A new single tooth winding layout for a single-phase induction motor with segmented stator
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2015 , Conference Paper)Machines with modular structure significantly simplify the manufacturing process, particularly the stator winding, and highly increase the slot fill factor. The non-overlapping concentrated winding, or single tooth winding, ... -
Adsorption of CO2 on Cu/SiO2 nano-catalyst: Experimental and theoretical study
( Elsevier B.V. , 2022 , Article)Copper-based silica is a promising catalyst for several reaction pathways for CO2 conversion to hydrocarbons. The activity of this catalyst in terms of conversion and product selectivity is affected by CO2 adsorption, ... -
Co oxidation at near-ambient temperatures over tio2-supported pd-cu catalysts: Promoting effect of pd-cu nanointerface and tio2 morphology
( MDPI AG , 2021 , Article)Significant improvement of the catalytic activity of palladium-based catalysts toward carbon monoxide (CO) oxidation reaction has been achieved through alloying and using different support materials. This work demonstrates ... -
Development of injectable PEGylated liposome encapsulating disulfiram for colorectal cancer treatment
( MDPI AG , 2019 , Article)Disulfiram (DS), an anti-alcoholism medicine, shows strong anti-cancer activity in the laboratory, but the application in clinics for anti-cancer therapy has been limited by its prompt metabolism. Conventional liposomes ... -
High strength, ductility, and electrical conductivity of in-situ consolidated nanocrystalline Cu-1%Nb
( Elsevier Ltd , 2018 , Article)Nanocrystalline metals—with grain sizes less than 100 nm— have strengths exceeding those of coarse-grained and even alloyed metals [1], [2]. A bulk nanocrystalline Cu-1%Nb alloy was synthesized by an in-situ consolidation ... -
