The autoxidative condensation of 2-aryl-2-lithio-1,3-dithianes is here reported. Treatment of 2-aryl-1,3-dithianes with n-BuLi in the absence of any electrophile leads to condensation of three molecules of 1,3-dithianes ...

Semiconductor nanowires made of high refractive index materials can couple the incoming light to specific waveguide modes that offer resonant absorption enhancement under the bandgap wavelength, essential for light harvesting, ...

There is an increasing need for predictive risk assessment of nanomaterials (NMs) using methods that are rapid, accurate and resource efficient. To fulfill this need, the development and use of Quantitative Property Property ...

Multi-project change programs pursue challenging goals and may suffer from uncertainty and conflicting interests. To achieve their goals, such programs need integration both with the parent organization and between projects. ...

Dark fermentative biohydrogen production in a thermophilic, xylose-fed (50 mM) fluidised bed reactor (FBR) was evaluated in the temperature range 55-70 °C with 5-degree increments and compared with a mesophilic FBR operated ...

In this letter, we propose an iterative Kalman type algorithm based on posterior linearization. The proposed algorithm uses a nested loop structure to optimize the mean of the estimate in the inner loop and update the ...

This paper presents the remote detection of alpha contamination in a nuclear facility. Alpha-active material in a shielded nuclear radiation containment chamber has been localized by optical means. Furthermore, sources of ...

We report the development of superluminescent diodes (SLDs) emitting mW-level output power in a broad spectrum centered at a wavelength of 2.55 μm. The emitting structure consists of two compressively strained GaInAsSb/G ...

A mesophilic (37 °C) and a thermophilic (55 °C) two-chamber microbial fuel cell (MFC) were studied and compared for their power production from xylose and the microbial communities involved. The anode-Attached, membrane-Attached, ...

In the field of manufacturing the responsiveness has become a new strategic goal for the enterprises alongside with quality and costs. Efficient responsiveness requires production reconfiguration ranging from layout to ...
