Forest decline played a pivotal role in motivating Europe's political focus on sustainability around 35 years ago. Silver fir (Abies alba) exhibited a particularly severe dieback in the mid-1970s, but disentangling biotic from abiotic drivers remained chal ...
The wetting of angular alumina particle preforms by Cu-Sn alloys is investigated by means of pressure infiltration experiments conducted at 1150 A degrees C, using a system enabling dynamic and precise measurements of the metal volume injected into the pre ...
Japan Atomic Energy Agency (JAEA) has fabricated and tested the four conductor samples composed of high performance strands manufactured by the bronze-route process for the ITER Central Solenoid (CS) conductor. The current sharing temperature (Tcs) electri ...
First-principles, spin-polarized local-density-functional calculations are used to model interstitial iron (Fei) and its complexes with substitutional aluminum in dilute SixGe1−x alloys (x
Ta and Ti are the most widely used additions for technical Nb3Sn multifilamentary superconductors. These elements are known to influence grain growth, grain morphology and chemical composition in the A15 layer, hence the current carrying properties of the ...
We have analyzed the influence of the two different Ti doping methods on the superconducting properties of bronze processed (Nb,Ta,Ti)3Sn multifilamentary wires with identical configuration, consisting of a Nb7.5wt.%Ta alloy processed to 14641 filaments of ...
