Analytical description of solid particles kinematics due to a fluid flow and application to the depiction of characteristic kinematics in cold sprayi…

2017

Abstract In several multiphase flow applications such as fluidization, thermal spraying, atomization manufacturing and so on, the Newton's law is widely enacted to formulate the particle/fluid kinematic interaction and then to compute particles kinematics. This paper provides analytical solutions of the Newton's law in its time-dependent formulation or simplified formulation, the latter being a reduction of the time dependent problem into a spatial description of the particle motion. It was found that the velocity solution is strictly similar in both cases so that the simplified formulation is viable. The W_ 1 branch of the Lambert's function yields the analytical particle residence time an…

Numerical Procedures and their Practical Application in PV Module Analyses. Part IV: Atmospheric Transparency Parameters - Application

2020

Abstract The presented article relates to aspects of PV module testing using natural sunlight in outdoor conditions. It is a continuation of the article Part III: parameters of atmospheric transparency - determining and correlations. This article discusses the practical application of the indexes: atmosphere purity - k Tm , diffused component content - k s/o , beam clear sky index - K b - in testing various modules in outdoor conditions. Their influence on the conversion of modules made from various absorbers and various technologies is demonstrated. Their practical application in module testing in outdoor conditions is described and it - has been demonstrated that the results of the analys…

45° sign switching of effective exchange bias due to competing anisotropies in fully epitaxial Co3FeN/MnN bilayers

2017

We report an unusual angular-dependent exchange bias effect in ferromagnet/antiferromagnet bilayers, where both ferromagnet and antiferromagnet are epitaxially grown. Numerical model calculations predict an approximately 45° period for the sign switching of the exchange-bias field, depending on the ratio between magnetocrystalline anisotropy and exchange-coupling constant. The switching of the sign is indicative of a competition between a fourfold magnetocrystalline anisotropy of the ferromagnet and a unidirectional anisotropy field of the exchange coupling. This predicted unusual angular-dependent exchange bias and its magnetization switching process are confirmed by measurements on fully …

Simultaneous Synthesis and Consolidation of Nanostructured MoSi2

2002

A new process combining electric field activation and the imposition of pressure from mechanically activated powder mixtures is demonstrated as a means to simultaneously synthesize and densify nano-MoSi2 in one step. Nanophase reactants (Mo + 2Si) produced by mechanical activation are reacted by field activation with the simultaneous application of a uniaxial pressure. Mo + 2Si powders were comilled in a specially designed planetary mill to obtain nanometric reactants but to avoid formation of any product phases. These were then subjected to high alternating currents (1600 A) and pressures of 106 MPa. Under these conditions, a reaction is initiated and completed within a short period of tim…

Radial composition of single InGaN nanowires: a combined study by EDX, Raman spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction

2013

A consistent path for phase determination based on transmission electron microscopy techniques and supporting simulations.

2018

This work addresses aspects for the analysis of industrial relevant materials via transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The complex phase chemistry and structural diversity of these materials require several characterization techniques to be employed simultaneously; unfortunately, different characterization techniques often lack connection to yield a complete and consistent picture. This paper describes a continuous path, starting with the acquisition of 3D diffraction data - alongside classical high-resolution imaging techniques - and linking the structural characterization of hard metal industrial samples with energy-loss fine-structure simulations, quantitative electron energy-loss (EE…

Un estudio comparativo entre dos herramientas de respuesta de audiencia en las aulas universitarias

2019

El objetivo de este texto es investigar la influencia del uso de herramientas tecnológicas en las aulas universitarias. En concreto, analizamos y evaluamos la aplicación de dos herramientas de respuesta de audiencia libres (específicamente Socrative y Kahoot!) como herramientas que fomentan la participación y asistencia de los alumnos a las sesiones teóricas y facilitan el proceso de enseñanza-aprendizaje. Se analiza si estas herramientas pueden ser utilizadas como motivadoras, fomentadoras de la participación del alumnado y facilitadoras del aprendizaje. Además, la opinión de los estudiantes sobre la utilidad de estas herramientas en el aula y como métodos de enseñanza-aprendizaje. La mues…

Production of Nano-Sized Co<sub>3</sub>O<sub>4</sub> by Pyrolysis of Organic Extracts

2016

The most promising application field of materials based on nano-sized Co3O4 is catalysis. The method of production is one of the factors, which greatly affects the catalytic activity of Co3O4 catalysts. The aim of this research is to study possibilities of a new promising extractive-pyrolytic method (EPM) for the production of Co3O4 nanopowders and silica- and ceria-supported Co3O4 nanocomposites. Solutions of cobalt hexanoate in hexanoic acid and trioctylammonium tetrachlorocobaltate in toluene preliminary produced by solvent extraction were used as precursors. The precursors’ thermal stability, phase composition, morphology and the magnetic properties of the final products of pyrolysis we…
