Zinc oxide nanostructured thin films are transparent semiconducting ceramics increasingly used in a wide range of integrated devices. This paper outlines a simple strategy to integrate arrays of zinc oxide nanostructured thin films on elastomeric substrate ...
Carbon nanotubes the long, cylindrical carbon molecules are the most exciting material discovered lately. They offer the possibility for a large number of applications. My task was to explore the way how we can use multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWNT) in s ...
In the past decades, wire electric discharge machining (W-EDM) has undergone a number of techno-logical developments aimed at improving its process performance. Still the current practice of W-EDM is not defect-free and results in a number of surface relat ...
In this paper, we investigate the diversity-multiplexing tradeoff (DMT) of the multiple-antenna (MIMO) static half-duplex relay channel. A general expression is derived for the DMT upper bound, which can be achieved by a compress-and-forward protocol at th ...

A new feeding concept for electrical transportation system is presented, based on supercapacitative energy storage. Supercapacitors are new and poewrful components for energy storage. Compared with batteries, the amount of energy supercapacitors can store ...
The invention relates to an apex-locating method and device for determining the depth position of the apex in a dental root canal. It uses a device that makes it possible to form a circuit comprising a first electrode-probe inserted in the root canal of a ...
There are many inventions described and illustrated herein. In a first aspect, the present invention is directed to a memory device and technique of reading data from and writing data into memory cells of the memory device. In this regard, in one embodimen ...
Characterizing and quantifying vertical exchange processes is essential for understanding physical and biological dynamics in stratified lakes and oceans. Unfortunately, the role of mixing is still poorly understood because of the challenges of conducting ...
Even if models are able to predict more and more accurately pollutant discharge in streams, surface water sampling remains a very common practice to monitor substance concentrations and loads in streams and to calibrate models. However, as this method is t ...
The paper presents a procedure for parameter identification along with its application to the model of a combined cycle power plant that includes the surrounding electrical network, built for the analysis of islanding maneuvers transients. The paper illust ...
