The motivation of this work derives from the need of the cutting tool industry to improve its products in order to support harder and harder working conditions, namely increasing cutting speeds and working on stronger modern materials. The lifetime of the ...
A systematic comparison between 1,3-difluorobenzene, 1,3-dichlorobenzene, and 1,3-dibromobenzene did not reveal major differences in their behavior towards strong bases such as lithium diisopropylamide or lithium 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidide. Thus, all 2, ...
A model of a system including a proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cell and its fuel processing section has been developed. The goal was to investigate the process configurations to identify the optimal operating conditions and the optimal process structu ...
Results concerning the coupling of the steam reforming and total oxidn. of methanol in a two-passage reactor are presented. A com. available copper-based catalyst is used for the steam reforming. For the total oxidn., a highly active cobalt oxide catalyst ...
Maintaining a fuel cell system in correct operating conditions when subjected to fast load changes requires good system control. In order to design such a controller, a simple PEFC system model describing all the important system dynamics and cross couplin ...
If process modelling is a well known approach to compute the performances of fuel cell systems, the optimal design of systems where the process configuration is not fixed a priori remains an issue. The goal of the presented methodology for integrating and ...
The dependence of the permittivity, on uniaxial pressure of ceramics in the paraelectric, ferroelectric and relaxer phases has been investigated for BaTiO3, Pb(ZrTi)O-3 and Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O-3. In the paraelectric ic phase, upon the application of stress, a ...
The aim of this project was to develop and implement an optimisation methodology that combines process thermo-modelling and process integration in a thermo-economic optimisation framework for fuel cells systems. During this project, a generic software has ...
