Modification of Structural and Electrical Properties of GDC with Sb3+ Ions
Abstract: Gadolinium doped cerium (GDC) is a potential candidate as electrolyte in the solid oxide fuel cells operating in intermediate temperatures. The optimum performance of GDC is obtained only when sintered at higher temperatures (~1400°C), where cerium is prone to reduction. Improvement in the conductivity and stability of GDC is expected by doping it with trivalent ions. In the present context, successful attempts have been made to synthesize Ce0.8Gd0.1Sb0.1O2-δ by solid …

Modified Double-Diffusive Convection in Viscoelastic Fluid
Abstract: Normal 0 false false false EN-IN X-NONE X-NONE MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Modified double-diffusive convection in viscoelastic fluid of the Veronis’ and Stern’s type configurations is considered in the present paper. Semi-circle theorems that prescribe upper limits for the complex growth rate of oscillatory motions of neutral or growing amplitude are derived. The limits so derived naturally culminate in sufficient conditions which precludes the non-existence of such motions. The results obtained herein significantly …

Modified Joint Test of Heteroscedasticity and Serial Correlation in a Random Effect Panel Data Model under Restricted Alternatives
Abstract: AbstractIn time series econometric theory, the sign of the parameter may be pre-assigned, that is the parameter may be ordered or restricted. Estimation of this restricted parameter is then a vital problem. If we know the parameters are restricted by some constraints, it is reasonable to expect that we should be able to do better by incorporating such additional information than by ignoring them. The paper concerned with estimating and …
