Tin oxide thin films were deposited by the pulsed laser ablation of a metallic Sn target at different oxygen partial pressures, ranging from 10 to 40 mTorr. Langmuir plasma probe diagnostics were performed to evaluate the effect of pressure on mean k...
Adhesive bonding has emerged as a promising technology for joining carbon fiber reinforced polymer (CFRP) structures in aircraft, offering advantages over traditional mechanical fastening such as weight reduction and uniform stress distribution. This...
The VDA 238-100 tight radius bend test has gained widespread acceptance for plane strain fracture characterization of sheet metals in proportional loading without necking. The VDA test features a 60 × 60 mm2 square blank with a 0.2 mm or 0.4 mm...
This study developed a sonoseeding strategy for controlling the crystal size of acetaminophen during cooling crystallization by introducing sonication into a supersaturated solution, thereby inducing nucleation. Based on the synthetic route of acetam...
Ceramic Matrix Composites (CMCs) have emerged as a structural material alternative to nickel superalloys for high-pressure turbines (HPT) components operating at high temperature, like shrouds. Despite the outstanding thermal stability of the CMCs, l...
Magnesium–sulfur (Mg-S) batteries represent a novel category of multivalent energy storage systems, characterised by enhanced theoretical energy density, material availability, and ecological compatibility. Notwithstanding these benefits, the p...
During long-term storage, polymer-bonded explosives (PBXs) undergo thermal-oxidative aging due to environmental factors such as moisture and oxygen, which leads to a critical determinant of explosive performance. This study employed molecular dynamic...
Atomic-scale strain is the basis of a material’s macroscopic deformation behavior. The current measure of atomic-scale strain in the form of the Green–Lagrange tensor loses its physical meaning beyond the yield point, as atomic neighborho...
A spiral spin arrangement with a magnetic unit cell 28 times the size of the nuclear one has been reported for Fe spins below TN = 80 K in bilayered van der Waals gapped FeOCl. In this work, we employ neutron magnetic diffraction and ac magnetic susc...
Understanding the corrosion mechanism inside waste incinerators is very important in order to prevent possible damage due to high operational temperatures in chemical reactions for burning raw hazardous materials. Moreover, it is critical to understa...
Intrinsic optical bi-stability in dense two-level systems is developed for the bad cavity limit where electromagnetic modes are adiabatically eliminated. Each atom interacts via dipole–dipole forces with its nearby spatial distribution of atoms...
Sodium-ion batteries (SIBs) present a sustainable alternative to lithium-ion systems due to the abundance and low environmental impact of sodium. However, their integration into multifunctional structural battery systems that combine electrochemical...
