Objective. To investigate the processing induced particle alignment on fracture behavior of four multiphase dental ceramics (one porcelain, two glass-ceramics and a glass-infiltrated-alumina composite). Methods. Disks ...

To know how much misalignment is tolerable for a particle accelerator is an important input for the design of these machines. In particle accelerators the beam must be guided and focused using bending magnets and magnetic ...

Clay-containing nanocomposites of polystyrene-b-poly(ethylene-co-butylene)-b-polystyrene (SEBS) copolymers having cylindrical domains were obtained by melt extrusion using a tape die. One type of sample (SEBS-MA) had maleic ...

Radioactive Particle Tracking (RPT) is a powerful advanced technique for studying the solid motion within industrial scale multiphase reactors. However, it is rather difficult to implement in actual industrial installations, ...

Photocatalysts based on mixtures of rutile and anatase forms of titania usually show a better catalytic performance than each individual component. In order to understand this behavior, several experimental and theoretical ...

The Pierre Auger Observatory in Malargüe, Argentina, is designed to study the properties of ultra-high energy cosmic rays with energies above 1018 eV. It is a hybrid facility that employs a Fluorescence Detector to perform ...
