TL;DR: In this article, the tribological performance and tribochemistry of vacuum deposited nanocrystalline WC/amorphous diamond-like carbon (DLC) composite coatings were investigated and the microstructure critically influenced both the hardness and tribological properties of WC/DLC composites.

TL;DR: A new, to the authors' knowledge, scene-based nonuniformity correction algorithm for array detectors that relies on the ability to register a sequence of observed frames in the presence of the fixed-pattern noise caused by pixel-to-pixel non uniformity.
Abstract: We describe a new, to our knowledge, scene-based nonuniformity correction algorithm for array detectors. The algorithm relies on the ability to register a sequence of observed frames in the presence of the fixed-pattern noise caused by pixel-to-pixel nonuniformity. In low-to-moderate levels of nonuniformity, sufficiently accurate registration may be possible with standard scene-based registration techniques. If the registration is accurate, and motion exists between the frames, then groups of independent detectors can be identified that observe the same irradiance (or true scene value). These detector outputs are averaged to generate estimates of the true scene values. With these scene estimates, and the corresponding observed values through a given detector, a curve-fitting procedure is used to estimate the individual detector response parameters. These can then be used to correct for detector nonuniformity. The strength of the algorithm lies in its simplicity and low computational complexity. Experimental results, to illustrate the performance of the algorithm, include the use of visible-range imagery with simulated nonuniformity and infrared imagery with real nonuniformity.

TL;DR: In this article, multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) were functionalized with 4-methoxybenzoic acid and 4-ETHO-benzosic acid via a Friedel−Crafts reaction in polyphosphoric acid to afford methoxybenzoyl- and ethoxybenzinoyl functionalized MWNTs.
Abstract: Multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) (diameter range, 10−20 nm) were functionalized with 4-methoxybenzoic acid and 4-ethoxybenzoic acid via a Friedel−Crafts reaction in polyphosphoric acid to afford methoxybenzoyl- and ethoxybenzoyl-functionalized MWNTs. As-received MWNT, methoxybenzoyl-functionalized (MeO-MWNT), and ethoxybenzoyl-functionalized (EtO-MWNT) nanotubes were dispersed in ethylene glycol (EG). Because of the structural similarity, the mixture of EtO-MWNT (0.4 wt %) and EG was a homogeneous dispersion, whereas MeO-MWNT and pristine MWNT were dispersed in EG rather heterogeneously at the same loading. In situ polycondensation of EG and terephthalic acid in the presence of pristine MWNT, MeO-MWNT, or EtO-MWNT was carried out to generate the corresponding MWNT/PET, MeO-MWNT/PET, and EtO-MWNT/PET nanocomposites. High molecular weight poly(ethylene terephthalates) (PETs), with intrinsic viscosity range 0.6−0.7 dL/g (o-chlorophenol at 30 ± 0.1 °C), were obtained in all cases. In comparing the images ...
