Role of the pH on Hyaluronan Behavior in Aqueous Solution
This paper examines the behavior of hyaluronan solutions at different pH values. A slight degradation is observed in acidic conditions (pH = 1.6) and basic medium (pH = 12.6) from molecular weight distribution analysis, but the rheological behavior is relatively not influenced much by the pH at the exclusion of...

Control of Hot Carrier Degradation in LDMOS Devices by a Dummy Gate Field Plate: Experimental Demonstration
This paper focuses on the on-resistance increase of LDMOS devices due to hot carrier stress and demonstrates that it can be controlled reasonably well by an appropriate placement and coverage of a dummy gate field plate, DGFP. It demonstrates the benefits of the DGFP in reducing the gate to drain...

Hysteresis Models for Nailed Sheathing-to-Framing Connections in Wood Shear Walls and Diaphragms
This paper discusses the hysteresis models for nailed wood shear walls and diaphragms. For comparison, the dynamic response of a 2.44 X 2.44 m wood shear wall is predicted using the Clough, Q-hyst, and modified Stewart hysteresis models. The results indicate that parameters describing strength degradation, stiffness degradation, and pinching...

Characterization of Proton Damage in Light-Emitting Diodes
This white paper reveals that Proton damage is investigated for several types of modern light-emitting diodes, examining the damage from the standpoint of older models based on lifetime degradation as well as the simpler method of normalized degradation. It also outlines that an empirical model is developed to describe injection-enhanced...

Visible Light-Induced Degradation of Carbon Tetrachloride on Dye-Sensitized TiO2
This study investigated an application of TiO2 photo catalyst sensitized with tris (4,4¢-dicarboxy-2,2¢-bipyridyl)ruthenium- II complex to CCl4 degradation under visible light irradiation. By injecting electrons from the photoexcited sensitizer to the conduction band, the sensitized TiO2 degraded CCl4 under the irradiation of Ï > 420 nm. The quantum yield of...

Sustained Perchlorate Degradation in an Autotrophic, Gas-Phase, Packed-Bed Bioreactor
The paper reveals about an autotrophic packed-bed biofilm reactor that was operated in unsaturated-flow mode and continuously fed water containing perchlorate (ClO4) as an electron acceptor and a gas mixture of hydrogen (5%) and carbon dioxide. The reactor was inoculated with a perchlorate-reducing, hydrogen-oxidizing autotrophic bacterial consortium and run for...

Evaluation and enhancement of transport network reliability: network equilibrium based approach
In our daily life, we generally expect the transport system to be efficient, safe, and reliable. However, there exist several sources of uncertainties in the transportation system both on demand and supply sides. With a constant growth in economic activities most urban transport networks currently operate at...

Comparative analysis of three user equilibrium models under stochastic demand
Recent empirical studies on the value of time and reliability reveal that travel time variability plays an important role on travelers' route choice decision process. It can be considered as a risk to travelers making a trip. Therefore, travelers are not only interested in saving their travel...

Partition-based algorithm for estimating transportation network reliability with dependent link failures
Evaluating the reliability of a transportation network often involves an intensive simulation exercise to randomly generate and evaluate different possible network states. This paper proposes an algorithm to approximate the network reliability which minimizes the use of such simulation procedure. The algorithm will dissect and classify the...
