Analysis of corrosion fatigue for commercially pure titanium using nitrogen ion implantation
… fatigue life of nitrogen ion implanted CpTi (Nii-Ti). Initially, nine specimens of CpTi were implanted nitrogen ion with the energy of 80, 100 and 115 keV and dose of 0.5x1017, 1.0x1017 and 2.0x1017ions/cm2 to characterize its surface properties and to obtain corrosion resistance. The result …

Spectroscopic study of emergent electronic phases in transition metal based compounds
… particular promise is the magnetic semiconductor NiI₂. The multiferroic state of NiI₂ is characterized by a proper-screw spin helix with given handedness, which couples to the charge degrees of freedom to produce a chirality-controlled electrical polarization. We use a suite of optical technique …

Nitrogen Abundances in Early-Type Be Stars
… line transfer calculations are performed for the Nii ion, the dominant ionization stage in the photospheres of the B stars, and an extensive error analysis is performed via Monte Carlo simulation to determine the achievable accuracy of nitrogen abundances among these stars. To analyze the measured …

Reconcile the Indian, reconcile the nation: Transnational Indian reform in the era of inter-American politics, 1930-1960
… internal tensions and the struggle both the US NII and IAII had in surviving the war. Chapters five and six explore the changing nature of U.S. involvement in the Institute after the war. Chapter Five covers the demise of the US NII and the shifting political nature of the IAII. Chapter Six acts …

Calculated and measured line intensity ratios of singly and doubly ionized nitrogen atoms in hydrogen plasma
The oscillator strengths of several NII and NIII lines in the optical wavelength region are calculated by means of the Coulomb approximation. Atomic processes in a plasma are discussed, as well as two models (LTE and semi-coronal) which can be used to determine the line intensity ratios of …

Full-wave modeling of lower hybrid waves on Alcator C-Mod
… SOL by collisions, it is a strong upshift in the nii spectrum that makes the overall LHCD efficiency low by allowing the waves to Landau damp near the edge. Wavelet analysis of the full-wave fields identified spectral broadening to occur after the waves reflect and propagate in the SOL. This work …

An investigation into the impact of culture on construction project performance
For many years, government backed reports have continued to deplore the poor performance of the construction industry with many projects failing to exceed or live up to the expectations of clients. There is a common belief that the culture of the construction industry is one of the factors that has …
