A room temperature hybrid electrolyte based lithium-sulfur cell was successfully cycled with an excellent coulombic efficiency of 100%. The initial discharge specific capacities of up to 1528 mA h g(-1), 1386 mA h g(-1) and 1341 mA h g(-1), respectively, at C/20, C/5 and C/2 rates were realized and remained at 720 mA h g(-1) after 40 cycles at the C/5 rate.

OBJECTIVE To compare the anti-hypertensive effects of both remifentanil and esmolol infusion. METHODS This prospective comparative study was conducted on 20 patients (10 patients in each group), in the Neurosurgical Theater of Kasr Elaini Hospital, Cairo, Egypt from 2006 to 2008. The patients were divided into 2 equal groups. In group one, remifentanil was used as a bolus of one ug/kg intrave...

this study was undertaken to investigate the feasibility of treating industrial wastewater using soil and plant system. nine cylindrical plastic-lysimeters (60 cm diameter and 100 cm height) equipped with a drain pipe at the bottom were filled by granular sandy-loam soil. sunflower, oat and fescue were planted each in three lysimeters, in order to investigate the effectiveness of plants in lead...

In this paper, multi-objective optimization of railway wheel web profile using bidirectional evolutionary structural optimization (BESO) algorithm is investigated. Using a finite element software, static analysis of the wheel based on a standard load case, and its modal analysis for finding the fundamental natural frequency is performed. The von Mises stress and critical frequency as the proble...
