Abstract Maintaining constant temperature is of particular importance to the normal operation of electronic devices.Aiming at the question, this paper proposes an optimum design of nanostructures made of high thermal conductive nanomaterials to provide outstanding heat dissipation from the confined interior (possibly nanosized) to the micro-spaces
Writing assessments are an indispensable part of most language competency tests.In our research, we used cross-classified models to study rater effects in the real essay rating process of a large-scale, high-stakes educational examination administered in China in 2011.Generally, four cross-classified models are suggested for investigation of rater
The ability to conserve energy in the presence or absence of oxygen provides a metabolic versatility that confers an advantage in natural ecosystems.The switch between alternative electron transport systems is controlled by the fumarate nitrate reduction transcription factor (FNR) that senses oxygen via an oxygen-sensitive [4Fe-4S]2+ iron-sulfur cl
The resolution of a quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) is particularly crucial for gas sensor applications where low concentrations are detected.This resolution can be improved by increasing the effective surface of QCM electrodes and, thereby, enhancing their sensitivity.For this purpose, various researchers have investigated the use of micro-struc
The question of how people change their opinions through social interactions has been on the agenda of social scientific research for many decades.Now that the Internet has led to an ever greater interconnectedness and new forms of exchange that seem to go hand in hand with increasing political polarization, it is once again gaining in relevance.Mo
