Despite the rapid development of electric vehicles (EVs), the limited range and accessibility of charging infrastructure are still obstacles to the development of EVs. At present, the Chinese government has made great efforts to set up charging piles and the most popular construction mode of...

This paper uses longitudinal microdata from the Statistics Canada National Longitudinal Survey of Children and Youth (NLSCY) to study the family income dynamics of Canadian children from the time they are 4 or 5 until they are 14 or 15. Dynamics of family income have been studied less often than...

Semi-encapsulated microfiber Mach-Zehnder interferometer is designed and developed for temperature, salinity and pressure (TSP) sensing in seawater. Based on the theoretical analysis, sensing experiment is performed with typical sensitivities of -2312 pm/℃, 631 pm/‰, and 3775 pm/MPa,...

Multifunctional electrocatalysts are desirable for overall water splitting in the energy conversion and storage fields. In this work, N, S-co-doped carbon nanotubes (CNT-NS) were obtained using a superior cost-effective method. The low-cost multi-walled CNTs were activated under a standard air...
