Adsorption and dissociation of hydrogen molecule on carbon nanotubes
(Bilkent University, 2004)Earlier, it has been suggested that carbon nanotubes can provide high storage capacity and other physical properties suitable for the fuel cell technologies. In this thesis we have investigated adsorption, desorption and ... -
Benefits of forecasting and energy storage in isolated grids with large wind penetration – The case of Sao Vicente
(Elsevier, 2017)For electric grids that rely primarily on liquid fuel based power generation for energy provision, e.g. one or more diesel gensets, measures to allow a larger fraction of intermittent sources can pay-off since the displaced ... -
A first-principles study of defects and adatoms on silicon carbide honetcomb structures
(Bilkent University, 2009)In this thesis a study of electronic and magnetic properties of two dimensional (2D), single layer of silicon carbide (SiC) in hexagonal structure and its quasi 1D armchair nanoribbons are presented by using first-principles ... -
A radiotracer study of the adsorption behavior of aqueous Ba2+ ions on nanoparticles of zero-valent iron
(2007)Recently, iron nanoparticles are increasingly being tested as adsorbents for various types of organic and inorganic pollutants. In this study, nanoparticles of zero-valent iron (NZVI) synthesized under atmospheric conditions ... -
A study of adsorption of single atoms on carbon nanotubes
(Bilkent University, 2003)The adsorption of individual atoms on the semiconducting and metallic singlewall carbon nanotubes (SWNT) have been investigated by using first-principles pseudopotential plane wave method within Density Functional Theory. ...
