Abstract: Fly ash generated from waste incineration contains hazardous substances such as heavy metals and small amounts of dioxins. Incineration plants in Taiwan stabilized fly ash by mixing it with a heavy-metal chelating agent, ...

Abstract: Additive manufacturing (AM) is a manufacturing method that can build high-strength materials layer-by-layer to form complex geometries. Previous studies have reported large variations in the mechanical properties of materials ...

Abstract: The current density distribution in a line-to-bump structure as a function of cross-sectional area ratio of the electrical conductor was investigated, as well as the effects of current crowding ...

Abstract: An optimal or near to optimal design and operation of a direct liquid fuel cell (DLFC) stack requires an understanding of the relevant physical phenomena across length scales in the stack. In particular, perturbations ...

Abstract: Pipeline vibration induced by fluid flow can cause pipeline fatigue damage, which seriously endangers the safety of the operation. This paper aims to clarify the dynamic variation law of pipeline vibration induced by ...

Abstract: Temperature history prediction is essential for a better understanding of the relationship between microstructural change and processing conditions for energy beam additive manufacturing fabricated components. Here, a new ...

Abstract: Laser-induced chemical solution synthesis has been recently developed as a new generic method to create porous nanostructured materials for complex and miniaturized devices. The material made by this approach is successfully ...

Abstract: The existing fractal contact model fails to solve the problem of online real-time irregular curvilinear contact under mixed lubrication conditions. In this study, a novel arbitrary curve contact model is established, ...
