In order to implement a sustainable approach in the development of carbonaceous materials with improved capacitive properties, Pd-doped cellulose carbon aerogels (CA-PdX) is presented. Upon introducing Pd nanoparticles matrix prior gel formation, various content are prepared. Physicochemical properties (such as texture, morphology, crystal structure, and surface chemistry) CA-PdX revealed. Addi...

This study aimed at determining the effects of preharvest aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) applications in different doses on the fruit quality of Black Beauty plum during cold storage. Plum trees were applied AVG doses (100 and 200 mgL-1) two weeks before the estimated harvest date. Change in physical, mechanical, chemical and bioactive compounds in fruit samples were determined at weekly interva...

While the amount of information available over the internet is steadily growing, there is an increasing demand to efficiently and effectively make use of various shared information resources over the World Wide Web (WWW). Ideally, WWW applications should be shielded from the heterogeneous nature of underlying storage systems, and existing data sources should be transparently glued together by r...

Thermal energy storage (TES) technology is considered to have the greatest potential balance demand and supply overcoming intermittency fluctuation nature of real-world heat sources, making a more flexible, highly efficient reliable thermal system. This article provides comprehensive state-of-the-art review latent (LTES) with particular focus on medium-high temperature phase change materials fo...

The use of a latent heat storage system using phase change materials (PCMs) is an effective way of storing thermal energy and has the advantages of high-energy storage density and the isothermal nature of the storage process. PCMs have been widely used in latent heat thermalstorage systems for heat pumps, solar engineering, and spacecraft thermal control applications. The uses of PCMs for heati...

The availability of storagemedia with high capacity at low prices has recently increased the demand for software applications that are able to analyze large data volumes. Engineers build large-scale storage systems using both scale-up and scale-out techniques. Scale-up increases the amount of data a single nodes stores, whereas scale-out aggregates the capacity of several servers and increases ...
