The solid-solid contact of rough spherical particles in packed beds takes place by the deformation of individual asperities that transmit the stresses to the main body of the particles. This causes an elastically deformed ...

The stagnant effective thermal conductivities (K0) of sugar cane bagasse (SCB), wheat bran (WB), orange pulp and peel (OPP) and their combination (weight proportion 1:2:2 SCB/OPP/WB) were obtained using the line heat source ...

Alumina thin films have been obtained by resistive evaporation of Al layer, followed by thermal oxidation by means of annealing in appropriate atmosphere (air or O2-rich), with variation of annealing time and temperature. ...

The purpose of this study was to increase the thermal resistance of a cellulose substrate, using films (a mixture of corundum-phase aluminum oxide, (x-Al2O3, and a PVA solution). The corundum phase, which was chosen due ...

Historically, many ancient civilizations erected buildings that happened to have high thermal inertia. In places with high daily amplitude of air temperature and intense solar radiation, buildings made of heavy elements ...

The main goal of this work is to perform a first-time analysis of the thermal cross-coupling in a system composed by some devices in an integration node degree composed by advanced UTBB SOI MOSFETs through numerical ...

The thermal behaviour, fire resistance and mechanical properties of jute-reinforced composites with vinylester and resol matrix were studied. Organically modified clay was added to the polymeric matrix in order to enhance ...
