Explorations of combined nonsolvent and thermally induced phase separation (N-TIPS) method for fabricating novel PVDF hollow fiber membranes using mixed diluents by Zhao, Jie, Chong, Jeng Yi, Shi, Lei, Wang, Rong

“…The water permeability of the membrane increased significantly from 389 ± 30–922 ± 36 L m–2 h–1 bar–1, with overall porosity improved from 50 ± 2.2–69 ± 2.9%, and a mean pore size of ~ 0.18 µm. …”

Synthesis and reactivity of electron-deficient phosphorus(III) compounds by Dordevic, Nemanja

“…Transient formation of [1a]2+ and [1b]2+ is evidenced by activating C-F bonds of trifluorotoluene and [BArF4]- (ArF = (CF3)2-C6H3) anion. The replacement of carbodiphosphorane 1 with more nucleophilic and sterically less demanding carbodicarbene ligand {C6H4(MeN)2C}2C, 2 resulted in a series of P-dications [{C6H4(MeN)2C}2C.PR]2+ (R = NiPr2, Ph, OMe, tBu, Cl) whose spectroscopic and structural features are presented. …”

Thermodynamic modelling of adsorption isotherms and kinetics for gas storage and cooling applications by Sun, Baichuan

“…The experimental setup is extensively utilised to measure the amount of methane uptake for the temperatures ranging from 120 K to 303 K and pressures up to 10 bar. The proposed isotherm model is validated with the experimental data of silica gel + water and AQSOA-Z01, Z02, Z05 + water systems, and explains the S-shaped isotherms within acceptable error ranges (±5%), as compared with Langmuir and Toth isotherm equations. …”

Electrical machine fault analysis and modelling by using electromagnetic approach by Zhang, Meng Qi

“…The study in this thesis indicates that the stator inter-turn winding short-circuit fault can also result in irreversi-ble demagnetization for the bar-wounded permanent magnet machines. Moreover, an analytical model is designed to predict winding short-circuit current, which significantly reduce the time required by finite element method to assess machine irreversible demagnetization. …”

Dynamic fracture mechanics of FRP-concrete interface by Li, Gen

“…To shed light on the FRP bond-slip behaviour under high loading rates (above 800 mm/s), the author proposed a novel experimental method for high loading-rate impact tests using a modified Split Hopkinson Pressure Bar (SHPB) set-up. Dynamic enhancing effect on ultimate load, shear bond stress and shear fracture energy could be quantified for a wide range of loading rates varying from 0.02 mm/s to 2150 mm/s. …”
