This study investigated the thermal transport behaviors of branched carbon nanotubes (CNTs) with cross and T-junctions through non-equilibrium molecular dynamics (NEMD) simulations. A hot region was created at end one branch, whereas cold regions were ends all other branches. The effects on flow due to branch length, topological defects junctions, temperature studied. NEMD simulations room indi...

The paper presents the results of a study effect annealing on critical current YBCO Josephson junctions obtained by method preliminary topology mask bicrystalline substrate. A strong, more than two-fold increase in junction was detected. This opens up opportunities for managing current-voltage characteristic junctions. Keywords: junctions, annealing, YBCO.

Multi-junction solar cells play a crucial role in the ConcentratedPhotovoltaic (CPV) Systems. Recent developments in CPV concerning high powerproduction and cost effective-ness along with better efficiency are due to theadvancements in multi-junction cells. This paper presents a simulation model of thegeneralized Multi-junction solar cell and introduces a two-bond solar ...

it was thought previously that cardiac muscle gap junctions provide low-resistance connections between cells and permit the local-circuit current to flow. some evidences show that myocardial cells may not require low-resistance connections for successful propagation of the action potential (ap). it seems that some other types of mechanisms must be involved in ap propagation. in this article, we...

The influence of the contact resistance interface YBCO/Au structure on transport and microwave properties arrays high-temperature bicrystal Josephson junctions embedded in a coplanar transmission line has been studied. current-voltage characteristics structures fabricated using various technologies are studied: situ ex with annealing an oxygen atmosphere. results obtained can be used to create ...

nowadays, compressible flow transmission pipelines are used in many industrial processes. pipelines in chemical processes, gas turbine power plants, natural gas transmission lines, and high pressure steam transmission pipelines are some industrial examples. therefore, learning the manner of treatment of a transient compressible fluid flow in pipelines with junctions and branches is important. i...

abstract background: the pressure of consumption spots in eater supply systems is one of the most important hydraulic parameters can be used in optimized management of water distribution networks. since the pressure has some different effects on various parameters of the network management including its hydraulic functions, reliability, stability and leakage, its control is of great importance ...

Background: Connexon is a membrane structural protein in the gap junctions. These cellular connections are responsible for transporting ions and messenger molecules to the oocyte. This study aimed to investigate the role of beta-2-adrenoceptors in the process of follicle growth based on the expression of the two connexins 37/43 in the gap junctions that have a primary role in the mitotic resump...

Background: Gap junctions composed of connexins (Cx) are functional in cell defense by propagation of toxic/death molecules to neighboring cells. Hippocampus, one of the brain regions with particular vulnerability to damage, has a wide network of gap junctions. Functional response of astrocytic Cx30 and neuronal Cx32 to hippocampal damage is unknown. Methods: We infused lipopolysaccharide (LPS)...

A tight binding approach based on the Bogoliubov-de Gennes approach has been used to calculate the DC Josephson current for a lattice model for S-GNR-S junctions , for short junctions with respect to superconducting coherence length. We calculate the phase, length, width and chemical potential dependence at the Josephson junction and discuss the similarities and differences with regard to the t...
