Abstract: Loadbearing biological materials such as bone, teeth, and nacre have acquired some interesting mechanical properties through evolution, one of which is the tolerance of cracklike flaws incurred during tissue function, ...

Abstract: With the increasing demands of energy-saving from industries, the low-flow coefficient and low specific speed centrifugal compressors have gained more attention. The design of this type of compressor faced many challenges, ...

Abstract: In situ formation of MoS2 from oil-soluble sulfur-containing organic molybdenum (SOM) additives in lubricating oils is an alternative route of adding MoS2 into oils directly, which is difficult to disperse homogeneously. ...

Abstract: Traditional oil-soluble organic molybdenum (OM) as friction modifiers (FMs) in engine oils contain sulfur and/or phosphorus. Both sulfur and phosphorus are detrimental to the automotive exhaust gas catalysts. Consequently, ...

Abstract: Chronically implanting microelectrodes for high-resolution action potential recording is critical for understanding the brain. The smallest and most flexible electrodes, most suitable for chronic recordings, are also the ...

Abstract: Finish boring is a machining process to achieve the cylinder bore dimensional and geometrical accuracy. The bore cylindricity error sources, including the workpiece thermal expansion and deformation due to cutting and ...

Abstract: The effects of particle size distribution on compacted density of as-prepared spherical lithium iron phosphate (LFP) LFP-1 and LFP-2 materials electrode for high-performance 18650 Li-ion batteries are investigated systemically, ...
