Introduction: Active reflectarrays are promising solutions for reconfigurable radiating apertures at reasonable cost [1]. One of the main challenges is to design phase-shifting cells whose phase can be controlled dynamically over a 360° phase range with smooth frequency variations, low losses and reduced number of active elements. MEMS [2] or diodes [3] are usually used to dynamically control t...

Commercial purity aluminium at true strains 3 = 2∼ 5.5 was annealed in a wide temperature range (from room temperature to 220◦C), and the evolution of microstructure was characterized using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and electron backscattered diffraction (EBSD) techniques. Triple junctions in an ultrafine lamellar structure are classified into three categories based on the structur...

in this paper we will determine the multiple point manifolds of certain self-transverse immersions in euclidean spaces. following the triple points, these immersions have a double point self-intersection set which is the image of an immersion of a smooth 5-dimensional manifold, cobordant to dold manifold $v^5$ or a boundary. we will show there is an immersion of $s^7times p^2$ in $mathbb{r}^{13...

Abstract In the present study, nucleation of static recrystallization (SRX) in austenite after hot deformation is experimentally analyzed using a Ni-30 pct Fe model alloy. agreement with predictions by current models, rate exhibits strong peak, early during SRX. Whereas such an peak explained models saturation sites, this condition far from reached, even declines. addition, triple-junction and ...

We show that active, self-propelled particles that are connected together to form a single chain that is anchored at one end can produce the graceful beating motions of flagella. Changing the boundary condition from a clamp to a pivot at the anchor leads to steadily rotating tight coils. Strong noise in the system disrupts the regularity of the oscillations. We use a combination of detailed num...

In the present study, the effect of porosity on the cathode microstructure (50:50 wt. % LSM: YSZ) of a Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) has been examined. A 3-D finite element method for Mixed Ionic and Electronic Conducting Cathodes (MIEC) is presented to study the effects of porosity on cell performance. Each microstructure was realized using the Monte Carlo approach with the isotropic type of gr...

The two-dimensional (2D) surface-directed self-assembly of dibenzonitrile diacetylene (DBDA) on Ag(111) under ultrahigh vacuum (UHV) conditions was investigated by combining scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and theoretical simulations based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The molecule consists of two benzonitrile groups (-C6H4-C[triple...
