Phase diagrams of four binary blends of polyisobutylene (component 1) and deuterated polybutadiene (component 2) were determined using small-angle neutron scattering (SANS). Our study covers N1/N2 ...

State estimation is applied to process a set of measurements which are assumed to be taken at the same snapshot in time to obtain a best estimate of the states of electric power systems. The ...
