The composition of the passive layers formed on Zn electrode in naturally aerated and de-aerated 0.1 M KClO4 solution were studied using X-ray hotoelectron spectroscopic measurements (XPS). A correlation between the presence of dissolved O2 and the formation of an interior passive ayer was carried out. Librated Cl− from the perchlorate reduction reaction was detected in its solutions during Zn ...

Ceramic Electrolytes In article number 2203663, Ritu Sahore, Xi Chelsea Chen, and co-workers investigate the role of ceramic architecture excess surface polymer layers in a 3D interconnected ceramic/polymer composite electrolyte. The cover art highlights that despite interconnectedness, high impedance polymer/ceramic interface at is bottleneck.

In recent years, impedance measurement method by piezoelectric (PZT) wafer activesensor (PWAS) has been widely adopted for non-destructive evaluation (NDE). In this method, theelectrical impedance of a bonded PWAS is used to detect a structural defect. The electro-mechanicalcoupling of PZT materials constructs the original principle of this method. Accordingly, the electricalimpedance of PWAS c...

Grid impedance estimation is used in many power system applications such as grid connected renewable energy systems and power quality analysis of smart grids. The grid impedance estimation techniques based on signal injection uses Ohm’s law for the estimation. In these methods, one or several signal(s) is (are) injected to Point of Common Coupling (PCC). Then the current through and voltage of ...

this paper is concerned with investigation of vertical impedance function of a surface rigid circular foundation resting on a semi-infinite transversely isotropic alluvium. to this end, the equations of motion in cylindrical coordinate system, which because of axissymmetry are two coupled equations, are converted into one partial differential equation using a method of potential function. the g...

An aptasensor with enhanced anti-fouling properties has been developed. As a case study, the aptasensor was designed with specificity for human thrombin. The sensing platform was developed on screen printed electrodes and is composed of a self-assembled monolayer made from a ternary mixture of 15-base thiolated DNA aptamers specific for human thrombin co-immobilised with 1,6-hexanedithiol (HDT)...

Objective(s)Bioelectrical impedance is the measure of impedance of the body. Impedance consists of electric resistance and reactance. Phase angle (PA) is the tan value of the ratio of reactance versus electric resistance. PA depends on cell membrane integrity and on body cell mass. There exists a correlation between PA values and body cell mass.The objective of this study was to compare the PA ...
