Abstract: Although the wet season in the tropical Amazon (10°N?20°S) at any one place and in any one year is initiated rapidly by synoptic systems, large-scale thermodynamic conditions modulate the frequency and intensity of these ...

Abstract: Superfine mesocarbon microbead powders (SFMCMBs) as the new supports for platinum electrocatalysts were first investigated. The Pt∕SFMCMB electrocatalysts were prepared by an impregnation-reduction ...

Abstract: Fluidic flexible matrix composite (F2MC) tubes with resonant fluidic circuits can absorb vibration at a specific frequency when bonded to flexible structures. The transverse structural vibration applies cyclic axial strain ...

Abstract: Suction anchors are large cylindrical anchors and well suited for both catenary and taut mooring systems. The determination of horizontal and vertical load components hinges upon factors such as the inclined loading angle ...
