Efficient and Accurate Handling of Periodic Flows in Time-Sensitive Networks

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Seyed Mohammadhossein Tabatabaee

Total Flow Analysis (TFA) is a method for the worst-case analysis of time-sensitive networks. It uses service curve characterizations of the network nodes and arrival curves of flows at their sources; for tractability, the latter are often taken to be line ...

Modelling the coupled mercury-halogen-ozone cycle in the central Arctic during spring

Julia Schmale, Ivo Fabio Beck, Hélène Paule Angot

Near-surface mercury and ozone depletion events occur in the lowest part of the atmosphere during Arctic spring. Mercury depletion is the first step in a process that transforms long-lived elemental mercury to more reactive forms within the Arctic that are ...

Near ambient-pressure X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy study of CO2 activation and hydrogenation on indium/copper surface

Andreas Züttel, Wen Luo, Mo Li

Indium-based catalysts exhibit excellent performance for CO2 hydrogenation to methanol, yet their nature and chemical evolution under reaction conditions are still elusive, thus hindering an understanding of their reaction mechanism. In this work, near amb ...

Phase transformation induced distortions in red gold alloys

Margaux Nathalie Dominique Larcher

Red gold alloys owe their warm and attractive colour to the combination of gold and copper atoms. Thanks to their good mechanical properties and resistance to corrosion, red gold alloys are used in luxury industries as well as in dentistry. Around the equi ...

Understanding Thermomechanical Treatments Induced by Laser Powder Bed Fusion Process

Hossein Ghasemi Tabasi

Additive Manufacturing (AM) is referred to technologies that produce directly 3D parts in a layer-by-layer fashion. Laser Powder Bed Fusion (L-PBF) is one of the most important AM processes, enabling production of very complex metallic objects from a compu ...

Mapping Spatial Distribution of Pores in an Additively Manufactured Gold Alloy Using Neutron Microtomography

Roland Logé, Jamasp Jhabvala, Hossein Ghasemi Tabasi

A crucial criterion for the quality of the additively manufactured parts is the porosity content for achieving an acceptable final relative density. In addition, for jewelry applications, visible pores are unacceptable at or in the vicinity of the surface. ...

Efficient Hydrogen Oxidation Catalyzed by Strain-Engineered Nickel Nanoparticles

Xile Hu, Pascal Alexander Schouwink, Weiyan Ni

The hydroxide-exchange membrane fuel cell (HEMFC) is a promising energy conversion device. However, the development of HEMFC is hampered by the lack of platinum-group-metal-free (PGM-free) electrocatalysts for the hydrogen oxidation reaction (HOR). Now, a ...

Design of Ductile Rare-Earth-Free Magnesium Alloys

William Curtin, Binglun Yin, Rasool Ahmad

Pure Mg has low ductility due to a transition of < c+a > pyramidal dislocations to a sessile basal-oriented structure. Dilute alloying generally improves ductility. Enhancement of pyramidal cross-slip from the lower-energy pyramidal II plane to the higher- ...

Axisymmetric oscillations at L-H transitions in JET: M-mode

Nicola Vianello, Antonio José Pereira de Figueiredo

L to H transition studies at JET have revealed an n = 0, m = 1 magnetic oscillation starting immediately at the L to H transition (called M-mode for brevity). While the magnetic oscillation is present a weak ELM-less H-mode regime is obtained, with a clear ...
