AbstractThe structure and the mechanical properties of a cast high-nitrogen austenitic steel are studied after hot and cold deformation. The as-cast steel contains the FeCrB and BN phases. During hot deformation, the B13N13C74 phase forms. This phase has a layered structure and is easily deformed during hot or cold rolling. The existence of the B13...

The semiconductor industry's transition to three-dimensional (3D) logic and memory devices has revealed the limitations of plasma etching in reliable creation of vertical high aspect ratio (HAR) nanostructures. Metal-assisted chemical etch (MacEtch) can create ultra-HAR, taper-free nanostructures in silicon, but the catalyst used for reliable MacEt...
This investigation studies the effects of hot water and hot air curing on the strength development, transport properties, and freeze-thaw resistance of mortars incorporating low-heat blast furnace slag cement and nanosilica (NS). Mortar samples were prepared and stored in ambient conditions for 24 h. After demolding, mortar samples were subjected t...

The major problem in bone tissue engineering is the development of scaffolds which can simultaneously meet the requirements of porous structure, as well as have the ability to guide the regeneration of damaged tissue by biological fixation. Composites containing biodegradable matrix and bioactive filler are the new hope in this research field. Here...

This paper presents, for the first time, the mechanical model and theoretical analysis of free vibration of a spinning functionally graded graphene nanoplatelets reinforced composite (FG-GPLRC) porous double-bladed disk system. The nanocomposite rotor is made of porous metal matrix and graphene nanoplatelet (GPL) reinforcement material with differe...

The roles of hot isostatic pressing (HIP) temperatures (490 °C/100 MPa/2 h, 510 °C/100 MPa/2 h, 530 C/100 MPa/2 h) in the microstructure and properties of AlSi7Cu2Mg alloy step castings with three types wall thicknesses were studied. The experimental results show that HIP at 490 C could effectively eliminate the internal closed porosity of the cast...

Vasculopathy and the consequential ischemia are major medical challenges. Grafting is an effective treatment to vascular occlusion. However, autologous grafting, despite scarcity, is the only choice for small diameter blood vessels. Synthetic grafts can fill the gap if they can work satisfactorily in arterial circulation. Electrospun polycaprolacto...

Nanomaterials have received increased concentration in the field of civil engineering, as their incorporation can effectively modify the mechanical and transport properties of cementitious composites. In this study, to understand the effect of graphene oxide (GO) nanoparticles on the durability and mechanical properties of cementitious composites s...

This work is a phytosociological approach to the montane rainforests of Peru with the aim of advancing on the diversity of plant communities, which we had already begun in previous research. From 364 phytosociological plots and 3389 species of the South American tropics, we have developed a cluster, using the Sørensen index, to know the similaritie...
