Carbide-based catalysts, MoC and WC embedded in ordered nanomesoporous carbon were developed for the redn. of triiodide in DSSCs. CV, EIS, Tafel polarization, and photocurrent/voltage tests confirm the excellent catalytic activity of the synthesized carbid ...
This thesis is an exploration of deformation and fracture properties of a novel two-phase α2 + γ Ti46Al8Ta (at.%) alloy featuring a "convoluted" microstructure, produced by partners within a European Union project named IMPRESS. Properties of this alloy ar ...
This book presents a refined methodology to predict fatigue life of high-strength steels: Uniform Material Law (UML) for High-Strength Steels. In contrast to other available methods, UML is a handy method as only tensile strength data of metals are needed ...
The goal of this project was to develop low-firing thick-film materials systems for the fabrication of piezoresistive sensors on special steels, for the fabrication of instrumented medical devices. To this end, a series of individual thick-film materials a ...
Oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) steels are candidate materials for advanced electric energy and heat generation plants (nuclear, fossil). Understanding the degradation of mechanical properties of these alloys as a result of service exposure is necessar ...
The paper presents the microstructure and mechanical properties of an oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS), reduced activation, ferritic steel, namely the Fe-14Cr-2W-0.3Ti-0.3Y(2)O(3) alloy, which was fabricated by hot isostatic pressing followed by high sp ...
This article describes the microstructure and Charpy impact properties of an Fe-14Cr-2W-0.3-Ti-0.3Y(2)O(3) oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS)-reduced activation ferritic (RAF) steel, manufactured either from elemental powders or from an Fe-14Cr-2W-0.3Ti p ...
In this present work, a life cycle assessment is realized on Solar Two, a test project of a solar tower thermal power plant. The aim of this study is to quantify the impacts on the environment associated with all the stages from cradle-to-grave (production ...
Recrystallization characteristics of severe cold rolled Cu-0.23 vol%Al2O3 alloy were investigated through the examination of properties and microstructure. A special change of mechanical and physical properties was observed during the annealing process, wh ...
The aim of our experiments was the production of helically coiled carbon nanotubes selectively. The influence of catalytic particles prepared by ball milling (dry and wet method) was investigated on the growth. of coiled carbon nanotubes under conditions. ...
