Analysis of melt blowing dies using computational fluid dynamics .
(2007)
For a single annular jet and the blunt slot die, a previously developed rheological model was used to predict the fiber diameter, velocity, and temperature. Then, these were used to set boundary conditions in simulations ...
Conversion of alicyclic compounds for improvement of fuel properties.
(2006)
The presence of Pt improves the production of ring-contraction and ring-opening products from tetralin due to hydrogenation of tetralin to decalin. In addition, the location of metal (Pt) affects the ratio of RC/RO on the ...
Reaction pathways and catalyst phase transformations during synthesis of nanotubes and nanowires by the vapor-liquid-solid mechanism.
(2006)
The discovery of carbon nanotubes and semiconductor nanowires has initiated an exploding research field in which enormous efforts have been invested due to their fundamental significance to the study of size- and ...
Effect of post-fill pressure and nanoclay on void morphology in resin transfer molded composites.
(2004)
Resin transfer molded (RTM) composites usually suffer from the formation of flow-induced defects such as voids. Detrimental effects of voids on performance of molded parts have been studied extensively. Yet, knowledge of ...
Targeting fusion proteins containing L-methioninase to cancer cells.
(2007)
The methioninase-annexin V fusion protein bound specifically to phosphatidylserine (PS) immobilized on plastic plates, as well as on the surface of MCF-7 cancer cells in which PS was induced to be on the surface by the ...
A bone tissue engineering approach based on the combination of biomimetic scaffolds and flow perfusion culture.
(2007)
Bone tissue engineering has progressively emerged as a response to the current limited replacement therapies for damaged or lost bone tissue. Ideally, the implanted construct should aid in complete bone regeneration in a ...
Controlled structures and properties of single-walled carbon nanotubes custom-produced by chemical vapor deposition method.
(2006)
Single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNT) are considered as one of the most promising nanomaterials for a large variety of applications that require SWNTs with controlled structures and properties, which is the main focus of ...
Surface investigations of the mechanism of single walled carbon nanotube growth by carbon monoxide disproportionation over a cobalt-molybdenum catalyst.
(2003)
To examine the validity of this hypothesis different catalyst formulations and reaction conditions have been used. These series of tests included the doping of the Co Mo catalyst with sodium, the substitution of molybdenum ...
Synthesis of polymer nanostructures via the use of surfactant surface aggregates as templates.
(2007)
The subject of this work is the synthesis of polymer nanostructures via the use of surfactant surface aggregates as templates, also termed Template Assisted Admicellar Polymerization (TAAP). The first chapter reviews some ...
Experimental and computational analysis of the aerodynamics of melt blowing dies.
(2004)
An experimental and computational study of melt blowing jets and processes was done. Computational studies were done on three types of melt blowing jets: conventional annular, tapered annular and swirling. Conventional ...
