In this paper, the effect of ocean-land mixed propagation path on the lightning performance of grounding rods is investigated. This effect is focused on two problems. The first is extracting exact equivalent circuit of grounding rods in the presence of oceans. The equivalent circuit can be used in transient analysis of power systems in the neighboring oceans. In the second one, this effect on t...

new hetero-binuclear hg-cu schiff base complexes were prepared by reaction of 2,2'-[1,1'-(2,2-‎dimethylpropane-1,3-diyldinitrilo)-diethyldyne]diphenolato}copper(ii) (cul1) and 6,6'-x-2,2'-[(2,2-‎dimethylpropane-1,3-diyl)bis(nitrilomethanylylidene)]diphenolato copper(ii) [(x = ethoxy (cul2) and ‎methoxy (cul3)], with hgcl2 to give [cu(l1)hgcl2] (1), [cu(l2)hgcl2] (2), and [cu...

This article gives you proof that bimetallic transition metal clusters with the difference in electronegativity are better catalysts than monoatomic one. To prove this fact, a study of ethylene adsorption on bimetallic clusters vanadium-nickel VnNim (2≤n+m≤6) has been demonstrated. Our result shows that hardness has a quite good linear correlation with the non-Lewis of VnNi (n=1-5) cluster (R2=...

Chromium-vanadium (Cr-V) bimetallic catalysts are prepared by the introduction of vanadium into the Phillips catalyst which is one of the most significant industrial ethylene polymerization catalysts for tuning the Phillips catalyst performances and improving polyethylene properties. In the present work, titanium species were introduced into the fluorine-modified chromium-vanadium bimetallic ca...

Dealloyed Pt core-shell nanoparticles constitute the most active and stable bimetallic oxygen reduction catalysts for low-temperature fuel cells. Here, we review recent advances on their preparation, structural characterization, and electrocatalytic performance. Starting with bimetallic metal overlayer model systems, for which we illustrate fundamental principles of the ORR activity enhancement...

We have prepared supported gold, palladium and gold–palladium bimetallic catalysts by the physical mixing of the acetate salts of the metals followed by a simple heat treatment. The use of the acetates as the metal precursor eliminates chloride from the catalyst preparation step. Extensive characterisation shows the formation of bimetallic alloy particles. These catalysts are extremely active f...

In this study, effects of lacing rods location on natural frequencies of last stage of a Steam Turbine Blades (STBs) have been investigated. STBs are critical and important elements in a turbine as well as power plants. One of the most important parameters in turbine blades is lacing rods location. In this paper, first, a three dimensional (3D) scan was used to produce the geometrical model of ...
