A decomposition model for resin in glass fiber-reinforced polymer composites (GFRP) under elevated and high temperature was derived from chemical kinetics. Kinetic parameters were determined by four different methods using thermal gravimetric data at diffe ...
The prediction of the rheological properties of concentrated suspensions is of great importance both in industrial processes (ceramics, cements, and pharmaceutics) and natural phenomena (debris flow, soil erosion). In a previous paper, we presented a new m ...
A previous analysis of the average intensity and mean-square intensity difference of Friedel opposites, confined to the space group P1 [Flack & Shmueli (2007). Acta Cryst. A63, 257–265], is here extended to all the noncentrosymmetric space groups. The prese ...
We describe a highly effective method of reducing thermal sensitivity in piezoresistive sensors, in particular silicon cantilevers, by taking advantage of the dependence of the piezoresistive coefficient of silicon on crystallographic orientation. Two simi ...
We report on the magnetic susceptibility and Raman scattering measurements of the S = 1/2 three-dimensional (3D) spin web compound Cu3TeO6. The magnetic susceptibility shows an antiferromagnetic ordering at T-N similar to 61 K and a deviation from the Curi ...
LaCoO3 displays two broad anomalies in the DC magnetic susceptibility chi(DC), occurring, respectively, around 50 K and 500 K. We have investigated the first of them within the 10 K < T < RT temperature range using Co K alpha(1) x-ray absorption spectrosco ...
We calculate the one-electron spectral function of the attractive-U Hubbard model in two dimensions. We work in the intermediate coupling and low-density regime and evaluate analytically the self energy. The results are obtained in a framework based on the ...
The transition metal tellurium oxychloride, Ni-5(TeO3)(4)Cl-2, has been investigated by high-field electron-spin resonance for frequencies up to 3 THz, at temperatures well below the magnetic ordering at 23 K. At zero external field several resonance modes ...
Specific heat CP of zirconia and yttria stabilized zirconia doped or not with erbia and ceria was measured from 128 to 823 K and of yttria stabilized zirconia doped with erbia and plutonia from 443 to 1573 K. The new determined data were modelled using Deb ...
The performances of oscillating differential scanning calorimetry (ODSC) and laser-flash technique in determining the thermal conductivity and the specific heat of zirconia-based materials, analogous to a potential nuclear fuel, were compared. The tested m ...
