Use of Natural Fibers for Enhancing Polymeric Materials

28th European Biomass Conference and Exhibition (EUBCE 2020), 2020
In the framework of the AGROinLOG European Project (Grant Agreement No 727961) from Horizon 2020, the potential to produce biomaterials with the fodder surplus during the agroindustry idle periods has been studied. Different value-added bio-composites based on a matrix of polypropylene and reinforced with natural fibers from wheat and corn straw were ...

Evaluation of E-vehicle Efficiency Enhancement with Magnetic Materials [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
Electric vehicles (EVs) commonly use BLDC (Brushless DC) motors because of their efficiency, reliability, and low maintenance needs. BLDC motors are perfect for vehicle propulsion because they convert a large portion of electrical energy into mechanical ...

Semantic Enhancement of Lecture Material

CoRR, 2014
Today's lectures are often talks following a straight line of slides. In many lectures the process of content teaching is not as efficient as it could be. Technologies, such as smart-phones and wireless communication, enable a new level of interaction between lecturer, content and audience.

Bismuth sulfide-titania heterostructure used for photothermal amplified sonodynamic therapy against hypoxic tumor

Materials Today Bio
Hypoxia and electron-hole recombination are two obstacles limiting sonodynamic therapeutic efficacy against cancer. Herein, bismuth sulfide (Bi2S3)-titania (TiO2) heterostructure is designed based on the excellent photothermal property of Bi2S3, which ...

Acoustic enhancement of diffusion in a porous material

Ultrasonics, 2003
Lattice Boltzmann simulations are used to model the enhancement of diffusion which results from Eckart (attenuation driven) acoustic streaming in model porous material. Comparisons are made to Fickian diffusion where no flow is present and the diffusion when a fluid jet is used, which represents a more conventional method of enhancement.
