We have examined the yielding and fracture behavior of Zr57.4Cu16.4Ni8.2Ta8Al10 metallic-glass-matrix composites with a small volume fraction (similar to 4 pct) of ductile crystalline particles under quasi-static uniaxial tension and compression and dynami ...
The main goal of this master is to define and analyse the best layout options for a combined cycle power plant. The gas turbines used for this combined cycle are known. Methods for power augmentation of the gas turbine are considered. Different layouts and ...
Diffusion Brazing (DB) of nickel-based superalloys is a standard joining process widely used in gas turbine industry. The DB technique uses a low melting nickel-based filler material, which contains a rapidly diffusing melting point depressant (MPD) such a ...
Growth of Methanobacterium thermoautotrophicum, an anaerobic archaebacterium using methanogenesis as the catabolic pathway, is characterized by large heat prodn. rates, up to 13 W g-1, and low biomass yields, in the order of 0.02 C-mol mol-1 H2 consumed. T ...
A review and discussion with 59 refs. Schrodinger stated in his landmark book, What is Life, that life feeds on neg. entropy. In this contribution, the validity of this statement is discussed through a careful thermodn. anal. of microbial growth processes. ...
Motivated by applications in orthopaedic and maxillo-facial surgery, the mechanical behaviour of cortical bone tissue in cyclic overloads at physiological strain rates is investigated. The emphasis is on the development of appropriate constitutive laws tha ...
Thermodynamic analysis of the compositional profiles across large chemically-zoned Fe,Ni metal grains in the Bencubbin-like chondrite Queen Alexandra Range (QUE) 94411 suggests that these grains formed by non-equilibrium gas-solid condensation under variab ...
The thermochemical conversion and recycling of hazardous solid waste materials is investigated using high-temperature solar process heat. Two important sources of wastes contaminated with heavy metal oxides are considered: (1) electric are furnace dust (EA ...
An experimental setup to study the pH dependence of standard ion-transfer potentials at the water/NPOE interface is presented. The system is composed of a micro-hole generated by laser photoablation in a 12-μm polyethylene terephthalate film, the aqueous p ...
The Bases of Chemical Thermodynamics: Volume 1 In this volume (volume 1), the fundamental aspects of thermodynamics are presented. The first and second laws of thermodynamics are illustrated. The need to define thermodynamic temperature and the nature of e ...
