Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHORIA EHANCEMENT OF NUCLEAR REACTOR SAFETYBarbara Szpunar, Jerzy SzpunarThe recent nuclear accident in Fukushima demonstrates that a nuclear mishap should be viewed using interdisciplinary tools. For example, the urania fuel melts not only because of enhanced neutron flux but also because its thermal conductivity degrades when it oxidizes. Here we present the application of first principles calculations to evaluate the structural, mechanical and thermal properties of traditional urania … …Physics International, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 20 Dec 2013 · 7,640 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE ELECTRICAL PROPERTIES OF Mg-Cu-Zn FERRITES IRRADIATED BY γ-RAYS OF 60Co SOURCEMohamed Eltabey, H. Ebrahim Hassan, Ismail Abd Elrahim AliFerrite samples with chemical formula MgxCu0.5-xZn0.5Fe2O4 (x = 0.0, 0.2 and 0.4) was prepared by the conventional ceramic method. The enhanced changes in the dc/ac resistivity and the dielectric constant due to γ-rays irradiation by 60Co source were measured using the two probes technique. The samples showed decreasing of their resistivity at room temperature after irradiation for both dc and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 10 Dec 2013 · 7,485 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Simulation of the Transient Flow in Natural Gas Transmission Lines Using a Computational Fluid Dynamic MethodPedram Ghaseminejad, Nikan NoorbeheshtUntil now, almost all tools that are used to analyze gas transportation networks are based on steady flow conditions. Some design problems can be solved by the assumption of a steady state. However, some circumstances force us to use transient analyses, which commonly include changes in customer demand, the failure of a compressor station or gas pipeline ruptures. In this … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 6 Jan 2013 · 7,464 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMolecular Dynamics Investigation of Cutting Force in Nanometric Cutting of Monocrystalline SiliconY.H. Chen, F.Z. Fang, X.D. Zhang, X.T. HuProblem statement: Ultra-precision machining of monocrystalline silicon has become tremendously important in microelectronic, micromechanical and optical element manufacturing and the mechanism of nanometric cutting monocrystalline silicon has been a focused research topic. Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation is developed as an effective way for studying the material removal process at nanometric scale. Approach: Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulation of nanometric cutting is … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 21 Jun 2011 · 8,408 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractField Assessment of Anthracnose Disease Response for the Sorghum Germplasm Collection from the Mopti RegionJ. E. ErpeldingProblem statement: Sorghum anthracnose (Colletotrichum sublineolum) is a highly variable pathogen and new sources of host plant resistance are required for the development of resistant sorghum varieties. Germplasm collections are an important source of host plant resistance and screening germplasm will be essential to identify new sources of resistance. Approach: The sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) collection from the Mopti region of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,217 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuantum Mechanical Calculation of the Optical Absorption of Silver and Gold Nanoparticles by Density Functional TheoryElham Gharibshahi, Elias SaionProblem statement: Metal nanoparticles confine the motion of conduction electrons and exhibit a strong optical absorption of electromagnetic radiation in the UV-vis-NIR region. The absorption is classically derived from the collective oscillations of free electrons in a metallic nanostructure as a consequence of incident electromagnetic radiation polarizing the particle optically embedded in a dielectric matrix. These oscillations, known as the … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 16,193 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis and Characterization of Organotin(IV) Complexes Derived of 3-(Dimethylamino)benzoic Acid: Cytotoxic Assay on Human Liver Carcinoma Cells (HepG2)Yip-Foo Win, Siang-Guan Teoh, Tengku-Sifzizul Tengku-Muhammad et al.Problem statement: Many studies have been carried out on organotin(IV) complexes derivative of carboxylate anions. However, the synthesis and characterization as well as the cytotoxic assay of organotin(IV) carboxylate derived of 3-(dimethylamino)benzoic acid have not been studied. Approach: Organotin(IV) carboxylate complexes derivative of 3-(dimethylamino)benzoic acid, 3-[N(CH3)2]C6H4COOH have been successfully synthesized. Two types of diorganotin(IV) complexes, [{3-[N(CH3)2]C6H4COO(R)2Sn}2O]2 dimer (R = methyl … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,315 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAtomic Layer Epitaxial Growth of Gaas on Porous Silicon SubstrateMohamed Lajnef, Afrah Bardaoui, Isabelle Sagne et al.GaAs thin film has been grown on porous silicon by metal organic chemical vapour deposition (MOCVD) for different growth temperatures using atomic layer epitaxy (ALE) technique. The morphology of GaAs layer was investigated by atomic force microscopy (AFM). The effect of growth temperature is studied using photoluminescence measurements (PL).The photoluminescence spectra revealed a dissymmetry form toward high energies attributed to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 7,029 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Gamma Irradiation on the Structure Diffusion Coefficient of Co-Zn Doped FerriteDalal Mohammed HemedaA series of the ferrite system Co0.6Zn0.4MnxFe2-xO4 with (x = 0.7, 0.8, 0.9 and 1) were prepared by general ceramic method. The X-ray diffraction patterns confirmed the formation of the cubic single phase structure. The lattice parameter and the crystal size increased after irradiation which was attributed to the formation of ferrous ions of larger radius than that of ferrous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 6,731 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Laser Irradiation on the Structural and Electrical Properties of Co-Zn Ferrite Thin FilmNehad M. TashtoushThin films of irradiated and non-irradiated Co-Zn ferrite was prepared by the thermal evaporation method on a glass substrate. The samples were annealed at 200°C, 400°C and 600°C for 1hr. The XRD analysis of all kinds of films, prepared for this study, shows that the spinel phase is almost completed after annealing. The change of the XRD after annealing is … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2005 · 7,039 accessesView PDFCite
