Direct evidence of atomic-scale structural fluctuations in catalyst nanoparticles

May 1, 2017
Author(s)
Pin Ann Lin, Jose Gomez-Ballesteros, Juan Burgos, Perla Balbuena, Bharath N. Natarajan, Renu Sharma
A heterogeneous catalyst usually works by letting the reactant adsorb onto its surface where the energies for specific bonds to dissociate and/or combine with other species (to form desired intermediate or final products) are lower. Rational catalyst

Dynamic Appliances Scheduling in Collaborative MicroGrids System

May 1, 2017
Author(s)
Hamid Gharavi, Hasnae Bilil
Abstract—In this paper a new approach which is based on a collaborative system of MicroGrids (MG’s), is proposed to enable household appliance scheduling. To achieve this, appliances are categorized into flexible and non-flexible Deferrable Loads (DL’s)

Energy Efficiency Challenges of 5G Small Cell Networks

May 1, 2017
Author(s)
Hamid Gharavi
The deployment of a large number of small cells poses new challenges to energy efficiency, which has often been ignored in fifth generation (5G) cellular networks. While massive multiple-input multiple outputs (MIMO) will reduce the transmission power at

Enzyme-Lignin Binding Variation in Commercial Cellulase Preparations Bind Differently to Dioxane Extracted Lignins

May 1, 2017
Author(s)
John M. Yarbrough, Ashutosh Mittal, Elisabeth Mansfield, Larry Taylor, Stephen R. Decker, Michael E. Himmel, Todd B. Vinzant
Commercial fungal cellulases used in biomass-to-biofuels processes can be grouped into three general classes: native, augmented, and engineered. Colorimetric assays for general glycosyl hydrolase activities showed distinct differences in enzyme binding to

Mechanistic Insights into the Formation of Porous Carbons from Gelatin

May 1, 2017
Author(s)
A. E. Danks, M. J. Hollamby, Boualem Hammouda, D. C. Fletcher, F. Johnston-Banks, S. E. Rogers, Z. Schnepp
Porous carbons are important for many applications. The biopolymer gelatin provides a simple route to functional carbon foams with77 multimodal porosity. In this paper, small angle neutron scattering is applied alongside other techniques to elucidate the

Metal-Insulator Transition Tuned by Magnetic Field in Bi 1.7 V 8 O 16 Hollandite

May 1, 2017
Author(s)
Amber M. Larson, Brandon Wilfong, Pouya Moetakef, Craig Brown, Peter Zavalij, Efrain E. Rodriguez
We describe a metal-insulator transition for a quasi-one dimensional system containing a mix of S = 1 and S=1/2 vanadium cations. Unlike all other known vanadates, Bi 1.7V 8O 16 displays non-spin-singlet formation upon entering the insulating state
