The present work was aimed at quantifying the effects of Ni addition in the range of 0–4% together with 0.3%Zr on the hardness and the tensile properties, volume fraction of intermetallics, and changes in size and distribution of phase precipit...

In recent years, there have been an increasing number of examples of using ultrahigh-performance concrete (UHPC) as a pavement layer to form an ultrahigh-performance concrete–normal concrete (UHPC–NC) composite structure to improve the be...

In this study, wettability behavior and the interaction between the K492M alloy and an Al₂O₃ shell were investigated at 1430 °C for 2~5 min. The microstructural characterization of the alloy–shell interface was carried out by optical micros...

Accessible and superior electrocatalysts to overcome the sluggish oxygen evolution reaction (OER) are pivotal for sustainable and low-cost hydrogen production through electrocatalytic water splitting. The iron and nickel oxohydroxide complexes are re...

The effects of various additives (Y₂O₃, Ga₂O₃, and WO₃) on photocatalytic degradation efficiency under UV light-emitting diodes (LEDs) and the optical properties of TiO₂ Degussa P25 were investigated using ketoprofen and diclofenac, two non-steroidal...

High-entropy perovskite materials (HEPMs), characterized by their multi-element composition and highly disordered structure, can incorporate multiple rare earth elements at the A-site, producing perovskites with enhanced CO₂ resistance, making them s...

The light weight and high strength of magnesium alloys have garnered significant attention, rendering them suitable for various applications across industries. Nevertheless, to meet industrial requirements, the mechanical properties must be improved....

This work aims at the determination of the coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) of parts manufactured through the Fused Deposition Modeling process, employing fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors. Pure thermoplastic and composite specimens were built...

Insulating glass units (IGUs) are the most common filling for external building envelopes. These elements have many advantages related to the thermal protection of buildings. However, some climatic loads are generated or modified due to the sealed ga...

Within the scope of these investigations, the feasibility of a material bond between Ti-6Al-4V and the magnesium alloy AZ91 is analyzed. Ti-6Al-4V is frequently used for implants due to its biocompatibility, corrosion resistance, and specific strengt...
