A Thin-Film Model to Characterize a Luminescent Solar Concentrator for Higher Efficiency Electricity Generation
DownloadSpring 2023
Jayamaha, Don Jehan Savio Reshon
A Luminescent Solar Concentrator (LSC) is a device that consists of a transparent plate with photovoltaic (PV) cells connected to one or more sides. The transparent plate functions as a waveguide and contains luminescent particles, such as organic dyes or quantum dots. The luminescent particles...

Abrasive Wear Assessment of X70 Steel and Polyurethane Coupons on a Modified Dry/Sand Rubber Wheel Apparatus
DownloadFall 2013
An experimental study was conducted to assess the scratching abrasion in dry and wet environments on X-70 steel and five different types of titanium carbide particulate polyurethane composites (PU). A testing apparatus was constructed based on the dry sand rubber wheel test method standardized by...

Accelerated Zero-stress Hydrothermal Aging of Dry Glass, Basalt, and Carbon Fibers and Service Life Prediction Using Arrhenius Model
DownloadFall 2023
The utilization of fiber-reinforced polymer composites (FRPC) has rapidly increased over the past few decades because of their attractive mechanical properties, comparatively low volumetric mass density, and excellent corrosion resistance compared to traditional engineering materials like steel...
