Mathematical Models of Hybrid Vehicle Powertrain Performance

International audienceThe structure of the hybrid powertrain includes an internal combustion engine, the electric motor/generator, electric drive, electric power converter. Electric motors of conventional design and power converting devices are described in the paper. In this paper an attention paid to the mathematical description of an internal combustion engines, as a part of hybrid powertrain component. Following the paper provides brief mathematical description of galvanic energy storage of hybrid powertrain. Introduction. ICE (internal combustion engine) are the most common type of heat engines, in which the heat released during the combustion of fuel is converted into mechanical energy

Concentration Sensitivity of Nucleic Acid and Protein Molecule Detection Using Nanowire Biosensors

The concentration detection limit (DL) of biomacromolecules attainable using a nanowire detector has become a topical issue. A DL of 10−15 M is required to reveal oncological and infectious diseases at an early stage. This study discusses the DL experimentally attainable in the subfemtomolar concentration range, and possible mechanisms explaining such a low-concentration DL through the cooperative effect of biomacromolecular complexes formed on the surface of the nanowire (NW) chip near the nanowire
