The Future Of Research On The Shroud
نویسنده
چکیده
The future of research on the Shroud is outlined starting from the present knowledge of it, in particular from the results of the analyses made in 1978 by the STURP scientists and from the results of radiocarbon dating in 1988. Particular reference is made to the most useful techniques for studying the chemical, physical and biological characteristics of the most important typical sites of the Shroud: the cloth, the double image of a human body and the blood stains. A new data collection is proposed in order to significantly develop the research; it would give scientists the possibility to have at their disposal new information for making concrete progress in acquiring knowledge about the characteristics of the cloth and of the image. Several methodologies are proposed like: XRF (X-ray fluorescence), LIBS (Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy), TOFSIMS (Time-of-flight secondary-ion mass spectrometry), ICP-MS (Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry), UV-VIS (Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy), RAMAN spectroscopy, NMR (Nuclear magnetic resonance), HPLC-MS (High-performance liquid chromatography mass spectroscopy), HPLC-IR (High-performance liquid chromatography infrared), GC-MS (Gas chromatography mass spectroscopy), etc.

متن کاملطراحی و ساخت یک غلاف جهت افزایش سرعت سیال با قابلیت استفاده برای توربینهای آبی محوری
Existence of the coasts in the north and south of Iran cause to create potential areas to produce electricity by tidal and wave energies. Therefore, increase of fluid velocity is required to exploit these areas. A new generation of turbines is created by designing and building a shroud to increase fluid velocity which it increases kinetic energy of flow and generates more electricity at coastli...

Existence of coastal regions in Iran has made this country a potential area to produce hydro-electric. Ducted or shrouded turbines generate more output power by increasing fluid velocity; therefore, they turn potential areas to actual areas to produce electricity. The purpose of this study is to investigate effects of a shroud with airfoil cross-section form on upwind and downwind streams which...
