We employ the intake fraction (iF) as an effective tool for expressing the source-to-intake relationship for pollutant emissions in life cycle analysis (LCA) or comparative risk assessment. Intake fraction is the fraction of chemical mass emitted into the ...
Carbon-13 solid-state NMR is used to determine, via the temperature dependence of paramagnetic shifts, the spin ladder of magnetic levels and the related spin exchange parameters in 4Fe-4S clusters. This study has been carried out between 180 and 330 ...
We have patterned multilayers of amorphous magnetic foils of Metglas/sup /spl reg// 2714a (cobalt-based) and Cu foil into microstructures of different sizes. We have studied the GM effect in these structures, and we have characterized the behavior of the r ...
Different FEM formulations have been developed in order to model the electromagnetic behaviour of type II super-conductors. The paper presents a comparison between simulations with A-V formulation models implemented in two FEM software packages (FLUX2D and ...
The printing of lead zirconate titanate (PZT, Pb(Zr,Ti)O-3) piezoelectric thick films on silicon substrates is being studied for potential use as microactuators, microsensors, and micro.. transducers. A fundamental challenge in the fabrication of useful PZ ...
The lead magnesium niobate [Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3 or PMN], and its solid solutions with lead titanate (PbTiO3 or PT), are of great interest because of their high electromechanical properties. At large PMN content, these materials exhibit relaxor characteristic ...
We report on x-ray photoemission and absorption measurements on ruthocuprate and SrRuO3 samples. The ruthocuprates include samples that are both weak ferromagnets and superconductors for part of the phase diagram. The results indicate that adding hydrogen ...
This Ph.D. thesis is focused on the numerical modelling of high-Tc superconductors (HTS) at the operating temperature of 77 K (liquid nitrogen). The purpose of numerical modelling is to precisely calculate the current and field distributions inside HTS dev ...
Using 3D finite element modelling, the present work investigates the coupling effect between superconducting filaments induced by an externally applied varying magnetic field. The considered geometry consists of two superconducting filaments separated by a ...
We have fabricated two-dimensional inductive devices by integrating micropatterned magnetic foils of high permeability (µr=100000) with winding patterns realised in printed circuit boards (PCBs) and flex-foil technology. We realise relatively high inductan ...
