Thermal neutron scattering theory is outlined in Chapter 2. The thermal scattering law (TSL) defines the dynamic structure factor, S(α,β). It is defined as the mathematical representation of the physical structure, chemical ...

The validity of Multiple Resource Theory (MRT) to predict performance was investigated. Multiple resources identified in the literature were compiled in a MRT questionnaire and compared in terms of its ability to predict ...

For elemental semiconductors such as Ge, successful growth by van der Waals epitaxy has been challenging and therefore it has not been achieved thus far. I will first present the observation of Ge(111) film epitaxially ...

For the completely hydrophilic surface, the highest heat transfer coefficient was about 12400 W/m2K and that of the completely hydrophobic surface was around 31500 W/m2K, which is about 2.5 times higher than that for the ...

Classical techniques for initial orbit determination (IOD) require the analyst to find a body's orbit given only observations such as bearings, range, and/or position. In these cases, one of the goals is often to solve for ...
