Channeling of protons through BN nanotubes
(Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research. Section B: Beam Interactions with Materials and Atoms, 2015)
In this paper we study the angular and spatial distributions of protons channeled through boron-nitride (BN) nanotubes. The BN nanotubes have very similar structures like carbon nanotubes, but they are more thermally and ...
Oxygen dissociation at close-packed Pt terraces, Pt steps, and Ag-covered Pt steps studied with density functional theory
(Surface Science, 2002)
Using density functional theory we have characterized O(2) dissociation on flat and stepped Pt(111) surfaces. The reactivity of the steps is significantly higher than that of the flat terraces. Inclusion of Ag monoatomic ...
Ab initio studies of the structural, elastic, electronic and thermal properties of NiTi2 intermetallic
(Journal of Physics and Chemistry of Solids, 2015)
First principles calculations were performed in the framework of the density functional theory (DFF) using the Full Potential-Linear Augment Plane Wave method (FP-LAPW) within the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) ...
Numerical Prediction of Nucleate Pool Boiling Heat Transfer Coefficient under High Heat Fluxes
(Thermal Science, 2016)
This paper presents computational fluid dynamics approach to prediction of the heat transfer coefficient for nucleate pool boiling under high heat fluxes. The 3-D numerical simulations of the atmospheric saturated pool ...
Closed-form formulae for the derivatives of trigonometric functions at rational multiples of pi
(Applied Mathematics Letters, 2009)
In this sequel to our recent note [D. Cvijovic, Values of the derivatives of the cotangent at rational multiples of pi, Appl. Math. Lett. http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/J.aml.2008.03.013] it is shown, in a unified manner, by ...
Myeloperoxidase Inhibitors as Potential Drugs
(Current Drug Metabolism, 2015)
Myeloperoxidase (MPO) is an important member of the haem peroxidase - cyclooxygenase superfamily. This enzyme is physiologically expressed in circulating neutrophils, monocytes and some tissue macrophages including microglia. ...
In silico Therapeutics for Neurogenic Hypertension and Vasovagal Syncope
(Frontiers in Neuroscience, 2016)
Neurocardiovascular diseases (NCVD) are the leading cause of death in the developed world and will remain so till 2020. In these diseases the pathologically changed nervous control of cardiovascular system has the central ...
An inverse gas chromatographic study of the adsorption of alkanes on hydroxyapatite
(Journal of Materials Science, 2000)
Saturated alkanes adsorption on synthetic well-crystallized hydroxyapatite was studied by the inverse gas chromatography method, at zero coverage. Hydroxyapatite was prepared from Ca(OH)(2) and H3PO4 aqueous solutions by ...
Wake effect in interactions of fast ions with supported two-dimensional electron gas
(Nuclear Instruments and Methods in Physics Research. Section B: Beam Interactions with Materials and Atoms, 2010)
We study the interactions of fast charged particles with a two-dimensional electron gas supported by an insulating substrate, describing its high-frequency plasmon excitations by a two-fluid hydrodynamic model with the ...
Different Heating Systems for Single Family House Energy and Economic Analysis
(Thermal Science, 2016)
The existing building stock energy consumption accounts for about 38% of final energy consumption in Republic of Serbia. 70% of that energy is consumed by residential sector, mostly for space heating. This research is ...
