Tribological Properties of Novel Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes and Phosphorus Containing Ionic Liquid Hybrids in Grease

A continuing quest exists to develop high-performance grease capable of meeting extreme demands of high energy efficiency and durability of modern mechanical systems.In this study, multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and ionic liquids (IL) either singly or as a binary additive system were prepared to study the tribological performance of lithium

Discharge hydrograph estimation at upstream-ungauged sections by coupling a Bayesian methodology and a 2-D GPU shallow water model

This paper presents a novel methodology for estimating the unknown discharge hydrograph at the entrance of a river reach when no information is available.The methodology couples an optimization procedure based on the Bayesian geostatistical approach (BGA) with a forward self-developed 2-D hydraulic model.In order to accurately describe the flow pro
