Micro scale gas flows has attracted significant research interest in the last two decades. In this research, the fluid flow of gases in the stepped micro-channel at a wide range of Knudsen number has been analyzed with using the Lattice Boltzmann (MRT) method. In the model, a modified second-order slip boundary condition and a Bosanquet-type effective viscosity are used to consider the veloci...

polylactic acid based biodegradable nanocomposites reinforced with acetylated nanocellulose were fabricated with solution casting procedure. the nanocomposites were prepared by adding 1, 3 and 5% nanofiber loadings. the microstructure, physical, mechanical and thermal properties of the prepared nanocomposites were investigated. scanning electronic microscope (sem) analysis of the composites con...

In this research, a semi empirical approach has been suggested for calculating the activation energyof unimolecular thermal decomposition of vinyl ethers yielding saturated products. The calculationprocedure is based on the use of molecular mechanics (MM) methods. These methods which involvethe construction of the transition state for a molecule mainly consider the formation of a “HydrogenBridg...
