Adaptive VN/Ag nanocomposite coatings with lubricious behavior from 25 to 1000 °c
(2010)A two-phase nanocomposite coating that consists of inclusions of silver in a vanadium nitride matrix (VN/Ag) was investigated as a potential adaptive coating with a reduced friction coefficient from 25 to 1000 °C. This ...

Comparative study of La-Sr-Fe-O perovskite-type oxides prepared by ceramic and surfactant methods over the CH4 and H2 lean-deNOx
(2009)Mixed oxides of the general formula La0.8Sr0.2FeO3-x were prepared by ceramic and surfactant methods and tested towards the NO/H2/O2 and NO/CH4/O2 lean-deNOx reactions in the 200-450 °C range. The materials were characterized ...

The phenol steam reforming reaction towards H2 production on natural calcite
(2009)The steam reforming of phenol towards H2 production was studied in the 650-800 °C range over a natural pre-calcined (air, 850 °C) calcite material. The effects of reaction temperature, water, hydrogen, and carbon dioxide ...

Surface failure detection for an F/A-18 aircraft using neural networks and fuzzy logic
(IEEE, 1994)In this paper we consider the problem of detecting control surface failures of a high performance aircraft. The detection model is developed using a linear, six degree of freedom dynamic model of an F/A-18 aircraft. The ...

Time-dependent compressible extrudate-swell problem with slip at the wall
(1994)We solve the time-dependent compressible Newtonian extrudate-swell problem with slip at the wall, in an attempt to simulate the stick-slip extrusion instability. An arbitrary nonlinear slip model relating the shear stress ...
