Direct oxidation of formic acid to CO2 using noble-metal-free La0.80Sr0.20CoO3 is demonstrated in this study. The catalyst was able to oxidize HCOOH without any externally applied potential. The activity of La0.80Sr0.20CoO3 ...

Numerical predictions are made for laminar forced and mixed convection heat transfer from a plane vertical isothermal surface to near critical carbon dioxide. The variation of all the thermo-physical properties with ...

Trimming of slopes as a consequence of proliferating economic growth and previously existing structures along anonymous unbalanced slopes has been one of the reasons for originating landslides along hillside areas. Numerous ...

Atmospheric particulate matter (PM) has the potential to diminish solar energy production by direct and indirect radiative forcing as well as by depositing to solar panel surfaces, thereby reducing solar energy transmittance ...

We investigate evolutionary phases of an M6.2 flare and the associated confined eruption of a prominence. The pre-flare phase exhibits spectacular large-scale contraction of overlying extreme ultraviolet (EUV) coronal loops ...

Community-driven Question Answering (CQA) systems such as Yahoo! Answers have become valuable sources of reusable information. CQA retrieval enables usage of historical CQA archives to solve new questions posed by users. ...

The advent of cheap massively parallel computer architectures in accelerators such as Graphical Processing Units (GPUs) has provided an impetus for computing fluid flow and heat transfer problems using particle methods ...
