postnatal studies of bats (pipistrellus kuhlii and miniopterus schreibersii) & histomorphology and histochemistry studies of organs and diseases of (neurergus microspilotus and n. kaiseri)

1. to determine whether difference in birth body mass influenced growth performance in pipistrellus kuhlii we studied a total of 12 captive-born neonates. bats were assigned to two body mass groups: light birth body mass (lbw: 0.89 ± 0.05, n=8) and heavy birth body mass (hbw: 1.35 ± 0.08, n=4). heavier body mass at birth was associated with rapid postnatal growth (body mass and forearm length) ...

Fabrication and inspection of C/Cf-ZrB2-ZrC-SiC and C/Cf-ZrB2-SiC composite parts resistant to ablation by pressureless sintering method

In this research, the aim is to achieve strong and ablation-resistant composite parts C / Cf-ZrB2-ZrC-SiC and C / Cf-ZrB2-SiC by non-pressure sintering method. C / Cf-ZrB2-SiC samples were prepared using synthesized ZrB2 and SiC powders between layers of resin-impregnated carbon fabric. After pressing with pressure 5 times at 1600 وC and heat treatment for 2 hours in a controlled atmosphere fur...

The ZrO2 Formation in ZrB2/SiC Composite Irradiated by Laser

In order to clearly understand the details of ZrO₂ formation during ablation, high intensity continuous laser was chosen to irradiate ZrB₂/SiC. The results reveal that there are two different modes of ZrO₂ formation depending on whether liquid SiO₂ is present. When liquid SiO₂ is present, ZrO₂ generated by the oxidation of ZrB₂ is firstly dissolved into SiO₂. Then, ZrO₂ will precipitate again, ...

Solar driven energy conversion applications based on 3C-SiC

There is a strong and growing worldwide research on exploring renewable energy resources. Solar energy is the most abundant, inexhaustible and clean energy source, but there are profound material challenges to capture, convert and store solar energy. In this work, we explore 3C-SiC as an attractive material towards solar-driven energy conversion applications: (i) Boron doped 3C-SiC as candidate...
