The VT1 Shape Memory Alloy Heat Engine Design
… interest in the area of heat engines in the late 70's and early 80's. It was believed that these engines could use heat from low temperature sources such as solar heated water, geothermal hot water and rejected heat from conventional engines as a significant source of power. The interest has since …

Electronic structure and transport in low dimensional systems
… in rectification was already suggested in the 70’s, but could be realized till now only with a quiet limited success. Already around the millennium it was shown that a too strong coupling between the components leads to a resymmetrization of the I-V-characteristics. For all systems the …

Geometric Theory of Parshin Residues
In the early 70's Parshin introduced his notion of the multidimensional residues of meromorphic top-forms on algebraic varieties. Parshin's theory is a generalization of the classical one-dimensional residue theory. The main difference between the Parshin's definition and the one-dimensional case …

A Radiative Model for the Study of the Feedback Mechanism between Photolytic Aerosols and Solar Radiation
Since the early 70's chemistry and transport models (ChTMs) have been proposed and improved. Tropospheric ChTMs for trace species are detailed numerical formulations intended to represent the atmospheric system as a whole, accounting for all the individual processes and phenomena that influence …

Palaeomagnetic studies on some South African rocks
… day co-ordinates of Longitude 74½ 0 E, Latitude 70° S. Both normally and reversely magnetized dolerites were found and evidence in favour of a true reversal of the earthts magnetic field is advanced. It is also suggested that in the area studied, the dolerite was intruded in two distinct phases. …
