“…Building a full physically acceptable theoretical energy function that regenerates both bulk and nano-scale experimental predictions have become an increasingly important matter. Up-to-date, several effective potential energy functions (PEF) and models tried to simulate the interatomic interaction within nanoparticles, [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16] or nanotubes [17][18][19] with some failures and a number of conditional successes based on many assumptions that undermine the predicted results. Many researchers were able to use semi-empirical PEFs with adjustable parameters.…”

The purpose of this novel work is to calculate the cohesive energy of FCC transition metallic nanoparticles that comprise up-to-12215 atoms. In this paper, a modification of the universal pair potential function proposed by Rose et al. (1981), is introduced. While Rose's function works fine for bulk materials, it fails to predict the experimental results for FCC metallic nanoparticles. The Chen-Mobius method was used to construct the modified pair potential which had been summed over all pairs of atoms within a given nanoparticle. Although simple, this method accurately predicts the experimental cohesive energy reported for FCC-transition metallic nanoparticles in the literature.

“…The irradiance spectrum of a black body, which is governed by Planck's law, played an important role in opening the world of quantum mechanics at the beginning of the twentieth century and led to the development of quantum science and electronics. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17] Planck's law states that a black body's spectral irradiance is a function of its temperature and that the spectral irradiance of a real object is determined by multiplying its emissivity by that of a black body at a specified temperature. 18 Even two objects composed of the same material and at the same temperature will exhibit different emissivities if their surface states differ.…”

We here report a method for fabricating a heat-resistant alloy based on NiW electroplating and silicon lost-molding processes. A periodic micropattern was fabricated on a silicon mold by electronbeam lithography and deep reactive-ion etching. A heat-resistive NiW alloy film with a thickness of 2.1 m was subsequently electroplated onto an Au seed layer deposited on the silicon mold, following which the silicon mold was finally etched, and a free-standing NiW alloy film was released. The NiW film was characterized by energy-dispersive X-ray spectrometry and Fourier transform infrared spectrophotometer. The film contained 24.6 at% tungsten, and its melting point was estimated to be 1675 C. Modification of the film's spectral reflectivity was confirmed, and an emission peak at 1.4 m was observed; This emission wavelength agrees well with the absorption band of a conventional infrared photovoltaic cell of Ge. Thermophotovoltaic power generation was demonstrated using a Ge photodiode and Joule heating of the micropatterned NiW film, and a radiation efficiency of 9 13 × 10 −6 was achieved.

“…for the material development progresses actively. [13][14][15] Thus, there is an urgent demand for the evaluation of the collision safety performance of the structural members used in lightweight cars. From the perspective of collision safety and lower vehicle weight, research on the collapse characteristics of the structural components used in the car body has been conducted using several materials and various section shapes.…”

In the present study, we aim to achieve sufficient stiffness and safety of the cabin structure to ensure a safe protective space for the passengers in a car crash. Additionally, we aim to obtain quantitative design data on the Al/CFRP composite thin-walled members that have the optimal shock characteristics corresponding to the section shape change, which can absorb significant energy during a car crash. We evaluated the safety performance by examining the energy absorption capability and collapse mode of square, circular, and hat-shaped Al/CFRP composite thin-walled members where in aluminum members with square, circular, and hat-shaped sections, respectively, are combined with CFRP elements. The energy absorption characteristic of the circular Al/CFRP composite impact-absorbing member in which the outermost layer angle was laminated at 0 was observed to be 52.9% and 49.93% higher than that of the square and hat-shaped members, respectively. In addition, the energy absorption characteristic of the circular Al/CFRP composite impact-absorbing member in which the outermost layer angle was laminated at 90 was observed to be 50.49% and 49.2% higher than that of the square and hat-shaped members, respectively.
