Alumina aerogels doped with PGM nanoparticles are prepared and characterized as candidates for three-way catalysts (TWCs). After heat-treatment at 800 °C the materials maintain low density (∼0.1 g/mL), high surface area (290–460 m2/g) pore volume (1.4–3.6 g/m3), but show some agglomeration of nanoparticles. Pt-, Pd- Rh-alumina TWC activity comparable to a commercial catalyst. Light-off temperatures CO propene by Pd/Al2O3 190 220 (respectively) while NO Rh/Al2O3 aerogel is 250 °C. These...

The construction of a building has been traditionally supported on the timeline schedules activities established in each case, and technical drawings project. A prototype based virtual reality (VR) technology with application to planning, was implemented. This interactive model intends present project three-dimensional (3D) way, connected planning schedule, resulting valuable asset monitoring development activity, designed. 4D considers time factor showing 3D geometry distinct steps...

We report an in-situ laser-based sensor to measure velocity in supersonic gas flows. This makes the quantitative, high-speed measurements characteristic of laser absorption spectroscopy. However, since is physically inserted into flowing gas, are restricted a region interest which independent facility test-section geometry. The targets D1 transition atomic potassium near 770 nm. sensor’s flow-normal projected area 4.5 cm × 1.75 – our knowledge, amongst smallest laser-absorption sensors yet...
