Nanowires of the same composition, and even fabricated within the same batch, often exhibit electrical conductivities that can vary by orders of magnitude. Unfortunately, existing electrical characterization methods are time-consuming, making the statistical survey of highly variable samples essentially impractical. Here, we demonstrate a contactless, solution-based method to efficiently measur...

soil salinity is one of the important factors which can influence the growth anddistribution of plant species. saline and alkaline rangelands of golestan province, iran withlow-deep underground water level are considered as a halophyte plant species growing area.attempts have been made to determine soil salinity and its relationship with frankenia hirsutal. in order to determine the electrical ...

batiaghata upazila, khulna district in south-west coastal region of bangladesh is the mostly saline affected area, where agriculture activities are mainly dependent on rainfall. 23 water samples from surface water and shallow tube well (stw) were collected in the monsoon season and analyzed for physico-chemical properties to classify them according to salinity hazard. electrical conductivity (e...

Photoinductive (PI) field mapping for eddy-current (EC) probes above a thin metal film was performed by multiphysics analysis with two-dimensional finite element method (FEM). The FEM model of PI method was used to observe how metal film properties affect the field-mapping signals of EC probes. The PI signal was tested for effects of resistivity, temperature coefficient of the resistivity, ther...

We investigate Li+ coordination in mixed electrolytes based on ionic liquids (ILs) and organic solvents and its relation with the macroscopic properties such as phase behaviour and ionic conductivity. Using Raman spectroscopy we determine the solvation shell around Li+ in mixtures formed by the IL N-butyl-N-methylpyrrolidinium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, the organic solvents ethylene ca...

The influence of cathode materials including carbonaceous electrode on the cathodic mineral scaling behavior in a context wastewater treatment is investigated for first time and particularly thin film microfluidic reactors. kinetics CaCO3 Mg(OH)2 electro-precipitations were evaluated with different (with distinct porosities, electroactive surface area (Selec) hydrogen (H2) evolution overpotenti...

A study was conducted to investigate the possibility of measuring the electrical conductivity (EC) of cow's milk as a practical and cost-effective means of determining oestrus in cows. Prostaglandin injections were used to synchronise the oestrous cycle of 15 cows. From the onset of oestrus, milk and blood samples were collected from each cow every 2nd day over a period of 22 days. A portable, ...

INTRODUCTION In order to realize successful fine and precise EDM, it is important to minimize the wear of the electrode under the condition of very small pulse duration. To cope with this issue, the authors focused attention on the electrically conductive CVD diamond (EC-CVD diamond here after) having very high thermal conductivity, and have already shown that an extremely low wear machining co...

Electrical conductivity (EC) of milk is an indicator of mastitis, and could, if it shows genetic variation and is genetically correlated to mastitis, be used in a breeding program where selection for reduced mastitis resistance is included. In this study, daily measurements of EC and mastitis were analyzed with a bivariate model. For EC, the estimated heritability was high (0.22 to 0.39), while...
