The problem of energy storage and its continuous delivery on demand needs new effective solutions. Supercapacitors are viewed as essential devices for solving this problem since they can quickly provide high power basically countless number of times. The performance of supercapacitors is mostly dependent on the properties of electrode materials used for electrostatic charge accumulation, i.e. e...

Video servers store digitized, compressed continuous media information on high-capacity secondary or tertiary storage [6]. The secondary storage devices allow random accessible and provide short seek times compared to tertiary storage. Video server design differs significantly from that of traditional data storage servers due to the large size of the objects stored and the real-time requirement...

High performance carbonized bamboo fibers were synthesized for a wide range of temperature dependent energy storage applications. The structural and electrochemical properties of the carbonized bamboo fibers were studied for flexible supercapacitor applications. The galvanostatic charge-discharge studies on carbonized fibers exhibited specific capacity of ~510F/g at 0.4 A/g with energy density ...

A 32-kilodalton vegetative storage protein, found in Salix microstachya Turz. bark during the overwintering period, was purified and characterized using several polyacrylamide gel electrophoretic procedures. Solubility characteristics and amino acid analyses were also performed. The protein is water soluble, is glycosylated, has no disulfide-bonded subunits, but is composed of a family of isoel...

This paper analyzes the long-term response of unlined energy storage located at shallow depth to improve the distance between a wind farm and storage. The numerical approach follows the hybrid scheme that combined a mechanical constitutive model to extract stress and strains at the first cycle and polynomial-type strain accumulation functions to track the progressive plastic deformation. In par...

Thermochemical energy storage (TcES) is a promising technology for advanced storage. This study investigated the reaction of magnesium chloride (MgCl2) and ammonia (NH3) as TcES material at approximately 100°C. Activation through NH3 absorption desorption was confirmed to increase MgCl2 surface area from 2.60 73.3 m2 g−1 create mesopores. Superior reactivity demonstrated with maximum rate 0.019...

Graphene is an important material for sensing and energy storage applications. Since the vast majority of sensing and energy storage chemical and electrochemical systems require bulk quantities of graphene, thermally reduced graphene oxide (TRGO) is commonly employed instead of pristine graphene. The sp(2) planar structure of TRGO is heavily damaged, consisting of a very short sp(2) crystallite...

Sparse matrix vector multiplication (SpMxV) is often one of the core components of many scientific applications. Many authors have proposed methods for its data distribution in distributed memory multiprocessors. We can classify these into four groups: Scatter, D-Way Strip, Recursive and Miscellaneous. In this work we propose a new method (Multiple Recursive Decomposition (MRD)), which partitio...
