We compared the existing techniques for estimating normals at the lattice sites of a Body Centric Cubic (BCC) grid. We also investigated newer approaches for estimating the normals that takes the special geometric arrangement of the BCC lattice into consideration and compared the results with other existing techniques. A raycaster engine has been developed in this project which can trace ray on...

Molybdenum is a refractory metal that is stable in a body-centred cubic structure at all temperatures before melting. Plastic deformation via structural transitions has never been reported for pure molybdenum, while transformation coupled with plasticity is well known for many alloys and ceramics. Here we demonstrate a structural transformation accompanied by shear deformation from an original ...

This paper has deduced the baryon spectrum using only 2 flavored quarks u and d (each of them has three colored members). From Dirac’s sea concept and the quark confinement idea, we conjecture and then assume that the quarks (in the vacuum state) compose colorless particles (uud and udd, hereafter will be called the Lee Particles). Moreover, the Lee Particles lead in a natural way to the constr...

It is well known in the signal-processing community that the Body-Centered Cubic grid is the optimal sampling grid in 3D. In volume visualization, the Cartesian grid is by far the most popular type of grid because it is convenient to handle. But it requires 29.3% more samples than the Body-Centered Cubic grid. In order to convince people used to Cartesian grids for years of the advantages of Bo...

cobalt ferrite (cofe2o4) nanorods were synthesized by iron chloride (fecl3.6h2o) and cobalt sulfate hexahydrate (coso4.7h2o) as precursor in the presence of ethylene glycol agent and poly vinyl pyrrolidone (pvp) surfactant. the samples were characterized to identify the physical properties. xrd pattern of cobalt ferrite samples showed the structure of body center cubic (bcc) structure. the diam...

A series of high entropy alloys (HEAs), AlxNbTiMoV, was produced by a vacuum arc-melting method. Their microstructures and compressive mechanical behavior at room temperature were investigated. It has been found that a single solid-solution phase with a body-centered cubic (BCC) crystal structure forms in these alloys. Among these alloys, Al0.5NbTiMoV reaches the highest yield strength (1,625 M...

We enumerate the regular and chiral polyhedra (in the sense of Grünbaum’s skeletal approach) whose vertex and edge sets are a subset of those of the primitive cubic lattice, the face-centred cubic lattice, or the body-centred cubic lattice.
