The Research Center for Nuclear Physics (RCNP) cyclotron cascade system has been operated to provide high quality beams for various experiments. In order to increase the physics opportunities, the Azimuthally Varying Field (AVF) cyclotron facility was upgraded recently. A flat-topping system and an 18 GHz superconducting Electron Cyclotron Resonance (ECR) ion source were introduced to improve t...

This paper presents a multipurpose and low cost sensor for the simultaneous monitoring of temperature and ullage of wine in barrels in two of the most important stages of winemaking, that being fermentation and maturation. The distributed sensor subsystem is imbedded within the bung of the barrel and runs on battery for a period of at least 12 months and costs around $27 AUD for all parts. In a...

Industrialization of construction makes building operation more environmental friendly and sustainable. This change is necessary as it an industry that demands large consumption water energy, well being responsible for the disposal a high volume waste. However, transformation sector big challenge worldwide. It also known largest proportion material used in multistory buildings, thus its carbon ...

A mismatch between the fuel combustion temperature 2250 K (adiabatic) and the high pressure steam temperature up to 900 K, results in a large amount of thermodynamic losses in steam turbine (ST) cycles. A solid-state thermoelectric (TE) placed on top of a ST cycle will produce additional electrical power. By selecting the right materials for the TE generator for high temperature operation, the ...

This article is motivated by the importance of building web data mashups. Building on the remarkable success of Web 2.0 mashups, and specially Yahoo Pipes, we generalize the idea of mashups and regard the Internet as a database. Each internet data source is seen as a table, and a mashup is seen as a query on these tables. We assume that web data sources are represented in RDF, and SPARQL is the...

The cyclisation of a short chain into a ring provides fascinating scenarios in terms of transforming a finite array of spins into a quasiinfinite structure. If frustration is present, theory predicts interesting quantum critical points, where the ground state and thus lowtemperature properties of a material change drastically upon even a small variation of appropriate external parameters. This ...
