An Overview of Heavy-ion Collisions
Abstract: AbstractA large number of experiments have been performed to explore the heavy-ion collisions dynamics using accelerator facilities available in India. The experimental results have revealed that in reactions induced by nucleons or light particles at energies of the order of a few tens MeV, the great majority of the processes one observes are of statistical nature though they cannot be interpreted as a consequence of the decay of a fully …

Modeling of Transformer Windings having Non-uniform Inductance Distribution
Abstract: A direct analytical procedure for analyzing power transformer windings with location-dependent series inductance is presented. This dependence is typically introduced in order to take the inter-turn mutual inductive coupling into consideration. The paper addresses the frequency domain analysis conducted in the complex s- or the jω-domains. Results for the frequency-dependent winding’s input impedance with different treatments of the transformer’s neutral point will be available. The frequency characteristics including the resonance …

Production of Renewable fuel from a high invasive risk native plant
Abstract: Petroleum has been the transportation fuel of choice for more than a century now, but it’s not the only fuel that can run our cars and trucks. Some of the most promising replacements for oil come from organic biomass, including crops such as corn, switch grass, eucalyptus, soybeans and algae, wood, the main sources for the renewable fuels in use today. Bioethanol and Biodiesel are the most widely used renewable …

Source of energy used to produce synthetic fuels is renewable energy
Abstract: The search for the next major energy solution is undoubtedly underway as oil and fossil fuel resources are depleting globally. It is possible that there won’t be a perfect energy that is always available and does not destroy the environment, nor will there be a panacea to the world’s energy problems. When opposed to traditional oil-based fossil fuels, synthetic fuels, also known as synfuels, provide both benefits and cons. All …
