Atmospheric dust particles have complex morphologies as observed in scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images. Yet, despite their non-spherical shape and the...
There exists a great need for an operando nanoscale characterization of evolution of surface composition and morphology during plasma-assisted processing. This...
A comparison between fatigue precracked and sharp-notched Charpy-type fracture toughness specimens will be presented for characterizing the elastic-plastic...
Markup technologies are very general purpose, as reflects their generality of conception. They become interesting as well as useful as they are applied to...
Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) is among the small number of renewable energy production systems that can provide base load capacity. Ammonia has long...
As we power through to the future, in-vehicle communications' reliance on speed is becoming a challenging predicament. This is mainly due to the ever-increasing...
As smart home technology is becoming more pervasive, smart home devices are increasingly being used by non-technical users who may have little understanding of...
Fences and mulch contribute to the spread of WUI fires. They act as both ignition targets and as sources that may themselves ignite nearby objects through...
