Tuning the tribological performance of plasma-treated hybrid layers of PEEK-GO-DLC

Roberto Guarino

Graphene and graphene oxide (GO)-based coatings are of great interest due to their mechanical, electrical and/or thermal performance that add functionalities to materials employed in many industrial and biomedical appli-cations. Hybrid diamond-like carbon ...

A simple theoretical model for estimating the frequency characteristics of black hole mergers

Roberto Guarino

Gravitational waves, despite predicted within the Theory of General Relativity about a century ago, were observed experi-mentally only in the last few years, thanks to the recent advances of the LIGO and Virgo detectors. In this work, we introduce a simple ...

Modelling electronic transport in monocrystalline metal oxide gas sensors: from the surface kinetics to the experimental response

Roberto Guarino, Gianluca Piccinini

Gas sensing systems and devices based on metal oxides are widely spreading due to their high performance in terms of sensor response and relatively low costs. Despite several experimental studies, as well as molecular simulations, are available in the lite ...

Parametric study of the TF coil design for the European DEMO

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák, Rainer Wesche, Roberto Guarino

In addition to a reduced number of feeders, which would simplify their integration in the cryostat of the tokamak, the present study considers the possibility to reduce the voltage during safety discharge of the toroidal field (TF) coils. A lowered dischar ...

A design proposal for the European DEMO superconducting bus bars and current leads

Pierluigi Bruzzone, Kamil Sedlák, Rainer Wesche, Roberto Guarino

The integration of the feeder system in a tokamak involves complex engineering, manufacturing and logistics issues. Therefore, within the pre-conceptual design activities of the European DEMO fusion reactor, it is important to provide a preliminary sizing ...
