Structural and electrical properties of antiferroelectric lead zirconate thin films prepared by reactive magnetron co-sputtering
(1997)
The structural and electrical properties of antiferroelectric lead zirconate thin films were investigated. The films were prepared by a reactive magnetron co-sputtering method followed by rapid thermal annealing. The ...
The Global Positioning System
(2013)
The Global Positioning System or GPS is the oldest and most widely used GNSS system, and as such will be extensively discussed in this and the next chapter. The development of GPS satellites dates from the 1960s.
Flow due to a two-dimensional heat source with cross flow in the atmosphere
(1976)
This paper presents a model describing the flow field due to a two-dimensional infinitely long heat source in a stably-stratified atmosphere with a uniform wind cross-flow. The governing equation which is valid for any ...
Transition from Brittle Failure to Ductile Flow in a Sandy Soil
(2007)
A series of experiments were carried out using a triaxial system modified for unsaturated soil testing to investigate brittle transitional and ductile failure behaviour of a sandy clay loam soil under varying soil water ...
Static and dynamic axial crushing of spot-welded thin-walled composite steel–CFRP square tubes
(2009)
Thin-walled metallic tubular components have long been adopted in the transportation industries, where the stable energy absorbing crushing process provides protection to occupants and cargo in the event of a collision. ...
Digital Photogrammetry
(2013)
One of the most fundamental developments in the history of photogrammetry has been the transition from analytical to digital photogrammetry. This was realized in the early 1990s through softcopy-based systems or Digital ...
