We present an approach employed to achieve a level of rigor which improves, if not ultimately guarantees - given no optionality, correct data exchange. In...
For nearly forty years, the Galster parametrization has successfully fit existing data for the neutron electric form factor, GEn,vs. the square of the four...
Very large thermal conductivity enhancement has been reported in colloidal suspensions of solid nanoparticles (i.e., nanofluids) and recently also in oil-in...
Interest in the domestic production of all fuels, sparked by the high cost of petroleum crude oil, has led to consideration of fluids to replace or extend...
