Curls and curves of a shell interweave its various strain modes and link them together. This interactional behavior has yet frustrated all attempts for the construction of shell templates, which needs for an individual element test in traditional approaches. Such a test fails to work for shell elements and must be reconstructed. In this paper, it is tried to study shell interactional behavior a...

Two-color emissive 0D–2D quantum-dot quantum-well (QD-QW) heteronanocrystals has created profound research activities. First multicolor emission in the visible region been reported by Peng and co-workers CdSe(core)–ZnS(barrier)-CdSe(shell) (core-barrier-shell) based heteronanostructures where both CdSe phases (core shell) are tuneable as well. Owing to this enhanced functionality, QD-QW systems...

We report a novel biochemical method based on the sacrificial hydrogen strategy to synthesize bimetallic gold (Au)-palladium (Pd) nanoparticles (NPs) with a core/shell configuration. The ability of Escherichia coli cells supplied with H(2) as electron donor to rapidly precipitate Pd(II) ions from solution is used to promote the reduction of soluble Au(III). Pre-coating cells with Pd(0) (bioPd) ...

Like the shell model for atoms, which identifies which elements are volatile and which are inert, the nuclear shell model has guided our understanding of nuclear properties. Certain “magic number” landmarks associated with “inert” nuclei have dominated the nuclear landscape for over 50 years. As the more exotic neutronrich nuclei are being studied, however, one finds that nuclear properties ass...

A microwave-assisted synthetic procedure is presented for the preparation of low-toxic Mn:ZnSe/ZnS core/shell nanocrystals to label antibodies for selective detection of human immunoglobulin G (IgG) based on fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) between the Mn:ZnSe/ZnS and Au nanoparticles (AuNPs).

Bimetallic gold-silver core-shell nanoparticles were prepared by chemical reduction in aqueous solution, following a method that was friendly to the environment, allowing us to use this for medicinal purposes. Gold nanoparticles were synthesized, and silver cations were then reduced on the nanoparticles. Using the optical properties of metallic nanoparticles, surface plasmon resonance was deter...

background: multifunctional core-shell magnetic nanocomposite particles with tunable characteristics have been paid much attention for biomedical applications in recent years. a rational design and suitable preparation method must be employed to be able to exploit attractive properties of magnetic nanocomposite particles.objectives: herein, we report on a simple approach for the synthesis of ma...

in this study, thermo-mechanical nonlinear vibration of a polyethylene (pe) cylindrical shell embedded in an elastic foundation was investigated. the shell is reinforced by armchair carbon nanotubes (cnts) where characteristics of the equivalent composite being determined using mori-tanaka model. the elastic medium is simulated using the spring constant of the winkler-type,  . employing nonline...

in the present study, vibration of cylindrical laminates with different layers and angles were studied. in order to actuate and polarize in radial direction, a piezoelectric layer was located at outer surface of composite shell. laminates were assumed long enough so that plane strain state analysis in 2d can be used properly. in order to satisfy the boundary conditions, variables in terms of fo...
