in this article, an analytical solution is developed to study the free vibration analysis offunctionally graded rectangular nanoplates. the governing equations of motion are derived basedon second order shear deformation theory using nonlocal elasticity theory. it is assumed that thematerial properties of nanoplate vary through the thickness according to the power lawdistribution. our numerical...

Ag nanoplates are the first generated by the reductant aniline in the presence of poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) at room temperature without stirring in the reaction process.

in this paper, on the basis of a new strain gradient elasticity theory, wave propagation in rectangular nanoplates by considering in-plane magnetic field is studied. this strain gradient theory has two gradient parameters and has the ability to compare with the nonlocal elasticity theory. from the best knowledge of author, it is the first time that this theory is used for investigating wave pro...

To date four OFAD (Optical Field Angle Distortion) calibrations have been performed on FGS3 in M35 and analyzed by the Astrometry Science Team. Two have been performed since the last HST (Hubble Space Telescope) Calibration Workshop. The ongoing Long Term Stability Tests have also been analyzed and incorporated into the calibration. A lateral color calibration has been derived from calibration ...

BACKGROUND Fibrinogen (Fg) has been considered essential for platelet aggregation. However, we recently demonstrated formation of occlusive thrombi in Fg-deficient mice and in mice doubly deficient for Fg and von Willebrand factor (Fg/VWF(-/-)). METHODS AND RESULTS Here we studied Fg/VWF-independent platelet aggregation in vitro and found no aggregation in citrated platelet-rich plasma of Fg/...

In this work, an attempt is done to apply the Kirchhoff plate theory find out vibrational analyses of a nanoplate incorporating surface irregularity effects. The effects on natural frequency vibration nanomaterials, especially for nanoplates, have not been investigated before, and most previous research carried regular nanoplates. Therefore, it must be emphasized that vibrations irregular are n...

Recent reports of the synthesis and assembly of faceted nanoplates with a wide range of shapes and composition motivates the possibility of a new class of two-dimensional materials with specific patterns targeted for a host of exciting properties. Yet, studies of how nanoplate shape controls their assembly - knowledge necessary for their inverse design from target structures - has been performe...

Time-resolved extinction spectroscopy is employed to study the reaction kinetics in the shape-conversion reaction involving halide ions (including Cl(-), Br(-) and I(-)) etching (sculpturing) silver nanoplates. A series of time-resolved extinction spectra are obtained during the in situ etching process and the evolution of surface plasmon resonance (SPR) of the silver nanoparticles is analyzed....

Well-crystallized (Y0.97-x Tb0.03Eu x )2(OH)5NO3·nH2O (x = 0-0.03) layered rare-earth hydroxide (LRH) nanoflakes of a pure high-hydration phase have been produced by autoclaving from the nitrate/NH4OH reaction system under the optimized conditions of 100 °C and pH ∼7.0. The flakes were then converted into (Y0.97-x Tb0.03Eu x )2O3 phosphor nanoplates with color-tunable photoluminescence. Detaile...
