The temperature dependence of the short period oscillatory coupling in Fe/Cr/Fe(001) whisker trilayers, when analyzed in light of recent theory, provides strong
rroelectricity in lithium niobate (LiNbO 3 ) and lithium tantalate (LiTaO 3 ) crystals was discovered by Matthias and Remeika in 1949 [1]. They emerged as key
In concretes with water-to-cement (w/c) ratios below about 0.38, a portion of the cement particles will always remain unhydrated due to space limitations within

A summary of the current techniques for magnetic domain imaging of materials, including the practical aspects of each technique, the requirements on the sample
Free radicals such as OH, e aq - and H atoms react with DNA by addition to bases or abstraction of H atoms from the sugar moiety. Oxygen adds to base or sugar
Commonly used primary calibration techniques for the measurement of liquid and gas flows are described. The techniques described include: static gravimetric and

We study the adsorption behaviors of dodecahydroxylated-fullerene C60(OH)12 at the air-water interface. With the hydrophilicity imposed by the 12 hydroxy groups
This chapter reviews Scanning Electron Microscopy with Polarization Analysis (SEMPA), a technique for directly imaging the magnetic microstructure of surfaces
A review is given of the field of nanofabrication via atom optics. Discussion is presented of the fundamentals of atom manipulation and atom optics, with

C30 self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) have been prepared on zirconia, titania and two different silica gels by reacting C30 trichlorosilane with the humidified
I want to express some reservations concerning the revision to NFPA 72 Appendix B that is being considered based on an article by Christopher E. Marrion in Fire
Computer fire models for simulating compartment fire environments typically require a mathematical formulation that couples the thermal response of the gases
Results from computations of low strain rate, partially premixed methane/air counterflow flames are reported. The Oppdif computer code was used with GRI-Mech 2
This paper is one of a series on brand lofting and propagation. Here, spherical brand propagation in a constant ambient wind is addressed. Maximum propagation
This experimental study was performed to determine the effects of wood pyrolyzing in a high-temperature, vitiated compartment upper layer on the environment
Within the framework of HAZARD I, fire egress analysis is performed using the EXITT program. Yet another way to analyze fire egress employs newly developed
The "Refrigerants for the 21st Century" conferece was the third refrigerants conference jointly organized by the American Society of Heating, Refrigerating and
An analytical approach is described for performing seismic evaluation of welded steel moment frame buildings constructed prior to the 1994 Northridge earthquake
