Abstract: The catalyst layer (CL) of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell involves various particles and pores that span a wide range of length scales, from several nanometers to a few microns. The ...

Abstract: The objective of this study is to numerically investigate the effects of the combustion chamber (CC) shapes on the combustion and emission characteristics of the n-octanol fueled compression ignition (CI) engine. At first, ...

Abstract: The stainless-clad bimetallic steel plate (SCBSP) formed by cladding a layer of stainless steel on the surface of a mild steel plate is a solution to improve the corrosion resistance of steel in corrosive environments To ...

Abstract: The process of a concrete target subjected to a tandem warhead was studied by means of field testing and numerical simulation. First, field testing of a shaped charge impacting the concrete target was carried out, in which ...

Abstract: We have established a stable regional geodetic reference frame, designated as SChina20, using approximately 10-year observations (2010–2019) at 40 Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) sites in South China. The regional ...

Abstract: High performance Chinese domestic structural steel (referred to as GJ steel) has been applied to many major construction projects due to its high performance, high yield strength, and good mechanical properties. In this ...

Abstract: Understanding the buckling and post-buckling behavior of rods confined in a finite space is of both scientific and engineering significance. Under uniaxial compression, an initially straight and slender rod confined in a ...

Abstract: This paper presents an experimental and numerical study on the global buckling behavior of welded thick H-section columns of Q460GJ steel under axial load. The thickness of the flange and web is 42 and 25 mm, respectively, ...
