in this study we investigate the effect of atoms such as b, n, ge and sn on the optical and the electrical properties of capped (5, 0) zigzag carbon nanotube, using dft calculation method. these elements were attached to the one end of the carbon nanotube. we considered four different structure designs as possible candidates for a p-n junction device. the electrical properties of these structur...

The finite element model of the seven connection heads an automotive body in white is established, and stiffness calculation carried out by taking lower joint B pillar as example. Nine values were obtained for each branch, which can be written a 3 × symmetric matrix. front back bending stiffness, torsional internal external are with decoupling method. Based on this, unrigid rigid joints three r...

h6-benzne, h6-garphyne) was studied with MPW1PW91 quantum chemical computations. Quantumtheory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) was applied to elucidate these complexes Cr-CO bonds. Theellipticity (e) and h values of the Cr-CO bonds were calculated. The amount of pp-dp back-donation ofCr-CO bonds were illustrated by calculation of the magnitude of the quadrupole polarization of c...

In natural gas treatment, the removal of CO2 and H2S in acid gases is a critical concern. There are various purification technologies that can be used for the removal of acid gas impurities. Absorption of acid gas into amines is one preferred method in gas industries. In the past, single amines was used, but recently in order to improve absorption performance, mixed amines with different solubi...

The authors explored an age-specific back-calculation approach to estimating long-term trends in the incidence and prevalence of opiate use/injecting drug use (IDU) in England for 1968-2000. The incidence of opiate use/IDU was estimated by combining information on the observed opiate overdose deaths of persons aged 15-44 years with knowledge on the distribution of the time between starting opia...

AIM To compare two anthropometrical methods for measuring the intervertebral disc size with computer tomography measurements and to develop a new anthropometric method for calculating intervertebral disc area. METHODS Intervertebral disc size was measured using computer tomography and two anthropometric methods (Colombini and modified Colombini) in a sample of 40 subjects. The new calculation...

A detailed analysis of mass non-conservation in the proximity of thermal contact discontinuities, when solving 1-D gas dynamic flow equations with finite difference numerical methods, is carried out in this paper. A wide spectrum of finite difference numerical methods has been applied to solve such conditions. Thermal contact discontinuities are very common in current diesel engines due to back...

A photonic ATM switch based on wavelengthdivision multiplexing will include several lossy passive devices, erbium-doped fiber amplifiers, and semiconductor optical amplifiers (SOAs) in a cascade configuration for fast switching of ns order. Its level diagram, which is very different from those of optical transmission links, has not been adequately studied. This paper investigates the concept of...

The concept of fidelity has been introduced to characterize the stability of a quantum-mechanical system against perturbations. The fidelity amplitude is defined as the overlap integral of a wave packet with itself after the development forth and back under the influence of two slightly different Hamiltonians. It was shown by Prosen and Znidaric in the linear-response approximation that the dec...
