Vulcan XC-72 samples were functionalized with methanol (MeOH) by Intermittent Microwave Heating (IMH) under different treatment conditions. To assess the effectiveness of proposed method citric acid functionalization was also performed as comparison. The obtained carbonaceous supports used to synthesize Pt/C-MeOH and Pt/C-CA nanocatalysts. surface assessed using them support for Pt/C nanocataly...

Stations of dipole antennas for SKA1-Low will comprise 256 elements spread over an area with a diameter 38 m. We consider the effect residual unsubtracted sources well outside main beam differing numbers unique station configurations, in epoch reionization (EoR) and cosmic dawn (CD), both simulation theoretical considerations. find that sidelobes imprint power renders cosmological signal unobse...

■ Fully automatic operation From the world’s first commercial CO2 membrane plant for CO2 recovery in EOR applications (Scurry Area Canyon Reef Operators [SACROC] oil field) to the world’s largest CO2 membrane plant for natural gas cleanup (1.28 Bcf/d, Cakerawala Gas Field Development—Petronas Carigali Hess Operating Company), Schlumberger continues to lead the industry with state-of-the-art CYN...

For the nonlinear foam model, extremely small time steps were required in the forward integration to converge to an accurate solution to the semi-discrete (discretized in space, continuous in time) problem. The semi-discrete solution still had strong oscillations in gridblock properties associated with the steep front moving through the reservoir. In addition, an extraordinarily tight tolerance...

A series of bimetallic Sn-Pd catalysts were prepared by a template-free two step electrodeposition method. According to this method, Sn was electrodeposited firstly in potentiostatic or galvanostatic regime on Cu electrodes the form dendrites, then Pd galvanostatically second electrode with dendrites. The produced electrocatalysts compared an electrocatalyst obtained bare electrode. morphologic...

Micro-, small, and medium enterprises (MSMEs) play a crucial role in the economic growth of emerging markets. This study examines effect entrepreneurial leadership (EL) on success (ES) MSMEs Malaysia through mediating opportunity recognition (EOR) innovation capability (IC). To examine proposed mediation model, we utilized structured questionnaire to collect data for this quantitative research....

GrunouetterS Strength of weak ties’ theory offers a satisfying approach to the study of integration in networks of face-to-face interaction consisting of ~~~~tip~e subgroups. The present paper tests five hypotheses of this t~~eor,v in the setting of a n~~~t~dis~ip~inary social network of bioIogica1 scientists. Considerable support for the theory is indicated: the local bridges and intergroup ti...
