What are some Q1 journals to publish research work on natural fibers ?

Hi,

I am interested in calculation dielectric function of bulk materials. I have seen there are many ways to do that e.g, DFT epsilon.x, yambo Independent Particle: Random Phase Approximation, yambo BSE. Would someone please explain me the basic difference among the ways to calculate dielectric function?

Thanks

As far as my understanding goes, the intention of alkali treatment is to remove non-cellulosic hemicellulose, lignin, wax and other impurities and enhance the surface roughness and crystallinity. The molecular chains of cellulose rearrange themselves into closely packed long chain, thereby increasing the crystallinity. When non-cellulosic components that seal the gap between the microfibrils are removed the surface roughness increase.

However, when non-cellulosic components like hemicellulose and wax are removed, that exposes more hydrophilic cellulose to water. Also, lignin is hydrophobic, when it is removed all we have a hydrophilic cellulose.

In Scopus, we can check the paper indexed in Scopus or nor? I do not know how to check the paper indexing in SCI and SCIE.

Hello to the colleagues, I wanted to ask a question that how long it takes to a Scopus indexed scientific paper to be indexed in it?

Hi

I keep getting the following error message when I run any Abaqus job:

There are no .lck files to be deleted and everyone else using our academic license seems to be unaffected. Occasionally, I can run a model through writing an input file and running through command prompt. Although even this doesnt work everytime, when I check the dat file I get the following error message:

Any help would be greatly appreciated as my work is getting delayed a bit and I have no idea what to do!

Kind Regards

Alex

What properties of the resin material need to be considered in Abaqus simulations, particularly within the framework of explicit dynamics to ensure accurate and reliable results?

How long (approximately) would it take to learn DFT calculations from scratch so as to be able to obtain the first reasonable results? The aim would be to design materials with intended properties (for example, topological materials or thermoelectrics).

The starting point would be basic knowledge of quantum mechanics from a master's studies in chemistry and the basic skills in programming using c++ language.

I added prestress in my inp file, and this error occurs. And when I comment that line, this error disappears.
