In this work, molecular fortifiers are added to a highly aromatic and rigid epoxy monomer bis(2,7 diglycidyl ether naphthalenediol) methane (NNE) possessing very high glass transition temperature (Tg) when cured with 4,4′-diaminodiphenyl sulfone (DDS) explore their impact upon mechanical thermal properties reactivity. The used the nonfunctional naphthalene (NAPH), reactive diluent o-cresyl glyc...

Abstract The problem of how to evaluate investments in airports has now been studied for over 50 years. This paper analyzes the use different methods like cost–benefit analysis (CBA), economic impact (EIA), and computable general equilibrium (CGE) models address question. It assesses strength weaknesses each method, it discusses which have used countries. argues that CBA approach newer CGE mode...

Hydrogen is a promising fuel to decarbonize aviation, but macroeconomic studies are currently missing. Computable general equilibrium (CGE) models suitable conduct analyses and frequently employed in hydrogen aviation research. The main objective of this paper investigate existing CGE related (a) (b) derive research agenda for hydrogen-powered aviation. Therefore, the well-established method sy...

Regulatory measures have proven the favored approach to climate change mitigation in the U.S., while market-based policies have gained little traction. Using a model that resolves the U.S. economy by region, income category, and sector-specific technology deployment opportunities, this paper studies the magnitude and distribution of economic impacts under regulatory versus market-based approach...

BACKGROUND Computable general equilibrium models are known as a powerful instrument in economic analyses and widely have been used in order to evaluate trade liberalization effects. The purpose of this study was to provide the impacts of trade openness on pharmaceutical industry using CGE model. METHODS Using a computable general equilibrium model in this study, the effects of decrease in tar...

This paper presents a method to design Spiking Central Pattern Generators (SCPGs) to achieve locomotion at different frequencies on legged robots. It is validated through embedding its designs into a Field-Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) and implemented on a real hexapod robot. The SCPGs are automatically designed by means of a Christiansen Grammar Evolution (CGE)-based methodology. The CGE perf...

Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) modeling applications of the biomass gasification process help to optimize the gasifier. This study aims to investigate the impact of several physical parameters on the behavior of gasification in a fixed-bed downdraft gasifier. To that end, the study presents a comparison of the results computed using the Fire Dynamics Simulator (FDS) model with experimental r...
