Performance and Efficiency of an Autoclave Made from Local Materials in Winter and Summer in Iraq

open access: yesAl-Mustansiriyah Journal of Science
A solar-powered autoclave, made of a parabolic dish reflector that collects solar radiation at the focal point to heat a vessel, was established and tested. Thermal performance was tested and compared between months June and December 2022 through thermal

Orbital dynamics of high area-to-mass ratio spacecraft under the influence of J2 and solar radiation pressure

open access: yes, 2011
This paper investigates the effect of planetary oblateness and solar radiation pressure on the orbit of high area-to-mass spacecraft. A planar Hamiltonian model shows the existence of equilibrium orbits with the orbit apogee pointing towards or away from

Phase Engineering of Atomically Precise Nanoclusters (APNCs) of Gold and Beyond

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Engineering the structural phase of materials is of paramount importance for both fundamental research and practical applications. In this Review, we summarize the recent progress in controlling the phases of atomically precise nanoclusters (APNCs) of gold, silver and copper, as well as bimetallic systems. The phase‐enabled material properties of APNCs

Static highly elliptical orbits using hybrid low-thrust propulsion

open access: yes, 2012
The use of extended static-highly elliptical orbits, termed Taranis orbits, is considered for continuous observation of high latitude regions. Low-thrust propulsion is used to alter the critical inclination of Molniya-like orbits to any inclination ...

Geo-engineering using dust grains in heliotropic elliptical orbits

open access: yes, 2011
This paper examines the concept of a Saturn-like Earth ring comprised of dust grains to offset global warming. A new family of non-Keplerian periodic orbits, under the effects of solar radiation pressure and the Earth’s oblateness J2 perturbation, is ...

Co1/Ru Single‐Atom Alloy Catalyst for Sustainable Polypropylene Hydrogenolysis to Long‐Chain Liquid Products

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
A titania‐supported Co1/Ru single‐atom alloy catalyst enables efficient polypropylene hydrogenolysis. Ru─Co─Ru motifs maintain Ru activity while suppressing excessive chain scission to gaseous products. Both virgin and waste plastics achieve high, environmentally and economically optimal C11+ liquid yields, supporting sustainable chemical recycling ...
