Demand for plastic products is continuously growing with population increase and higher living standards. Imparting colours to plastics is a combination of art and science and plays a key role in production of attractive ...

We introduce a versatile advanced method of electrospinning for fabricating various kinds of nanofibrous patterns along with desired alignment, controlled amount of deposition and locally variable density into the ...

An experimental investigation is conducted to test the thermal properties, behaviour and characteristics of R134a clathrates with additives, as phase change materials (PCMs). PCMs’ charging characteristics are analysed and ...

Assuming a bidirectional relay assisted network, we first study the problem of optimal resource sharing between two transceiver pairs. One of the pairs, referred to as the primary pair, owns the spectral resources while ...

Metal matrix composites (MMCs) are commonly utilized materials in various industries, including applications in aerospace and automotive industries, due to their outstanding strength-to-weight ratio and wear resistance. ...

In this dissertation, the energy storage management and load scheduling problems are studied. The main objective is to design real-time cost-effective control policies at a residential site with integrated renewable ...

This study aims to investigate the feasibility of the Mg-Cl hybrid thermochemical cycle and to develop a more cost and energy effective cycle. There are five key elements of this study: (i) modeling and simulation of the ...

Consistently producing compounded plastics in the correct colour without making adjustments of the colour formulation or the processing conditions is very challenging for coloured plastics manufacturers. Conversely, the ...

In this thesis three novel multigeneration energy systems are introduced based on renewable resources such as solar and wind energy. The results of the analyses show that, System 1 has a maximum energy efficiency of 43% ...

An approach for generating radiation intensity maps, comprised of a mobile robotic platform and an integrated radiation model, is presented, and its ability to generate accurate radiation maps in simulation studies as well ...
