Current study reported a facile method to investigate the effects of stacking sequence layers of hybrid composite materials on ballistic energy absorption by running the ballistic test at the high velocity ballistic impact conditions. The velocity and absorbed energy were accordingly calculated as well. The specimens were fabricated from Kevlar, carbon, and glass woven fabrics and resin and wer...

We study the evolution of the galaxy UV luminosity density as a function of redshift in the Hubble Deep Field North (HDF–N). We estimate the amount of energy absorbed by dust and hidden from optical observations by analyzing the HDF–N photometric data with the spectral energy distribution fitting method. According to our results, at redshifts 1 ≤ z ≤ 4.5, the global energy observed in the UV re...

Two oppositely charged particles created within a microscopic space-time region can be separated, accelerated over a much larger distance, and brought to a recollision by a laser field. Consequently, new reactions become feasible, where the energy absorbed by the particles is efficiently released. By investigating the laser-dressed polarization operator, we identify a new contribution describin...

Detector systems using plastic scintillators can provide instantaneous measurements with high spatial resolution in many applications including small field and high dose gradient field applications. Energy independence and water equivalence are important dosimetric properties that determine whether a detector will be useful in a clinical setting. Using Monte Carlo simulations, we calculated the...

Bacterial cellulose (BC) has great potential to be used as a new filler to reinforce isotactic polypropylene (iPP) due to its high crystallinity, biodegradability, and efficient mechanical properties. In this study, esterification was used to modify BC, which improved the surface compatibility of the iPP and BC. The results indicated that the cellulose octoate (CO) changed the surface propertie...

Granular computing is a computational paradigm that mimics human cognition in terms of grouping similar information together. Compatibility operators such as cardinality, orientation, density, and multidimensional length act on both in raw data and information granules which are formed from raw data providing a framework for human-like information processing where information granulation is int...

Oxide Dispersion Strengthened (ODS) and TZM molybdenum have excellent creep resistance and strength at high temperatures in inert atmospheres. Fracture toughness and tensile testing was performed at temperatures between -1 50°C and 450°C to characterize 6.35 mm thick plate material of ODS and TZM molybdenum. A transition from low fracture toughness values (5.8 to 29.6 MPaJm) to values > 30 MPaJ...
