Nanostructured Y2O3 ceramics elaborated by Spark Plasma Sintering of nanopowder synthesized by PEG assisted combustion method: The influence of precursor morphological characteristics
(Ceramics International, 2017)
Dense yttria ceramics were prepared by Spark Plasma Sintering of a nanopowder synthesized using a PEG assisted combustion method. Densification occurs between 800 degrees C and 900 degrees C without any additive. This ...
Localized discrete breather modes in neuronal microtubules
(Nonlinear Dynamics, 2017)
We made an attempt to provide a realistic picture of the localization of energy in microtubules (MTs), and we intend to model the nonlinear dynamics of MTs using the double-well form of the potential describing the ...
ATR-FTIR study of the interaction of CO2 with bacterial cellulose-based membranes
(Chemical Engineering Journal, 2017)
Bacterial cellulose (BC) was used as an active material for fabrication of the membrane for CO2 capture. The BC-membrane is further modified with silk fibroin protein and ZnO nanoparticles in order to increase the number ...
Nanoporous activated carbon cloth as a versatile material for hydrogen adsorption, selective gas separation and electrochemical energy storage
(Nano Energy, 2017)
The efficient storage of energy combined with a minimum carbon footprint is still considered one of the major challenges towards the transition to a progressive, sustainable and environmental friendly society on a global ...
Laser-assisted surface modification of Ti-implant in air and water environment
(Applied Surface Science, 2018)
A study of the surface modification of titanium CP grade 2 implant/target with high intensity picosecond (Nd:YAG) laser, operating at 1064 nm wavelength and pulse duration of 40 ps, in gaseous (air) and liquid (water) ...
Elemental analysis of aluminum alloys by Laser Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy based on TEA CO2 laser
(Journal of Alloys and Compounds, 2017)
The applicability of nanosecond infrared Transversely Excited Atmospheric (TEA) CO2 laser induced plasma for spectrochemical analysis of aluminum alloys was investigated. The plasma was generated by focusing a pulsed TEA ...
Influence of Nd3+: YAG laser irradiation on the properties of composites with carbon fibers
(Composites: Part B: Engineering, 2017)
The carbon fiber based composites: carbon fiber reinforced plastic and 3D carbon fiber reinforced carbon composites were exposed to the Nd3+: YAG laser beams (1064 nm). Experimental parameters for the interaction of the ...
Models of spin-orbit-coupled oligomers
(Chaos, 2017)
We address the stability and dynamics of eigenmodes in linearly shaped strings (dimers, trimers, tetramers, and pentamers) built of droplets in a binary Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). The binary BEC is composed of atoms ...
Insertion of lithium ion in anatase TiO2 nanotube arrays of different morphology
(Journal of Alloys and Compounds, 2017)
Anatase TiO2 nanotube arrays of different morphology were prepared by a two-step process: anodic oxidation at voltages 20-60 V and subsequent annealing at 400 degrees C. By amplifying anodization voltage the inner diameter ...
Cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of a low-shrinkage monomer and monoacylphosphine oxide photoinitiator: Comparative analyses of individual toxicity and combination effects in mixtures
(Dental Materials, 2017)
Objective. To compare cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of novel urethane-based monomer FIT-852 and monoacylphosphine oxide photoinitiator (Lucirin TPO) with conventional Bisphenol A-glycidyl-methacrylate (BisGMA) and triethylene ...
