Implants made of titanium and its alloys are currently widely used in the human body. A series of surface modification methods developed nowadays enable titanium alloy implants to serve effectively in the human body for a long time. This paper review...
Steel and aluminum alloys are used to manufacture the bodies of bulk material handling machines. The aluminum body enables a higher load mass and thus reduces transport costs. However, the greater abrasion of aluminum alloys leads to more frequent re...
Polyurethane (PU) materials, with their excellent mechanical properties, durability, and fatigue resistance, hold promise for addressing the challenges of aging, environmental pollution, and segregation during the storage of modified asphalt mixtures...
The urea electro-oxidation reaction (UOR) is emerging as a new energy conversion technology and a promising method for alleviating water eutrophication problems. However, a rationally designed structure of the electrode materials is urgently required...
Zinc–tin oxide (ZTO) thin films (ZnO)x(SnO2)1−x with different material composition x (0 < x < 1) are deposited by spin coating on glass substrates at room temperature. The Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) data of the precurs...
This study investigates the characteristics of the Ti-5Al-2.5Sn-0.2C alloy, an alpha titanium alloy containing approximately 0.2 wt% carbon—a concentration significantly exceeding the standard allowable limit of 0.08 wt%. The Ti-5Al-2.5Sn-0.2C...
According to the “four-step” braiding technique, this paper analyzed the movement laws of internal space yarns in the projection plane and in space, and established a 3D seven-direction braided composite material solid finite element mode...
In this paper, we investigate the thermal friction sliding contact of a functionally graded piezoelectric material (FGPM)-coated half-plane subjected to a rigid conductive cylindrical punch. This study considers the effect of the thermal convection t...
A shape-controllable laser-engraving treatment (LET) and aramid pulp (AP)-reinforced resin pre-coating (RPC) were used on a titanium (Ti) alloy surface to construct micro-/nano-aramid pulp and epoxy (MAPE) coatings for greater bonding strength with c...
Ti-6Al-4V alloys with a thermal barrier coating (TBC) have been applied in aeronautical components as turbine blades to provide oxidation resistance and thermal protection, enabling higher operating temperatures and extending component lifespan. Rese...
