Modification of Pd/CeO2 catalyst by Atomic Layer Deposition of ZrO2
( Elsevier , 2016 , Article)Modification of a 1 wt% Pd/CeO2 catalyst by Atomic Layer Deposition of thin ZrO2 films was studied. Calcination of the unmodified Pd/CeO2, prepared by precipitation of aqueous Ce(NO3)3 solutions, with Pd added by impregnation, ... -
Modification of polyethylene by RF plasma in different/mixture gases
( MDPI AG , 2019 , Article)Herein, low-density polyethylene (LDPE) films were treated using radio-frequency plasma discharge in the presence of air, nitrogen, oxygen, argon, and their mixtures to introduce new chemical functionalities. The surface ... -
A Modification to Enhance the Survival of the Island FDMA Flap by Adding a Skin Bridge
( national library of medicine , 2021 , Article)Background: Distal thumb injuries are common in high construction load regions, and it is a challenging task for the plastic surgeon to find the optimum choice that preserves thumb length and provides a sensory substitute ... -
Modified Alamouti decoding for highly selective channels for LTE systems
( IEEE , 2012 , Conference Paper)In this contribution, we propose an improvement of Alamouti coding for equalization of space-time block code multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) over highly-selective ... -
Modified halloysite nanotubes decorated with Ceria for synergistic corrosion inhibition of Polyolefin based smart composite coatings
( Elsevier , 2023 , Article)The deteriorating effect of corrosion can be controlled by applying suitable polymeric-based coatings. In this work, polyolefin based smart composite coatings containing modified halloysite nanotubes decorated with ceria ... -
The modified homotopy perturbation method for solving strongly nonlinear oscillators
( Elsevier , 2009 , Article)In this paper we propose a reliable algorithm for the solution of nonlinear oscillators. Our algorithm is based upon the homotopy perturbation method (HPM), Laplace transforms, and Padé approximants. This modified homotopy ... -
Modified modulation scheme for photovoltaic fed grid-connected three-phase boost inverter
( IEEE , 2013 , Conference Paper)Transformer-less photovoltaic (PV) inverters are the major functional units of modern grid-connected PV energy production systems. In general, two power conversion stages are required when low-voltage unregulated photovoltaic ... -
