Thin films of binary Bi 0 -TeO and Bi 0 -V 0 systems were prepared by the thermal co-evaporation technique in a vacuum at room temperature. The optical absorption edge of these systems are studied in the wavelength of 200-800 nm using a PERKIN-ELMER uv/Vis spectrophotometer. It is found that the value of n=3/2 in the Davis-Mott equation is best fitted for the fundamental absorption edge f...

Energy absorption capability of thin-walled structures with various cross sections has been considered by researchers up to now. These structures as energy absorbers are used widely in different industries such as automotive and aerospace and protect passengers and goods against impact. In this paper, mechanical behavior of thin-walled aluminum tubes with and without polyurethane foam filler su...

this paper investigates axial compression process of multi-layered tubes with circular cross-section under the axial loading in the quasi-static condition using experimental method. some specimens are prepared in seven different groups, namely; empty carbon/epoxy composite tubes, solid carbon/epoxy composite rods, empty copper tubes, composite tubes with silicon sealant filler, concentrically s...

despite the rapid growth of engineering science especially in the modern structural engineering and application of new materials in civil engineering, a significant percentage of world population in different countries are living in adobe buildings made from mud-bricks. in this paper, by performing experimental study on scaled mud-brick walls under monotonic load, in-plane behavior of the walls...

Laser pulse nonlinear transmission measurements through saturable absorbers of known absorption parameters allow the measurement of their energy density. On the other hand, nonlinear transmission measurements of laser pulses of known energy density through absorbing media allow their absorption parameter determination. The peak energy density w0P of second harmonic pulses of a mode-locked titan...

Abstract: In this paper, combining the Maxwell equations with the electron balanceequation, we obtain the inverse braking radiation absorption coefficient in a laser fusioncorona plasma. For a fixed plasma temperature, variations of the absorption coefficientversus the penetration depth into the plasma are illustrated numerically for differentvalues of laser wavelength. ...

load management and cost optimization are among the important factors in trigenerationsystems and combined cooling, heating and power (cchp) systems. in this study, an innovative cchpsystem uses a gas turbine as the prime mover and has a heat recovery steam generator (hrsg) in addition toan auxiliary boiler, electric and absorption chillers. the system is tied with the bulk electric grid; to ex...

in order to implement an integrated optical quantum circuit, designing waveguides based on the quantum box is of prime importance. to do this we have investigated optical waveguide both with and without optical pumping. the rate of absorption and emission using an array of algaas/gaas quantum box core/shell structure in the optical waveguide with various pumping intensities has computed. by con...
