To improve the understanding of the relation between composition, precipitation and the balance of strength and electrical conductivity (as a measure of the stress-corrosion resistance), a number of Al-Zn-Mg-Cu-Zr aluminium alloy plates with different Zn, Mg and Cu contents were produced and studied by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). It is shown that detailed analysis of the DSC data p...

BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE This study compares the concordance between arterial spin labeling (ASL) and dynamic susceptibility contrast (DSC) for the identification of regional hypoperfusion and diffusion-perfusion mismatch tissue classification using a quantitative method. METHODS The inclusion criteria for this retrospective study were as follows: patients with acute ischemic syndrome with symp...

We explore the feasibility of using a local spectral time-domain (LSTD) method to solve Maxwell's equations that arise in optical and electromagnetic applications. The discrete singular convolution (DSC) algorithm is implemented in the LSTD method for spatial derivatives. Fourier analysis of the dispersive error of the DSC algorithm indicates that its grid density requirement for accurate simul...

Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analysis of ring opening methatesis polymerization (ROMP) derived polydicyclopentadiene (PDCPD) revealed an unexpected thermal behavior. A recurring exothermic signal can be observed in the DSC analysis after an elapsed time period. This exothermic signal was found to be proportional to the resting period and was accompanied by a constant increase in the ...

Thermo-sensitive hydrogels were prepared by graft copolymerization of Polyvenylalcohol and chitosan with N-Isopropylacrylamide via gamma radiation. Characterization of hydrogels such as DSC analysis and swelling and solubility tests in different ratios were investigated. DSC and solubility analysis showed chitosan and PVA and NIPAAm monomer were grafted via gamma radiation successfully. Results...
