TL;DR: In this paper, a dispersion of graphite in N-methylpyrrolidone was used to synthesize poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) nanocomposite hydrogels containing graphene.
Abstract: Frontal polymerization has been successfully used to synthesize poly(N-isopropylacrylamide) nanocomposite hydrogels containing graphene. The latter was directly achieved by ultrasound treatment of a dispersion of graphite in N-methylpyrrolidone. The dispersion, having the concentration of 2.21 g L−1, was characterized by TEM analysis and mixed with suitable amounts of N-isopropylacrylamide for the synthesis of graphene-containing nanocomposite polymer hydrogels. The nanocomposite hydrogels were analyzed by SEM and Raman spectroscopy, and their swelling and rheological properties were investigated. It was found that graphene strongly influences the swelling ratio, dramatically increasing it, even if present in small amounts. Finally, the rheological properties of the hydrogels were correlated with the graphene content: G′ modulus and complex viscosity were found to increase with increasing nanofiller concentration, thus indicating the occurrence of good interactions between the two phases. Nevertheless, at a high concentration (i.e., 0.13 wt.%), graphene showed a lubrication effect, lowering the rheological parameters and approaching the same pseudoplastic behaviour of the unfilled material.

07 Oct 2009TL;DR: The design, development and experimental evaluation of gt, an open source software toolset for associating ground truth information with Internet traffic traces, show that gt's effectiveness comes at little cost in terms of overhead on the hosting machines.
Abstract: Much of Internet traffic modeling, firewall, and intrusion detection research requires traces where some ground truth regarding application and protocol is associated with each packet or flow. This paper presents the design, development and experimental evaluation of gt, an open source software toolset for associating ground truth information with Internet traffic traces. By probing the monitored host's kernel to obtain information on active Internet sessions, gt gathers ground truth at the application level. Preliminary experimental results show that gt's effectiveness comes at little cost in terms of overhead on the hosting machines. Furthermore, when coupled with other packet inspection mechanisms, gt can derive ground truth not only in terms of applications (e.g., e-mail), but also in terms of protocols (e.g., SMTP vs. POP3).

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors make a comparison of the potential of the LCA tool and the environmental needs of the design team and conclude that LCA is not an adequate tool for the designer, because its utility in the design process is limited to an analysis of existing products or well defined products.
