Prediction of mechanical and radiation parameters of glasses with high Bi2O3 concentration

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2021
This study aims to perform multidirectional characterizations on nuclear shielding efficiencies on some bismuth-based glasses. Accordingly, the γattenuation coefficients for xBi2O3-(75-x)B2O3–25Li2O (x = 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, 50, 60 the 70 mol%) were widely

Investigation of gamma radiation shielding properties of polyethylene glycol in the energy range from 8.67 to 23.19 keV

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2022
The mass attenuation coefficients (μm) of polyethylene glycol (PEG) of different molecular weights (1000–200,000) were measured using single-beam photon transmission.

Photon Shielding Features of Quarry Tuff

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences, 2017
Cantera is a quarry tuff widely used in the building industry; in this work the shielding features of cantera were determined. The shielding characteristics were calculated using XCOM and MCNP5 codes for 0.03, 0.07, 0.1, 0.3, 0.662, 1, 2, and 3 MeV ...

Investigation of shielding parameters of some boron containing resources for gamma ray and fast neutron

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2019
Mass attenuation coefficient (μt) of some boron containing resources in China were investigated in the paper at 0.001–20 MeV through XCOM and Geant4. What’s more, half value thickness layer (HVL), mean free path (MFP), effective atomic number (Zeff) and ...

Radiation attenuation properties based on the quantification of soil components using the Rietveld Method

open access: yesResults in Physics, 2019
We propose the use of X-ray diffraction associated with Rietveld Method (RM-XRD) for soil components quantification aiming at evaluating photon attenuation parameters (total and partial attenuation coefficients (µ), effective atomic number (Zeff ...

Determination of X-ray and gamma-ray shielding capabilities of recycled glass derived from deteriorated silica gel

open access: yesNuclear Engineering and Technology, 2023
We determined the radiation shielding properties for 10CaO–xPbO–(90-x) deteriorated silica gel (DSG) glass system (x = 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, and 45 mol.%).

Adaptive Optical Layers: Efficient Tall Cell Grids for Liquid Simulation

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract Tall cell grids have been proposed as an efficient approach to accelerate large‐scale liquid simulation. In this framework, regions near the liquid surface are discretized with regular grids, while regions farther away are represented by elongated rectangular cells.

Parameters that remain consistent independent of pausing before gait-initiation during normal rise-to-walk behaviour delineated by sit-to-walk and sit-to-stand-and-walk. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
BACKGROUND:Rising-to-walk is an everyday transitional movement task rarely employed in gait rehabilitation. Sit-to-walk (STW) and sit-to-stand-and-walk (STSW), where a pause separates sit-to-stand and gait-initiation (GI) represent extremes of rising-to ...
