The CaO-½Gd2O3-CoOz system prepared at 885 °C in air consists of two thermoelectric calcium cobaltate compounds, namely, the 2D thermoelectric oxide solid...
A Heron quadrilateral is a cyclic quadrilateral with rational area. In this work, we establish a correspondence between Heron quadrilaterals and a family of...
"Microanalysis" in the parlance of the Microanalysis Society (MAS) refers to spatially-resolved elemental and molecular analysis performed at the micrometer to...
Residential fire casualty risk is a function of an individuals exposure risk and vulnerability. The previous literature focuses on measuring correlations...
