Response Analysis of HTPB Propellant under Extreme Low Temperature Conditions

HTPB-Polyurethane: A Versatile Fuel Binder for Composite Solid Propellant

Fast temperature spectrometer for samples under extreme conditions.

We have developed a multi-wavelength Fast Temperature Readout (FasTeR) spectrometer to capture a sample's transient temperature fluctuations, and reduce uncertainties in melting temperature determination. Without sacrificing accuracy, FasTeR features a fast readout rate (about 100 Hz), high sensitivity, large dynamic range, and a well-constrained focus. Complimenting a charge-coupled device spe...

Mooring Line Reliability Analysis of Single Point Mooring (SPM) System under Extreme Wave and Current Conditions

Single Point Mooring (SPM) is a type of offshore facility that is used for the loading and unloading of oil and gas tankers in the sea. In Iran, it is briefly called “floating buoy”. The present study discussed floating type, fixed to the seabed with mooring chain. The mooring chain of SPM, which is considered one of the important parameters of its design, will be evaluated with reg...

Optical Metrology under Extreme Conditions

Optical metrology provides full field, noncontact, precise measurement of various physical parameters of materials, structures, and devices. These properties include kinematic parameters (displacement, velocity, and acceleration), deformation parameters (strains, curvature, and twist), surface parameters (shape and roughness), and mechanical properties of materials (Young’s modulus, Poisson’s r...

seed proteome analysis of tall wheatgrass under drought and low temperature conditions

tall wheatgrass (agropyronelongatum) is native to iran and is used in a wide area of rangelands and also used in drylandseeding program. this plant produces green and dry fodder and has a great importance in protecting drylands from water and wind erosion.seed proteome analysis was conducted under three conditions, namley, optimum (20 °c and zero water potential), drought conditions (20 °c and ...
