An actuator is a device that converts input energy into mechanical energy. According to various types of input energy, various actuators have been advanced. Displacement in the electromagnetic, hydraulic and pneumatic actuators achieve by moving a piston via electromagnetic force or pressure, however the piezoelectric actuator (piezoceramic plates) displace directly. Therefore, accuracy and spe...

the thermal degradation of polyethylene (pe) was carried out in the absence and presence ofcatalystes x-zeolite and silica-alumina at different temperatures. the optimum pe/catalysisratio was 0.25:0.05 g/g, which produced highest degradation value. pe and pe/catalysis werecharacterized by thermogravimetric analysis. the thermal degradation properties of polymerhave been studied by infrared spec...

in many hydroelectric dams, when the inflows are greater than the demand for energy, a portion of the water that could be used to generate electricity is diverted to the spillway and literally wasted. this energy,designated as “spilled turbinable energy”, could be used advantageously to generate other products or an energy vector that could be stored for later use, since in these situations the...

Introduction: Radiation therapy is one of the major modalities that have long been used in cancer treatment. Radiotherapy is often accompanied by early and late toxicity and side effects and narrow therapeutic window. Similarity in radiation absorption properties of tumors and neighboring healthy tissues is often the reason for low specificity of radiation therapy. Development ...

The structural and optical characterization of bulk GeO2-PbO glasses was the goal of this study. In this regard, six different (100-x)GeO2‌-xPbO (15<x<45) glasses were prepared by conventional melt quenching technique between two steel sheets. The produced samples were characterized using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and UV-Vis s...
