in  this paper  thin  films of  tin sulfide (sns) were deposited on  the glass substrates using spray pyrolysis method with the substrate temperatures in the range of 400–600℃, keeping the other deposition parameters constant. in  this work  the characteristic of sns  thin  films  investigated. the xrd pattern and optical transmittance of thin films also are discussed. with the change in concen...

a mathematical model was developed to predict the effects of wind speed, light, ph, temperature, dissolved carbon dioxide and chemical oxygen demand (cod) on dissolved oxygen (do) in fish ponds. the effects of organic feeds, aeration and fish activity were added to the model developed by kayombo et al. for waste stabilization ponds (ecological modeling 127(2000): 21-31) to reflect the situat...

aluminum alloys such as al 5083 have primary potential for lightweight structural application in automotive and aerospace industries. this paper addresses the mechanical and tribological properties and corrosion resistance of chromium nitride coatings deposited on al 5083 that can be used for development of applications of aluminum 5083 alloy. the crn coatings of 1 μm thickness were deposited b...

On the atomic scale, Molecular Dynamic (MD) Simulation of Nano Al cluster impact on Al (100) substrate surface has been carried out for energies of 1-20 eV/atom to understand quantitatively the interaction mechanisms between the cluster atoms and the substrate atoms. The many body Embedded Atom Method (EAM) was used in this simulation. We investigated the maximum substrate temperature Tmax  and...

Cadmium oxide thin films were fabricated on glass substrates by a simplified and low cost spray pyrolysis technique at different substrate temperatures. The X-ray diffraction study showed that irrespective of substrate temperature all the films exhibits a preferential orientation along the (1 1 1) plane. The values of crystallite size were found to be in the range 20.72 – 29.6 nm. The perce...

copper films (250 nm) deposited on glass substrates, at different substrate temperatures. their optical properties were measured by ellipsometery (single wavelength of 589.3 nm) and spectrophotometery in the spectral range of 200–2600 nm. kramers kronig method was used for the analysis of the reflectivity curves of cu films to obtain the optical constants of the films, while ellipsometery measu...

Microcasting Shape-Deposition-Manufacturing is an approach to Solid-Freeform-Fabrication (SFF) process which is a novel method for rapid automated manufacturing of near-net-shape multi-material parts with complex geometries. By this method, objects are made by sequentially depositing molten metal droplets on a substrate and shaping by a CNC tool, layer by layer. Important issues are concerned w...

In this study, solid state fermentation (SSF) was carried out to produce single cell protein (SCP) from sugarcane bagasse using Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The SSF experiment were performed in a tray bioreactor. The influence of several parameters including extraction buffer, initial moisture content of substrate, fermentation time, relative humidity in bioreactor, the bioreactor temperature and ...

slurries of rice-straw cellulose (obtained by delignification and removal of hemicelluloses from the powdered raw material) were subjected to ultrasonic waves at different intensities for various times (constant temperature). susceptibility of the samples to cellulose-hydrolysis increased initially with pretreatment time, reaching a maximum or a constant level thereafter. maximum glucose yield ...
