Evaluation of thermal shock failure mechanism of arc-sprayed Fe-based coatings deposited on different substrates
Weak bonding between coatings and substrates can result in the failure of components subjected to high-temperature fatigue leading to substantial…
Ceramic coatings can suddenly break, but they do not fatigue
Extremely thin ceramic coatings can completely change the properties of technical components. Coatings are used, for example, to increase the…
Robots are helping scientists to understand how insects evolved two distinct flight strategies: synchronous and asynchronous flight.
In synchronous flight, the insect’s brain directly controls each wingstroke. In asynchronous flight, the muscles of the insect’s wings automatically…
Revolutionizing Experiments: Efficient Designs with Zero Autocorrelation Sequences
Orthogonal designs for computer experiments constructed from sequences with zero autocorrelation (also known as orthogonal arrays) are a powerful tool…
Unveiling the Future of Hydrogen Production: CNT-ZnO Core-Shell Photoanodes in Photoelectrochemical Water Splitting
