The behavior of a hollow cathode operated within an ion thruster discharge chamber is characterized using a remotely located, charged-particle analyzer. A very complex structure of the ion energy distribution function is revealed that is in general agreement with previous observations from many earlier works. Observations, which are in general agreement with the literature, include the measurem...

A unique way to fabricate hollow microspheres by using an amphiphilic azo homopolymer (BP-AZ-CA) and photoinduced deformation behavior of the hollow structures in the solid state are reported.

In this paper torsion of hollow Poroelastic shaft with Elliptical section is developed. Using the boundary equation scheme. It looks for a stress function where satisfied Poisson equation and vanishes on boundary. It also analyzed stress function and warping displacement for the hollow elliptical section in Poroelastic shaft. At the end, the result of elastic and poroelastic shaft in warping di...

a bioreactor equipped with hollow fiber microfiltration membranes was applied for wastewater treatment. removal of chemical oxygen demand (cod) and biochemical oxygen demand (bod5) was investigated. the experimental setup consisted of influent and effluent tanks, and membrane modules using polyvinyl di–fluoride (pvdf) hollow fibers. the operation program included suction and backwash steps whic...

Over the last decade versatile, electrostatic layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly methods involving polyelectrolytes have been widely used in the preparation of hollow capsules. These capsules can be fabricated by the stepwise adsorption of polyelectrolytes with charges that are opposite from their aqueous media onto templating cores, especially organic or inorganic particles and biopolymers, followe...

In this article, the magneto-thermo-elastic problem of exponentially graded material (EGM) hollow rotating disk placed in uniform magnetic and temperature fields is considered. Exact solutions for stresses and perturbations of the magnetic field vector in EGM hollow rotating disk are determined using the infinitesimal theory of magneto-thermo-elasticity under plane stress. The material properti...

Polymeric micelles with core-shell-corona architecture have been found to be the efficient colloidal templates for synthesis of periodic organosilica hollow nanospheres over a broad pH range from acidic to alkaline media. In alkaline medium, poly (styrene-b-[3-(methacryloylamino)propyl] trimethylammonium chloride-b-ethylene oxide) (PS-PMAPTAC-PEO) micelles yield benzene-silica hollow nanosphere...

In the last decade, hollow materials have gained increasing attention as a special class of materials compared with their solid counterparts owing to their unique properties such as their low density, large specific surface area, stability, surface permeability, and hollow structure. These features make them important from both a scientific and technological point of view. Owing to their unique...

Species in many ecosystems are facing declines of key resources. If we are to understand and predict the effects of resource loss on natural populations, we need to understand whether and how the way animals use resources changes under resource decline. We investigated how the abundance of arboreal marsupials varies in response to a critical resource, hollow-bearing trees. Principally, we asked...
