In the present research, the effect of standoff distance on corrosion properties of the joint of three aluminum–steel explosive layers has been studied. For this purpose, the samples were welded with various standoff distance under constant explosive load. Optical Microscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy were used to measure the quality of the joint and type of interface. Furthermore, point ...

the one-dimensional model of lippincott and schroeder for hydrogen bond has been re-examined and it has been shown that o-h bond distance depends on repulsive van der waals and attractive electrostatic potentials.it has been shown that constant b in the van der waals repulsion potential is not transferable to all hydrogen bonds. the possibility of obtaining the semi-empircal parameters in the l...

Energy preservation is critical task in the wireless sensor networks and the energy cost increases proportionally as the transmission distance increases. Since nodes are equipped with limited energy it is very crucial to decrease the energy consumption by decreasing the communication distance between the nodes. In clustering protocols inter-cluster and intra-cluster communication is most neglec...

The main objective of this research is to improvethe design and performance of the polyurethane foam-filled thin-walled aluminum grooved circular tubes using multi-response optimization (MRO) technique. The tubes are shaped with the inner and the outer circular grooves at different positions along the axis. For this aim, several numerical simulations using ABAQUS finite element explicit code ar...

Conventional Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) processes involving a pair of fluorophore and organic quencher are restricted to an upper distance limit of ~10 nm. The application of a metal nanoparticle as a quencher can overcome the distance barrier of the traditional FRET technique. However, no standard distance dependence of this resonance energy transfer (RET) process has been firmly...

a sensor network is made up of a large number of sensors with limited energy. sensors collect environmental data then send them to the sink. energy efficiency and thereby increasing the lifetime of sensor networks is important. direct transfer of the data from each node to the central station will increase energy consumption. previous research has shown that the organization of nodes in cluster...
