Um material catódico homogêneo contendo LiFe0.9Mn0.1PO4 recoberto com carbono foi sintetizado através de uma reação de etapa única no estado sólido usando glucose como fonte de carbono. Difratometria de raios X de pó (XRD), microscopia eletrônica de transmissão (TEM), voltametria cíclica (CV), espectroscopia de impedância eletroquímica (EIS) e medidas galvanostáticas foram empregadas na caracte...

The maximum cooling temperature of a uniform thermoelectric material is limited by its dimensionless figure of merit ZT. Inhomogeneous or graded thermoelectric materials are mainly studied when there is a large temperature gradient and the material composition is typically optimized for maximum local ZT. We show that this is not the correct optimization for maximizing the cooling temperature. W...

introduction polymer gel dosimeters offer a practical solution to 3d dose verification for conventional radiotherapy as well as intensity-modulated and stereotactic radiotherapy. in this study, egsnrc calculated and pagat polymer gel dosimeter measured dose profiles from single shot irradiation with 18 mm collimator of gamma knife in homogeneous and inhomogeneous phantoms were compared with eac...

This paper describes a geometric algorithm for automated design of multi-stage molds for manufacturing multi-material objects. In multi-stage molding process, the desired multimaterial object is produced by carrying out multiple molding operations in a sequence, adding one material in the target object in each mold-stage. We model multi-material objects as an assembly of single-material compone...

We consider the propagation of a diffusive wave in a scattering medium submitted to a homogeneous expansion. The light multiply scattered by a glass spheres sample is measured. We analyze the variations of the scattered light when the material and the optical wavelength are dilated. We experimentally show that an isotropic expansion of the material is equivalent to a contraction of the waveleng...

The diffraction of electromagnetic plane waves by a rectangular grating formed by discrete steps in the interface of a homogeneous, isotropic, linear, negative phase– velocity (negative index) material with free space is studied using the semi–analytic C method. When a nonspecular diffracted order is of the propagating type, coupling to that order is significantly larger for a negative index ma...

Friction Surfacing Cladding (FSC) is a relatively new solid state process to deposit thin metallic clad layers on substrates. It employs a hollow rotating tool that supplies the clad material. Frictional and viscous heating take place that soften the clad material and enhance the bonding of the clad material to the substrate. Thin layers of commercially pure aluminium can be deposited well on a...

Abstract-Several types of waves in a layered composite material were examined. In order to obtain explicit approximate solutions. a perturbation method was used. This approach views the nonhomogeneous layering as a perturbation on a homogeneous but anisotropic solid. For propagation normal to the direction of layering, it was necessary to include the second-order perturbation terms to get quali...
