America's other Muslims: Imam W.D. Mohammed, Islamic reform, and the making of American Islam Black diasporic worlds./ Muhammad Fraser-Rahim.
No full textIncludes bibliographical references (pages 111-125) and index.Fraser-Rahim spotlights the emergence of an American school of Islamic thought, which was created and established by the son of the former Nation of Islam leader. W.D. Mohammed rejected his father's teachings and embraced normative Islam on his own terms while balancing classical Islam and his lived experience of Islam in the diaspora.Intro -- Contents -- Acknowledgments -- Preface -- Introduction -- 1.

Reynolds number dependence of the dimensionless dissipation rate in stationary magnetohydrodynamic turbulence
No full textResults on the Reynolds number dependence of the dimensionless total dissipation rate C_ε are presented, obtained from medium to high resolution direct numerical simulations (DNSs) of mechanically forced stationary homogeneous magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence in the absence of a mean magnetic field, showing that C_ε -> const with increasing Reynolds number. Furthermore, a model equation for the Reynolds number dependence of the dimensionless dissipation rate is derived from the real-space energy balance equation by asymptotic expansion in terms of Reynolds number of the second- and third-order correlation functions of the Elsässer fields z± = u ± b. At large Reynolds numbers we find that a model of the form C_ε = C_ε,∞ + C/R describes the data well, while at lower Reynolds numbers the model needs to be extended to second order in 1/R in order to obtain a good fit to the data, where R is a generalised Reynolds number with respect to the Elsässer field z-

Evaluation Of Brazilian Woods As An Alternative To Oak For Cachaças Aging
No full textCachaça was aged for 6 months in small casks of oak and eight different Brazilian woods (amarelo, amendoim, balsamo, jatoba, louro, pau d'arco, pau d'oleo, and pereiro) in order to determine total phenols, UV-visible spectra differences, and sensorial acceptance. Also used were 200-l casks of oak and pereiro for aging cachaça for 4 years to characterize sensorial descriptors and acceptance. The results suggest that amendoim and pereiro followed by jatobá are good candidates to replace oak in the construction of cachaça aging casks. It was also observed that when using oak casks as a standard the major changes in the sensory properties occurred in the first 21 months of aging. The principal components analysis of UV-visible absorption spectra of the same beverage stored in casks made of different woods allowed identification of the wood in which the beverage had been aged. © Springer-Verlag 2003.21818387(2001) Cachaça: The Authentic Brazilian Drink, , ABRABE, São PauloNascimento, R.F., Cardoso, D., Lima-Neto, B.S., Franco, D.W., (1998) Chromatography, 48, pp. 758-762Boscolo, M., Lima-Neto, B.S., Franco, D.W., (1995) Engarrafador Mod, 41, pp. 30-33Lima-Neto, B.S., Bezerra, C.W.B., Polastro, L.R., Campos, P., Nascimento, R.F., Furuya, S.M.B., Franco, D.W., (1994) Quím Nova, 17, pp. 220-224Nascimento, R.F., Marques, J.C., Lima-Neto, B.S., Franco, D.W., (1997) J Chromatography, 782, pp. 13-16Bettin, S.M., Isique, D.I., Franco, D.W., Andersen, M.L., Knudsen, S., Skibsted, L.H., (2002) Eur Food Res Technol, 215, pp. 169-175Cardello, H.M.A.B., Faria, J.B., (1997) Bol CEPPA, 15, pp. 87-100Cardello, H.M.A.B., Faria, J.B., (1998) Ciênc Tecnol Aliment, 18, pp. 169-175Faria, J.B., Deliza, R., Rossi, E.A., (1998) Ciênc Tecnol Aliment, 13, pp. 90-93Nishimura, K., Matsuyama, R., Maturation and maturation chemistry (1989) The Science and Technology of Whiskies, pp. 235-263. , Piggott JR, Sharp R, Duncan REB (eds).

Reliability of Organic Compounds in Microelectronics and Optoelectronics: From Physics-of-Failure to Physics-of-Degradation
No full textThis book aims to provide a comprehensive reference into the critical subject of failure and degradation in organic materials, used in optoelectronics and microelectronics systems and devices. Readers in different industrial sectors, including microelectronics, automotive, lighting, oil/gas, and petrochemical will benefit from this book. Several case studies and examples are discussed, which readers will find useful to assess and mitigate similar failure cases. More importantly, this book presents methodologies and useful approaches in analyzing a failure and in relating a failure to the reliability of materials and systems.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository 'You share, we take care!' - Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Electronic Components, Technology and Material
LED-Based Luminaire Color Shift Acceleration and Prediction
No full textColor stability is of major concern for LED-based products. Currently, much effort is done on lumen maintenance, and for color shift, no agreed method currently exists, be it from testing or from prediction side. To investigate the physics of color shift, we present experiments of each individual part failure of each individual part that are present in LED-based products. In order to develop a color shift prediction method, it is imperative to investigate the color shift contribution by each individual part. We present a new method to predict color shift on a system level, which we named the view factor approach. We compare this prediction method with experiments on luminaire level to conclude that we have taken satisfactory first steps in the field of color shift predictions for LED-based systems.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Electronic Components, Technology and Material
Statistical Analysis of Lumen Depreciation for LED Packages
No full textCommercial claims for LED-based products in terms of lumen maintenance are fully based on TM-21 extrapolations using LM-80 data. This chapter indicates that there may be a risk in doing this as TM-21 only relies on the behavior of the average LED degradation, instead of taking into account the degradation of all individual LEDs. Therefore, we propose a more profound statistical approach in order to make the appropriate step from TM-21 extrapolation to lumen maintenance on a product level. This is needed as some commercial claims are based on 10 years of warranty and some service bids provide periods of 20–25 years of operation. This chapter reviews the different approaches currently available to perform lumen maintenance extrapolations.Green Open Access added to TU Delft Institutional Repository ‘You share, we take care!’ – Taverne project https://www.openaccess.nl/en/you-share-we-take-care Otherwise as indicated in the copyright section: the publisher is the copyright holder of this work and the author uses the Dutch legislation to make this work public.Electronic Components, Technology and Material
