Peroxymonosulfate (PMS) activation is regarded as a powerful method for the degradation of organic pollutants. Carbon materials have attracted much attention for PMS activation toward efficient nonradical oxidation process. The catalytic activity of most nanocarbon materials is usually...

We look into determinants (volatility, crises, sentiment and the U.S. ‘fear’ index) of herding using BRICS as our sample. Investors herd selectively to crises and herding is a short-lived phenomenon. Herding was highest during the global financial crisis (only China was affected). There was...

Fundamental understanding about carbon steam gasification in atomic scale plays a significant role in industry. The reaction mechanism of graphene sheets in a steam environment is simulated at the atomic scale using molecular dynamics with reactive force field. The speed segmentation phenomenon...

Much research has been conducted on the influence of rock burst mechanisms and temperature on the mechanical properties of hard rock while research on the effect of temperature on rock bursts is scarce. Therefore, this paper focuses on Rock Burst Proneness Index tests and acoustic emission (AE)...

Structural–functional integrated materials are one of directions of rapid development for saving-energy materials. Phase Change Materials (PCMs) are latent thermal storage materials possessing a large amount of heat energy stored during its phase change stage. Porous lightweight aggregate...
