Effect of the support on physicochemical properties and catalytic performance of cobalt based nano-catalysts in Fischer-Tropsch reaction
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
In this paper, comparative investigations of the effects of CNTs and ?-Al2O3 on the physicochemical properties and catalytic performances of Co based nano-catalyst during FTS have been presented. Catalysts were prepared ...
Fuzzy Logic-Based Model to Predict the Impact of Flow Rate and Turbidity on the Performance of Multimedia Filters
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2017 , Article)
This paper uses fuzzy logic-based models to predict and evaluate the performance of multimedia filters utilized in wastewater treatment. A fuzzy logic-based model is constructed and trained to predict the operating time ...
Effects of microstructures on hydrogen induced cracking of electrochemically hydrogenated double notched tensile sample of 4340 steel
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
Quantitative fractographic characteristics of 4340 steel is demonstrated for a grain size range of 10-100 ?m and hardness range of 41-52 HRC. Double-notched tensile samples were electrochemically charged in-situ with ...
Functionalization of zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticles and its effects on polysulfone-ZnO membranes
(
Taylor and Francis Inc.
, 2016 , Article)
Incorporation of nanoparticles in membranes has recently been reported to lead to enhancement of the membrane performance for various applications. In this study, ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized via sol-gel method using ...
Halloysite Nanotube as Multifunctional Component in Epoxy Protective Coating
(
American Chemical Society
, 2016 , Article)
The current research explores the use of halloysite nanotube as a multifunctional filler in epoxy coating for carbon steel. Epoxy monomer loaded halloysite was incorporated into epoxy coating along with amine hardener ...
Comparative study between the rotor flux oriented control and non-linear backstepping control of a five-phase induction motor drive - an experimental validation
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2016 , Article)
Multiphase variable speed electric drives are employed in applications where the reduction in the total power per phase and the highest level of overall system reliability is required. Most of the literature on five-phase ...
Erosion behaviour of API X100 pipeline steel at various impact angles and particle speeds
(
MDPI AG
, 2016 , Article)
Erosion is the gradual removal of material due to solid particle impingement and results in a failure of pipeline materials. In this study, a series of erosion tests were carried out to investigate the influence of particle ...
Effect of reinforcement concentration on the properties of hot extruded Al-Al2O3 composites synthesized through microwave sintering process
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2017 , Article)
In this study, Aluminum matrix composite reinforced with 5, 10 and 15 vol% Al2O3 particles were fabricated using microwave assisted rapid sintering technique followed by hot extrusion. The effect of concentration of Al2O3 ...
Effect of microwave sintering on the crystal domain and electrical properties of TiO2 nanoparticles
(
Springer Netherlands
, 2017 , Article)
We report the effect of microwaves sintering on the crystal domain and electrical properties of TiO2 nanoparticles. Commercially available TiO2 nanoparticles of 25 nm size were coated on ITO (indium tin oxide) substrates, ...
