In the present scenario of a huge energy demand, dependency on fossil fuels only, certainly creates crisis in future especially for developing country. Although renewable resources of energy like solar energy is being ...

Our inspiration comes from Nell (Never Ending Language Learning), a computer program running at Carnegie Mellon University to extract structured information from unstructured web pages. We consider the problem of semi-supervised ...

A nano τ3 vacancy-ordered phase in the Al-Cu-Ni alloy system has been synthesized with a composition close to Al70Cu 15Ni15 by mechanical alloying a mixture of elemental powder in a high-energy ball mill by varying milling ...

The intent of performance-based earthquake engineering is to provide methods for designing, constructing and maintaining buildings, such that they are capable of providing predictable performance when affected by earthquakes. ...

Most of the real-world black-box optimization problems are associated with multiple non-linear as well as non-convex constraints, making them difficult to solve. In this work, we introduce a variant of the Covariance Matrix ...

A three-dimensional PIC simulation of a 35 GHz, 200 kW two cavity gyroklystron amplifier has been performed to study the electron beam and RF wave interaction behavior using a commercial PIC code 'MAGIC'. The electromagnetic ...

The structural and mechanical stability of quasicrystals are important issues due to their potential for possible applications at high temperatures and stresses. The aim of the present work is, therefore, to review the ...

Al-Cu-Mg alloys are extensively used for riveting applications in aerospace industries due to their relatively high shear strength coupled with high plasticity. The significant advantage of using V65 aluminum alloy ...

Today, most of the electricity generated comes from fossil fuels (coal, oil, and natural gas). These fossil fuels have finite reserves and will run out in the future. The negative effect of these fossil fuels is that they ...

Molecular simulations, such as Monte Carlo (MC) and molecular dynamics (MD) have been recently used for understanding the forces between colloidal nanoparticles that determine the dispersion and stability of nanoparticle ...
