Remote detection by camera offers a versatile means for recording people activities. Relying principally on changes in video images, the method tends to fail in presence of shadows and illumination changes. This paper explores a possible remedy to these pr ...
Experimental studies were performed to investigate the flow patterns of liquid films of R-134a on vertical arrays of horizontal tubes under adiabatic test conditions at room temperature and during condensation at a saturation temperature of 304 K. Three ar ...
An improved two-phase flow pattern map is proposed for evaporation in horizontal tubes. Based on new flow pattern data for three different refrigerants covering a wide range of mass velocities, vapor qualities and heat fluxes. The new flow pattern map incl ...
In x-ray radiography, particularly for technical and industrial applications, a scanning setup is very often favorable when compared to a direct two-dimensional image acquisition. Here, we report on an efficient scanning method for grating based x-ray phas ...
Unexpectedly high-longitudinal piezoelectric coefficients have recently been reported in c-axis oriented Pb(Zr,Ti)O-3 thin films with morphotropic phase boundary composition [Fu , Appl. Phys. Lett. 80, 3572 (2002)]. Our analysis and experimental results sh ...
We identify a class of covalent functionalizations that preserve or control the conductance of single-walled metallic carbon nanotubes. [2+1] cycloadditions can induce bond cleaving between adjacent sidewall carbons, recovering in the process the sp(2) hyb ...
We describe a simple and low cost design for generating high voltage pulses using commercially available Ruhmkorff's coils. Our application is the biasing of large area photoconductive switches, used for THz generation, operating at kHz repetition rates. T ...
Most energy saving applications of advanced fenestration systems (solar blinds, novel types of glazing and daylight redirecting devices) require a precise knowledge of their directional light transmission features. These photometric properties can be descr ...
The tubes in shell-and-tube condensers, widely used in refrigeration and chemical process industries, are subjected to condensate inundation from the neighboring tubes. The aim of the present investigation is to study the effect of condensate inundation on ...
We demonstrate a novel high-resolution portable beam profiler based on a slanted linear array of small apertures, termed a slanted hole array beam profiler (SHArP). The apertures are directly fabricated on a metal-coated CMOS imaging sensor. With a single ...
