Chen, Eugene D. (2020-04-09)The dust soiling on the photovoltaic panels has been an important issue due to the rapid growth of solar energy as a major source for electricity production. More and more establishment of utility-scale solar farms further ...
-
Rotavera, Brandon (2011-02-22)Stemming from a continuing demand for fuel surrogates, composed of only a few species, combustion of high-molecular-weight hydrocarbons (>C5) is of scientific interest due to their abundance in petroleum-based fuels, which ...
-
Tang, Yingjie (2012-07-16)In this work, various aerosol particle transport and deposition mechanisms were studied through the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling, including inertial impaction, gravitational effect, lift force, interception, ...
-
Hargis, Joshua William (2020-08-27)A new shock-tube facility for the study of gas- and condensed-phase measurements has been developed for the investigation of various hydrocarbon species. At present, the shock-tube facility is intended for studying combustion ...
-
Singh, Gagan (2012-07-16)A real-time, mobile Scanning Electrical Mobility Spectrometer (SEMS) was designed using a Condensation Particle Counter (CPC) and Differential Mobility Analyzer (DMA) to measure the size distribution of nanoparticles. The ...
-
Al-Buainain, Maryam Rashid; Haider, Hassan (2020-04-16)Attachment of particles to certain surfaces like glass plays a critical role in engineering and natural processes. An application can be found in the solar energy field as the accumulation of dust particles on the solar ...
-
Hossain, Mohammad (2010-12-04)In this study, ultrathin (submonolayer to eight-monolayer) Pd films were deposited one layer at a time on well-defined Pt(111) surfaces via a process known as surface-limited redox replacement reaction (SLR^3). In this ...

Ellahi, Mehtab; Braganza, Nathan Joseph Joseph; Hammoud, Ahmad Salah; Shaaban, Mohammad AhmadThe process of 3D printing concrete is a relatively new concept compared to traditional manufacturing and even novel techniques such as 3D printing using plastics and metal. A general concern in the construction industry ...
-
Kassab, Asmaa S. (2010-10-12)To ensure effective detection of bio-particles, it is crucial to understand the effects of collection method and archiving conditions on the survivability of bioaerosols, consequently, the survivability of the spore-forming ...
-
Kim, Taeyang (2010-10-12)In this study, the effect of synthesis conditions and annealing process on the sensitivity and stability of gas sensors made of flame-synthesized Zn-doped γ-Fe2O3 particles was investigated. Zn-doped γ-Fe2O3 particles ...
-
Yim, Hoon (2010-07-14)Y2O3:Eu particles are phosphors that have found wide applications. Flamesynthesized Y2O3:Eu particles may have either the cubic or the monoclinic structure. The effects of particle size and Eu doping concentration on crystal ...
-
Mueschke, Nicholas J. (2010-01-16)Experiments and simulations were performed to examine the complex processes that occur in Rayleigh�Taylor driven mixing. A water channel facility was used to examine a buoyancy-driven Rayleigh�Taylor mixing layer. Measurements ...
-
Kuchibhatla, Sarat Chandra (2011-10-21)An experimental study of the effect of initial conditions on the development of Rayleigh Taylor Instabilities (RTI) at low Atwood numbers (order of 10-4) was performed in the water channel facility at TAMU. Initial conditions ...
-
Gordillo Ariza, Gerardo (2010-10-12)Concentrated animal feeding operations such as cattle feedlots and dairies produce a large amount of manure, cattle biomass (CB), which may lead to land, water, and air pollution if waste handling systems and storage and ...
-
Donato, Nicole (2011-02-22)The measure of chemiluminescence from the transition of the hydroxyl radical from its electronically excited state (A^2 Sigma^positive) to its ground state (X^2 Pi) is used in many combustion applications for diagnostic ...
-
Taha, Mohamed Ahmed (2014-11-11)It is very worthwhile for the regulatory agencies to have an understandable method to evaluate the health effects for humans who may be exposed to several mixtures of emitted chemicals, due to continuous regulated releases ...
