AN INTEGRATIVE FRAMEWORK TO ASSESS THE SPATIO-TEMPORAL IMPACT OF PLANT INVASION ON ECOSYSTEM FUNCTIONING


A method for evaluating the heat rejection efficiency in a Lunar power plant consisting of a free-piston Stirling engine (FPSE)

A method for evaluating the heat rejection efficiency in a Lunar power plant consisting of a free-piston Stirling engine FPSE is proposed.The waste heat from the FPSE is absorbed by the refrigerant circulating in a closed pumped loop and then rejected through a radiator into space.The magnitude of the heat flux rejected through the radiator is dete

Evaluation of Polymer Wettability Alteration and Adsorption of Modified Silica Nanoparticles for Enhanced Oil Recovery

Hypothesis: The change in the wetting of rock from hydrophobic to hydrophilic is named "wettability alteration".This is an important factor for enhanced oil Wovens recovery (EOR).Because of their unique properties, nanoparticles have attracted much attention for enhanced oil recovery.Despite promising results, the main challenges of using nanoparti
