The study of the propagation of light is a fascinating fields of research that is interesting in itself because it gives rise to beautiful and complex mathematical structures. Furthermore, understanding the propagation of light is crucial in applications such as lasers and optical fibers. In this proposal I will focus on a model that has been proven to be quite successful in describing the prop...

Nanotechnology has been advanced since the last decades. Among all nanomaterials that have been developed, nanosilver is the most frequently used nanoparticles. Its release into natural water bodies is inevitable due to its broad applications. Nanosilver (nAg) was prepared via Tollens method using. The morphology, size distribution and average size of the obtained nAg was characterized using Tr...

Graphene oxide was prepared using modified Hummers method. Stable ethylene-glycol nanofluids containing graphene oxide nanosheets were provided. Nd: YAG pulsed laser was applied to prepare reduced nanofluids. Experimental results revealed that thermal conductivity of the nanofluids is increased with increasing the concentration of graphene oxide (GO) in ethylene glycol. The enhancement ratio of...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS The volume of tree stems is made up of three components: solid wood, gas and water. These components have important consequences for the construction costs, strength and stability of trees. Here, the importance of stem components for sapling growth and survival in the field was investigated, and then these stem components were related to two important life history axes of va...

the nanostructured anatase tio2 with high thermal stability was prepared by polymeric sol-gel method without any additives. the particle size distribution of polymeric titania sol was determined by dynamic light scattering (dls). then properties of obtained titania were investigated by tg-dta, xrd, fesem and tem. also, the decolorization capability of resultant anatase was evaluated using methy...
