Thermal Analysis of Laser Additive Manufacturing of Aluminium Alloys: Experiment and Simulation
(2018)
Laser additive manufacturing (LAM) has become increasingly popular in industry in recent decades because it enables exceptional degrees of freedom regarding the structural design of lightweight components compared to ...
Thermodynamic instability of a nanocrystalline, single-phase TiZrNbHfTa alloy and its impact on the mechanical properties
(2018)
An equiatomic, single-phase TiZrNbHfTa high-entropy alloy was subjected to high-pressure torsion, leading to a grain size below 100 nm. Introducing a nanocrystalline microstructure to the material should help to accelerate ...
Air concentrations and particle–gas partitioning of polyfluoroalkyl compounds at a wastewater treatment plant
(2011)
An air sampling campaign was conducted at a wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) to investigate air concentrations and particle–gas partitioning of polyfluoroalkyl compounds (PFCs). Samples were collected at an aeration tank ...
Spray- and laser-assisted biomaterial processing for fast and efficient autologous cell-plus-matrix tissue engineering
(2015)
At present, intensive investigation aims at the creation of optimal valvular prostheses. We introduced
Nanostructured corrosion sensing coatings for aeronautical applications
(2018)
It is critical for the aeronautical industry that the next generation of smart coatings allows the early detection and continuous monitoring of corrosion. Once corrosion is detected, preventive actions can be taken in order ...
Self-Alignment of Cylinder-Forming Silicon-Containing Block Copolymer Films
(2018)
Well-ordered perpendicular cylinders of star-block copolymers (BCPs) composed of polystyrene and poly(dimethylsiloxane) blocks with high aspect ratio can be achieved by using a combination of architecture effect (entropy ...
Developing a Holistic Approach to Assessing and Managing Coastal Flood Risk
(2015)
It is increasingly recognized that a comprehensive understanding of the existing flood system is necessary to effectively manage coastal flood risk. This involves consideration of the social and ecological dimensions in ...
