Tourism industry plays a significant role in NSW economy, directly contributing $17.3 billion to NSW Gross State Product (GSP) in 2016-17. Adding the indirect impacts of this sector, the total contribution of tourism to the NSW GSP will increase to $34.2 billion in the same year. The globally known attractions such as the Opera House, Bondi Beach and the Harbour Bridge make Sydney the most visited tourist destination in the State, especially for international tourists. The Illawarra region is also a nationally and internationally recognised tourist destination due to its proximity to Sydney, its unique natural resources such as the …

Australian Institute for Innovative Materials - Papers

The strain-mediated magnetoelectric (ME) coupling between piezoelectric (PE) and magnetostrictive (MS) components are established in various connectivities. Discovering new ME connectivity and elucidating the key factors governing the performance of ME composite are of critical importance to find advanced materials for modern electronics. Reported here is a novel ME coupling in 0-1 connectivity. The unique self-assembling ability of 1-dimension crystalline nanocellulose (CNC) nanowhiskers enables the establishment of ME coupling with 0-dimension cobalt ferrite (CFO) nanoparticles without the use of binder. The developed CFO/CNC 0-1 ME composites display a significant ME voltage coefficient (αME) as high as 0.135 mV cm−1 Oe−1. …
