Computer modelling of insect-induced hot spots in stored wheat

Mani, S., Muir, W.E., Jayas, D.S. and White, N.D.G. 2001. Computer modelling of insect-induced hot spots in stored wheat. Canadian Biosystems Engineering/Le génie des biosystèmes au Canada 43:4.74.14. A computer model of insect-induced hot spots in stored wheat was developed by combining four submodels: (1) a three-dimensional, finite element model of heat transfer, (2) a population dynamics mo...

Collective excitation of plasmonic hot-spots for enhanced hot charge carrier transfer in metal/semiconductor contacts.

We show how a combination of near- and far-field coupling of the localised surface plasmon resonances in aluminium nanoparticles deposited on TiO2 films greatly enhances the visible light photocatalytic activity of the semiconductor material. We demonstrate two orders of magnitude enhancement in the rate of decomposition of methylene blue under visible light illumination when the surface of TiO...

Mathematical Modelling of the Thermal Accumulation in Hot Water Solar Systems

Mathematical modelling and defining useful recommendations for construction and regimes of exploitation for hot water solar installation with thermal stratification is the main purpose of this work. A special experimental solar module for hot water was build and equipped with sufficient measure apparatus. The main concept of investigation is to optimise the stratified regime of thermal accumula...

‏‎suppression of coke formation in thermal cracking by coke inhibitors‎‏

‏‎the main purpose of this research was to:1.develop a coking model for thermal cracking of naphtha.2.study coke inhibition methods using different coke inhibitors.developing a coking model in naphtha cracking reactors requires a suitable model of the thermal cracking reactor based on a reliable kinetic model.to obtain reliable results all these models shall be solved simultaneously.for this pu...
