Some examples of mineral eco-materials

Eco-friendly Blocks by Blended Materials

In spite of broad improvements in construction technology, cement is still stayed as binding material for construction purposes. Cement industries are the main sources for the contribution of carbon dioxide (co2) into the atmosphere. So, there is a need to use new materials as binders (green binders) in substitute for cement, which leads to reducing the production of cement. In this study, fly ...

Eco-friendly high-performance silicide thermoelectric materials

Silicide-based thermoelectrics are examples of cost-efficient and environmentally friendly new energy materials, which can be used for power-generation applications in the range of 500–800 K. We review the research focusing on the exploration of n-typeMg2IV-based solid solutions (IV= Si, Ge and Sn) and summarize the most prominent discoveries achieved so far in their studies. Owing to their sup...

Recognizing Materials from Virtual Examples

Due to the strong impact of machine learning methods on visual recognition, performance on many perception task is driven by the availability of sufficient training data. A promising direction which has gained new relevance in recent years is the generation of virtual training examples by means of computer graphics methods in order to provide richer training sets for recognition and detection o...

Some Effective Oop Examples

This paper will present two examples that we feel can convince students of the benefits of object-oriented design and spur their interest. Both examples are well-known and fun to program. We first describe a sorting animation. In this project we will ask students to implement animation of various sorting algorithms, and for each sorting algorithm the user can choose one of two methods of animat...
