Computational Design of Inhibited Primers

Cole I.S., Sapper E., Chu C., Breedon M., Chen F., CSIRO, AU

This paper reports on the development of computational design of inhibited primers. It is based on a platform that links models from the molecular scale to the engineered object scale ( airplanes). The platform stores [...]

A Novel Optical Waveguide Based Accelerometer

Chen F., Salcic Z., Wang J., The University of Auckland, NZ

A novel accelerometer proposed in this paper utilizes desired advantages which waveguide structure has as its sensor, such as high sensitivity due to photoelastic effect and wide spectral response range. It extends previous research by [...]

Transport Properties For Carbon Nanotubes Under Hydrostatic Pressure

Chen F., Xue Y.Y., Stokes K.L., Wang H., Chu C.W., University of Houston, US

Multi-wall carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were mixed with polystyrene (PS) by 20 wt%, which is close to the percolation threshold. Temperature (T) dependence of Seebeck coefficient (S) and resistance (R) for the sample (MWNT-PS) were measured [...]
