One-dimensional metal chalcogenide nanostructures are important candidates for many technological applications such as photovoltaic and thermoelectric devices. However, the design and synthesis of one-dimensional metal chalcogenide nanostructured materials with controllable components and properties remain a challenge. We report a general chemical transformation process for the synthesis of mor...

Composition, synthesis and structural properties of ferrofluids and magnetorheological fluids are reviewed and compared. The similarities and main differences between the two types of magnetically controllable fluids are outlined and exemplified in the paper. Chemical synthesis and structural characterization of magnetizable fluids for engineering and biomedical applications are thoroughly disc...

For controllable timed automata, a general parametric optimization framework based on automatatheory is proposed. The framework is general enough to incorporate both the parametric analysis problem and the controller synthesis problem of computer systems. We propose an algorithm for the construction of the characterization of the parameter constraints and controller synthesis, which in turn yie...

The controllable synthesis of 3-methylene-2,3-dihydrobenzofurans 2 and 3-methylene-2,3-dihydroindoles 5 has been developed through Rh-catalyzed intramolecular annulation of aromatic rings with azavinyl carbenes.

We report the design and synthesis of a polymer structure from a cross-linkable epoxy-ionic liquid system which behaves like a hard and brittle epoxy thermoset, perfectly ductile thermoplastic and an elastomer, all depending on controllable network compositions.

workspace analysis is one of the most important issues in the robotic parallel manipulator design. ‎however, ‎the unidirectional constraint imposed by cables causes this analysis more challenging in the cabledriven redundant parallel manipulators. controllable workspace is one of the general workspace in the cabledriven redundant parallel manipulators due to the dependency on geometry parameter...
