Insights Into the Temperature‐Dependent Oxidation Mechanism of Metallic Cerium in H2O‐N2 Atmospheres

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Metallic cerium (Ce), a widely used surrogate for actinide metals, enables mechanistic studies of reactions in complex gas environments under controlled and safer laboratory conditions. Here, the oxidation behavior of Ce in H2O‐N2 mixed atmospheres was investigated from 200°C to 350°C using in situ thermogravimetry–mass spectrometry, in situ X‐

The Formation and Hardening Mechanisms of Multiscale Gradient Structures Tailoring by Explosive Hardening and Annealing in Commercially Pure Titanium

Rare Metals, Volume 45, Issue 8, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Gradient structures (GS) introduced by plastic deformation have been shown to effectively enhance the surface properties of metallic materials. However, the GS fabricated by existing methods often suffers from limited hardening depth and limited control over the GS layer, which constrain their engineering applications.

Revitalizing Traditional Tank Systems: Case Study Insights From Sri Lanka's Village Tank Cascade Systems for Climate Resilience and Water Governance

World Water Policy, Volume 12, Issue 3, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Village tank cascade systems (VTCS) are a long‐established form of water management in Sri Lanka's dry zone. However, their role in groundwater recharge, climate adaptation, and water governance remains insufficiently recognized in policy and planning.
