Complicated environmental problems inevitably arise when technology advances. One major environmental problem is the presence of electromagnetic radiation. Long-term exposure to electromagnetic radiation can damage people’s health in many ways. Therefore, this study proposes producing composite boards with electromagnetic shielding effectiveness and thermal insulation by utilizing the structure...

Laser ablation involves heating, evaporation of target material and ionization of vapor to form plasma plume surrounding the ablation spot. A self consistent model, that combines target heating, evaporation, ionization, shielding and expansion of plume, is employed to obtain ablation parameters. The results showed good agreement with experiments. For a given laser energy fluence and target mate...

We study the relationship between precipitate morphology and superconductivity in KxFe1.6+ySe2 single crystals grown by self-flux method. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) measurements revealed that the superconducting phase forms a network in the samples quenched above iron vacancy order-disorder transition temperature Ts, whereas it aggregates into micrometer-sized rectangular bars and align...

The response of collisionless plasmas to an applied potential can differ from classic Debye shielding, and when the potential is rapidly applied ~‘‘instantaneous shielding’’!, the shielding can differ from when it is slowly applied ~‘‘adiabatic shielding’’!. Experiments demonstrate that when a test potential well is applied to a one-dimensional pure-electron plasma, instantaneous and adiabatic ...

This work deals with the design of new shielding materials for the protection of electrical devices. Since there are many different requirements for modern materials, we have chosen a multi-objective approach to this problem. As material under consideration we chose conducting polymer composites due to their excellent electromagnetic properties in the microwave band and their high potential for...

A novel transparent Co0.2Fe2.8O4@SiO2-polyetheretherketone hybrid material is prepared for electromagnetic interference shielding via in situ sol-gel process. 20% amino-functionalized polyetheretherketone (AFPEEK), containing trifluoromethyl units with excellent solubility is designed and synthesized to improve the stability and mechanical properties of Co0.2Fe2.8O4@SiO2 nanoparticles. The hydr...

This study investigates the characteristics of prompt radiation field and some issues of induced activities due to the operation of the Taiwan Photon Source (TPS). Starting from assumed beam loss scenarios and using the FLUKA Monte Carlo simulations, energy spectra and dose distributions of the prompt radiation field for its shielding design were studied. Radiation environment around the penetr...

Nuclear spin relaxation provides detailed dynamical information on molecular systems and materials. Here, first-principles modeling of the chemical shift anisotropy (CSA) relaxation time for the prototypic monoatomic (129)Xe gas is carried out, both complementing and predicting the results of NMR measurements. Our approach is based on molecular dynamics simulations combined with pre-parametrize...

The design of the cavity and shielding system of the Prometheus reactors was undertaken by UCLA in conjunction with an IFE conceptual reactor study led by McDonnell Douglas. A wetted wall by a thin lead film was used as part of the first wall system (FWS) designated to protect the cavity against the microexplosions. The FWS is attached to the blanket/reflector/plena (B/R/P) system. For low acti...
