The principle of operation and manufacturing techniques are introduced for a calorimetric H₂O₂ gas sensor based on porous MnO₂. Results from surface analyses by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) of the catalytic material provide indication of the H₂O₂ dissociation reaction schemes. The correlation between theory and the experiments is documented in numerical models of the catalytic reaction. The aim of the numerical models is to provide further information on the reaction kinetics and performance enhancement of the porous MnO₂ catalyst.}, language = {en} } @article{StadlerGarveyBocahutetal.2012, author = {Stadler, Andreas M. and Garvey, G.

The experimental results from Hb solutions revealed a direct correlation between protein resilience, melting temperature and average body temperature of the different species on the 0.1 ns time scale. Molecular forces appeared to be adapted to permit conformational fluctuations with a root mean square displacement close to 1.2 {\AA} at the corresponding average body temperature of the endotherms. Strong forces within crocodile Hb maintain the amplitudes of motion within a narrow limit over the entire temperature range in which the animal lives. In fully hydrated powder samples of human and chicken, Hb mean square displacements and effective force constants on the 1 ns time scale showed no differences over the whole temperature range from 10 to 300 K, in contrast to the solution case. A complementary result of the study, therefore, is that one hydration layer is not sufficient to activate all conformational fluctuations of Hb in the pico- to nanosecond time scale which might be relevant for biological function. Coarse-grained Brownian dynamics simulations permitted to explore residue-specific effects. They indicated that temperature sensing of human and chicken Hb occurs mainly at residues lining internal cavities in the β-subunits.}, language = {en} } @article{Laack2014, author = {Laack, Walter van}, title = {Therefore Fermat is right}, series = {American journal of humanities and social sciences : AJHSS}, volume = {2}, journal = {American journal of humanities and social sciences : AJHSS}, number = {2}, issn = {2329-079X (E-Journal); 2329-0781 (Print)}, pages = {117 -- 120}, year = {2014}, abstract = {It was Fernat's idea to investigate how many numbers would fulfill the equation according to the Pythagorean Theorem if the exponent were increased to random, e.g. to a3 + b3 = c3. His question became therefore: are there two whole numbers the cubes of which add up to the volume of the cube of a third whole number? He posed this same question, of course, for all kinds of higher exponents, so that the equation could be generalized: is there an integral solution for the equation an + bn = cn, if the exponent n is higher than 2? Although in 1993, the English mathematician Andrew Wiles was able to produce an arithmetical proof for Fermat's famous theorem, I will show that there is a simple logical explanation which is also pragmatic and plausible and what is the result of a fundamental alternative idea how our world seems to be constructed.}, language = {en} } @article{CiobanuStaatRahimi2008, author = {Ciobanu, Octavian and Staat, Manfred and Rahimi, Alireza}, title = {The use of open source software in biomechanical finite element analysis}, series = {Buletinul Institutului Politehnic din Ia{\c{s}}i / Universitatea Tehnică Gh.

The problem of bacterial contamination of inner parts of such a type of air conditioners in some cases draws attention towards alternative air-cleaning systems. Some manufacturers offer to use the ozone's bactericidal and deodorizing effects, but the wide spreading of such systems is restricted by the fact that toxic effects of ozone in respect of human beings are well known. In 2000 Sharp Inc. introduced "Plasma Cluster Ions (PCI)" air purification technology, which uses plasma discharge to generate cluster ions (I 0-14 ). This technology has been developed for those customers that are conscious about health and hygiene. In our experiments, we focused on some principal aspects of plasma-generated ions application - time-dependency and irreversibility of bactericidal action, spatial and kinetic characteristics of emitted cluster particles, their chemical targets in the microbial cells.}, subject = {Clusterion}, language = {en} } @article{DigelZhubanovaNojimaetal.2004, author = {Digel, Ilya and Zhubanova, Azhar A. and Nojima, H. and Artmann, Gerhard}, title = {The use of bactericidal effects of cluster ions generated by plasma in medical biotechnology}, series = {Biotechnologija : teorija i praktika (2004)}, journal = {Biotechnologija : teorija i praktika (2004)}, isbn = {1028-9399}, pages = {46 -- 52}, year = {2004}, language = {en} } @article{StulpeBusch2008, author = {Stulpe, Werner and Busch, Paul}, title = {The structure of classical extensions of quantum probability theory}, series = {Journal of Mathematical Physics. 49 (2008), H. 3}, journal = {Journal of Mathematical Physics. 49 (2008), H. 3}, isbn = {1089-7658}, pages = {1 -- 22}, year = {2008}, language = {en} } @article{Dikta2000, author = {Dikta, Gerhard}, title = {The Strong Law under Semiparametric Random Censorship Models}, series = {Journal of Statistical Planning and Inference. 83 (2000), H. 1}, journal = {Journal of Statistical Planning and Inference. 83 (2000), H. 1}, isbn = {0378-3758}, pages = {1 -- 10}, year = {2000}, language = {en} } @article{SchaeferLampey1988, author = {Sch{\"a}fer, Horst and Lampey, H.}, title = {The stray-field structure of a HI-B sheet in the vicinity of laser scratches}, series = {Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials. 75 (1988), H. 3}, journal = {Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials. 75 (1988), H. 3}, isbn = {0304-8853}, pages = {339 -- 344}, year = {1988}, language = {en} }
