A multiphase nanostructured ZrCu-base bulk alloy which showed a unique microstructure consisting of sub-micrometer scale Zr₂Cu solid solution, nano-sized twinned plate-like ZrCu martensite (ZrCu (M)), and retained ZrCu (B2) austenite was fabricated by copper mold casting. The observation of periodic morphology evolution on the fracture surface of the multiphase nanostructured ZrCu-base alloys h...

The interest in multiphase machines for high performance applications has been growing in recent years due to their potential advantages over three-phase machines. One of the possibilities of taking advantage of the additional degrees of freedom that exist in multiphase machines is the series connection of several multiphase machines, with the supply coming from a single multiphase inverter. Th...

a convenient liquid chromatographic-single quadrupole mass spectrometric (lc-ms) method was developed and validated for dexchlorpheniramine maleate (inn name: chlorphenamine) determination in human plasma. the need for just a single liquid-liquid extraction with ethyl acetate and being highly sensitive were the advantages of this method. the linearity was also excellent over the range of 1 to 1...

We present the first experimental microwave realization of the one-dimensional Dirac oscillator, a paradigm in exactly solvable relativistic systems. The experiment relies on a relation of the Dirac oscillator to a corresponding tight-binding system. This tight-binding system is implemented as a microwave system by a chain of coupled dielectric disks, where the coupling is evanescent and can be...

An analysis of phase noise in differential cross-coupled tuned tank voltage controlled oscillators is presented. The effect of active device noise sources as well as the noise due to the passive elements are taken into account. The predictions are in good agreement with the measurements for different tail currents and supply voltages. The effect of the complementary cross-coupled pair is analyz...

This paper presents the high-output-impedance current-mode multiphase sinusoidal oscillators (MSO) using voltage differencing current conveyor (VDCC)-based lossy integrators, which consist of one VDCC, grounded capacitor, and two resistors. The proposed oscillator can provide an odd-phase even-phase system without use additional amplifier. frequency oscillation (FO) is electronically tuned via ...

The simultaneous flow of immiscible fluids in porous media occurs in a wide variety of applications. The equations governing these flows are inherently nonlinear, and the geometries and material properties characterizing many problems in petroleum and groundwater engineering can be quite irregular. As a result, numerical simulation often offers the only viable approach to the mathematical model...

The Mumford-Shah model has been one of the most powerful models in image segmentation and denoising. The optimization of the multiphase Mumford-Shah energy functional has been performed using level sets methods that optimize the Mumford-Shah energy by evolving the level sets via the gradient descent. These methods are very slow and prone to getting stuck in local optima due to the use of the gr...

This paper provides a full numerical tool set for modeling and predicting an effective apparent dielectric constant of multiphase microporous media, which includes a multiparameter random generation-growth algorithm for generating microstructures of multiphase porous media and a lattice Boltzmann solver for the electric potential transport equations through porous structures. After being valida...
