The photo-/electrocatalysts with high activities for the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER), oxygen evolution reaction (OER), and the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) are of significance for the advancement of photo-/electrochemical ...

We investigate electrical conduction on ion-induced nanorippled Co0.69Si0.31 surfaces. Oblique Ar+ ion bombardment performed by varying the ion fluence within 1.12 × 10 18- 6.73 × 10 18 ions cm- 2 showed well-ordered ripples ...

The cold spray process is governed by the impact of high velocity feedstock particles onto a substrate without melting. Hence, the bulk material properties are retained. However, it is challenging to achieve good adhesion ...

The characteristics such as high hardness and shear modulus, low thermal conductivity, strain hardening of Nickel-based superalloys lead to high machining forces and temperature, poor surface quality and integrity, rapid ...

Development of facile routes for the fabrication of surface enhanced Raman substrates (SERS) along with optimal conditions for a high enhancement factor are significant from an application perspective of SERS. Despite ...

Urbanisation is a complex global phenomenon driven by unorganised expansion, increased immigration, and population explosion. Changes in land cover are one of the most critical components for managing natural resources and ...

The rapid and accurate determination of the dopamine (neurotransmitter) and cholesterol level in bio-fluids is significant because they are crucial bioanalytes for several lethal diseases, which require early diagnosis. ...

Boron was misconstrued as a toxic element for animals, which retarded the growth of boron-containing drug discovery in the last century. Nevertheless, modern applications of boronic acid derivatives are attractive in ...

This research focuses on the optimization of the performance parameters namely, surface temperature, wear rate, and transmission efficiency of polymer gears. Three different polymers namely, acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, ...

A total of 203 horizontal acceleration time histories recorded between 1986 and 2001 are taken from the Indian strong-motion database and their response spectra for different damping ratios are analyzed, statistically. ...
