the methylotrophic thermo tolerant actinomycete strain 381, was isolated from a compost sample, assimilated methanol during growth. methanol dehydrogenase could not be detected in cell extracts using dye-linked assays in the absence of nad+. dichlorophenol-indophenol-linked methanol oxidation was detected in broken cell suspensions in the presence of nad+ and the absence of cyanide. taxonomic s...

We report on photo-thermal modulation of thin film surface plasmon polaritons (SPP) excited at telecom wavelengths and traveling at a gold/air interface. By operating a modulated continuous-wave or a Q-switched nanosecond pump laser, we investigate the photo-thermally induced modulation of SPP propagation mediated by the temperature-dependent ohmic losses in the gold film. We use a fiber-to-fib...

On (b, c)-system at finite temperature in thermo field approach Abstract We construct the finite temperature field theory of the two-dimensional ghost-antighost system within the framework of thermo field theory.

The thermo mechanical reliability of plated through holes (PTH) in printed circuit boards (PCB) normally is determined by different tests (e.g. thermo cycle test (TCT), interconnect stress test (IST), highly accelerated thermal shock (HATS). During these tests the PTH Cu is exposed to stresses and strains which are below the tensile strength and the fracture strain, respectively, which leads to...

In this paper the optimal control of boundary heat flux in a 2-D solid body with an arbitrary shape is performed in order to achieve the desired temperature distribution at a given time interval. The boundary of the body is subdivided into a number of components. On each component a time-dependent heat flux is applied which is independent of the others. Since the thermophysical properties are t...

Time reversal imaging method based on full wave numerical technique for likely breast tumors biological tissue in the Microwave-Induced Thermo-Acoustic Tomography (MITAT) system is discussed. In this paper, the mechanism of microwave-induced thermo-acoustic is strictly described based on thermodynamics and thermo-diffusion principles; the equivalent relationship between the absorbed microwave e...

in this research, static stresses analysis of boron nitride nano - tube reinforced composite (bnntrc) cylinder made of poly - vinylidene fluoride (pvdf) subjected to non - axisymmetric thermo - mechanical loads and applied voltage is developed. the surrounded elastic medium is modelled by pasternak foundation. composite structure is modeled based on piezoelectric fiber reinforced composite (pfr...

Strongly confined NaVO$^+$ segregation and its thermo-responsive functionality at the interface between simple sputter-deposited amorphous vanadium oxide thin films soda-lime glass was substantiated in present study by in-situ temperature-controlled Time of Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (ToF-SIMS). The obtained ToF-SIMS depth profiles provided unambiguous evidence for a reversible tran...

Novel mixed antioxidants composed of antioxidant IPPD and lanthanum (La) complex were added as a filler to form natural rubber (NR) composites. By mechanical testing, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy with attenuated total reflectance (FTIR-ATR) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), a string of data, including the mechanical properties, the variation of internal groups and the thermal and...

Snoek relaxation in bcc crystals is the delayed strain response to an applied stress resulting from interaction of interstitial atoms with field. It responsible for peak observed internal friction measurements ferrite. However, although martensite carbon supersaturated, several authors denied possibility bct-martensite. We investigated this matter by means Monte Carlo simulations and mean-field...
