dusting, is one of the most deleterious Al electrolysis failures, as it leads to a significant d ...
In this paper, a new and simple silicon straight tube is tested as a fluid density sensor. The tube structure has a hexagonal cross section. The fabrication process consists of anisotropic silicon etching and silicon fusion bonding. A tube structure with a ...
This study presents a new method, Köhler Theory Analysis (KTA), to infer the molar volume and solubility of organic aerosol constituents. The method is based on measurements of surface tension, chemical composition, and CCN activity coupled with Köhler the ...
In this Note we propose a stabilized explicit coupling scheme for fluid-structure interaction based on Nitsche's method. The scheme is stable irrespective of the fluid-solid density ratio. Numerical experiments show that optimal time accuracy can be obtain ...
The mass of the τ lepton has been measured in the decay mode τ→3πντ using a pseudomass technique. The result obtained from 414fb-1 of data collected with the Belle detector is Mτ=[1776.61±0. 13(stat)±0.35(sys)]MeV/c2. The upper limit on the relative mass d ...
PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a resin microchip having a microchannel having a transparent flow passage of low absorption in an ultraviolet area sealed with a fine upper substrate of excellent surface smoothness and high dimensional precision. ;SOLUTION ...
The overall topic of the investigation was the sepn. of basic proteins by cation exchange displacement chromatog. For this purpose two principal column morphologies were compared for the sepn. of RNase A and a-chymotrypsinogen, two proteins found in the bo ...
PHWAT is a new model that couples a geochemical reaction model (PHREEQC-2) with a density-dependent groundwater flow and solute transport model (SEAWAT) using the split- operator approach. PHWAT was developed to simulate multi- component reactive transport ...
The voltage-induced assembly of mercaptosuccinic acid-stabilized Au nanoparticles of 1.5 ± 0.4 nm diameter is investigated at the polarizable water|1,2-dichloroethane interface. Admittance measurements and quasi-elastic laser scattering (QELS) studies reve ...
We present high-resolution valence band and core level spectra of silver for photoelectron kinetic energies up to 8 keV. At these kinetic energies we estimate a surface contribution of less than 3%. Taking advantage of the favourable sp/d relative cross-se ...
