Abstract: Chlorinated ethanes are contaminants commonly found in soil and groundwater. The potential of nanoscale bimetallic

Abstract: This paper examines the potential of using laboratory-synthesized nanoscale iron particles to transform chlorinated methanes. The iron particles have diameters on the order of 1–100 nm (0.001–0.1 μm). Palladized iron ...

Abstract: Compliant linear-motion mechanisms are of great use in precision machines due to their excellent performances such as infinite resolution and low cost. The accuracy of the mechanisms is an important consideration for ...

Abstract: Thus far, zero-valent iron has been studied mostly for the degradation of structurally simple one- and two-carbon halogenated organic contaminants such as chlorinated methanes, ethanes, and ethenes. In this research, ...

Abstract: For pump turbines, an Sshaped curve can lead to failures in synchronization. To improve the hydraulic design, the component that is responsible for the formation of the Sshaped curve was identified by a hydraulic loss ...

Abstract: Thermoacoustic instability for chemically reacting flows was investigated using large eddy simulations coupled with a lookup table for turbulence-chemistry closure. The onset of instability was evaluated from pressure ...

Abstract: Recently, the synergistic tribological properties between molybdenum dialkyldithiocarbamate (MoDTC) and metal detergents have been the focus of significant attention due to the high requirements of engine oil. In this ...
