Linear dynamics modelling of droplet deformation in a pulsatile electric field
(
Institution of Chemical Engineers
, 2016 , Article)
A linear dynamic model of water droplet deformation in the presence of an electric field has been developed. Analytical solutions of the differential equation of motion are provided with different waveforms as forcing ...
Synthesis of mesoporous carbons with controlled morphology and pore diameters from SBA-15 prepared through the microwave-assisted process and their CO2 adsorption capacity
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2016 , Article)
Mesoporous carbon materials (CMK-3-T-MW) with high surface area, different pore diameters and rod shaped morphology were synthesized via nanocasting technique using the SBA-15 templates prepared by ultra-fast microwave-assisted ...
Analysis of partial electrocoalescence by Level-Set and finite element methods
(
Institution of Chemical Engineers
, 2016 , Article)
The coalescence of a water drop in a dieletric oil phase at a water layer interface in the presence of an electric field is simulated by solving the Navier Stokes and charge conservation equations with the finite element ...
Microtron Irradiation Induced Tuning of Band Gap and Photoresponse of Al-ZnO Thin Films Synthesized by mSILAR
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2016 , Article)
Al-doped polycrystalline nano ZnO (Al-ZnO) thin films with different doping concentrations were successfully prepared by the microwave-assisted successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (mSILAR) technique. The structural ...
A mixed iron–manganese based pyrophosphate cathode, Na2Fe0.5Mn0.5P2O7, for rechargeable sodium ion batteries
(
Royal Society of Chemistry
, 2016 , Article)
The development of secondary batteries based on abundant and cheap elements is vital. Among various alternatives to conventional lithium-ion batteries, sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) are promising due to the abundant resources ...
Enhanced photocatalytic degradation of a phenolic compounds' mixture using a highly efficient TiO2/reduced graphene oxide nanocomposite
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2016 , Article)
A nanocomposite (namely rGOTi) was prepared by loading 0.33 weight percent of reduced graphene oxide (rGO) on commercial TiO2 nanoparticles using a hydrothermal method. The as-prepared nanocomposite was characterized using ...
Universal power law behavior of the AC conductivity versus frequency of agglomerate morphologies in conductive carbon nanotube-reinforced epoxy networks
(
John Wiley and Sons Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
The Jonscher universal power law for ac conductivity versus frequency (f = /2) in the dispersion region was tested for a multiwall carbon nanotube/epoxy nanocomposite. The effect of changes in agglomerate morphology on the ...
A comparative study on the performance of hybrid solar cells containing ZnSTe QDs in hole transporting layer and photoactive layer
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2016 , Article)
In this paper, ZnSTe quantum dots-based hybrid solar cells (HSC) with two different device architectures have been investigated. The improved performance of the poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) and [6,6]phenyl C71 butyric ...
Strength and durability of composite concretes with municipal wastes
(
American Concrete Institute
, 2016 , Article)
The influence of different types of polyethylene (PE) substitutions as partial aggregate replacement of microsteel fiber-reinforced self-consolidating concrete (SCC) incorporating incinerator fly ash was investigated. The ...
Impact of moisture contents on the performance of organic bi-layer ITO/OD thermo-electric cells
(
Springer New York LLC
, 2016 , Article)
We propose a bi-layer thermo-electric cell based on elastic indium tin oxide (ITO) substrate and organic semiconductor orange dye (OD). It is observed that thermo-electric voltages are ~30% higher in bi-layer ITO/OD cell ...
