TL;DR: This study investigates the passive-control-potentials of trees and on-street parked cars on pedestrian exposure to air pollutants in a street canyon using three-dimensional CFD and found tree crown with high porosity and low-stand density in combination with parallel or perpendicular car parking reduced the pedestrian exposure considerably.

TL;DR: In this article, structural, vibrational, resonance and magnetic properties of nanoscale NiO powders prepared by ball milling process under different milling speeds for 30 hours of milling were investigated.
Abstract: We report systematic investigations of structural, vibrational, resonance and magnetic properties of nanoscale NiO powders prepared by ball milling process under different milling speeds for 30 hours of milling. Structural properties revealed that both pure NiO and as-milled NiO powders exhibit face centered cubic structure, but average crystallite size decreases to around 11 nm along with significant increase in strain with increasing milling speed. Vibrational properties show the enhancement in the intensity of one-phonon longitudinal optical (LO) band and disappearance of two-magnon band due to size reduction. In addition, two-phonon LO band exhibits red shift due to size-induced phonon confinement effect and surface relaxation. Pure NiO powder exhibit antiferromagnetic nature, which transforms into induced ferromagnetic after size reduction. The average magnetization at room temperature increases with decreasing the crystallite size and a maximum moment of 0.016 μB/f.u. at 12 kOe applied field and coe...

15 Sep 2007TL;DR: Transmission electron micrographs of the microgels show that the colloidal copolymers are nearly monodisperse spheres (core-shell structures), which suggests that the hydrophobic group of NIPAAm has a greater influence on the LCST than the polar COOH group at those conditions.
Abstract: A new method has been developed to prepare smart copolymer microgels that consist of well defined temperature sensitive cores and pH sensitive shells. The microgels were obtained from N-isopropylacrylamide (NIPAAm) and acrylic acid (AAc), containing different mole ratios of AAc. Transmission electron micrographs of the microgels show that the colloidal copolymers are nearly monodisperse spheres (core–shell structures). The lower critical solution temperatures (LCSTs) (or phase separation temperatures) of the aqueous microgel solutions were measured by cloud-point method. At slight acidic conditions, the LCST decreased with increase in AAc content, which suggests that the hydrophobic group of NIPAAm has a greater influence on the LCST than the polar COOH group at those conditions. An increase of pH value leads to a significant increase in LCST due to the formation of a more hydrophilic copolymer. The LCST were studied as a function of copolymer composition over the pH range from 4.0 to 6.5. Because the p K a of the polymers can be tuned to fall close to neutral pH, these polymer compositions can be dispersed to have phase transitions triggered near physiological pH or at slight acidic pH values that fall within acidic gradients found in biology. Because of their stimuli-responsive behavior, these nanoscale materials are excellent candidates for biotechnology and biomedical applications where small changes in pH or temperature are of great consequence.
