Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.Low‐interfacial toughness PDMS/SiO2 coatings are applied to aluminum substrates and tested under natural high‐altitude conditions. The coatings demonstrate strong anti‐icing, icephobic, and large‐scale deicing performance. Field results highlight delayed freezing, reduced ice adhesion, and stable durability, offering practical insights into the use of ...

Abrasive and erosive wear of technical materials
Acta Universitatis Agriculturae et Silviculturae Mendelianae Brunensis, 2011 Operating reliability of agricultural, transport and construction machines is in a considerable degree influenced by corrosion and wear. These sorts of damage significantly influence the costs for the restoration of mechanical components, as well as ...

Self‐Assembling Cracks to Fabricate Antireflective Antifogging Metasurfaces
Advanced Optical Materials, EarlyView.A multifunctional optical device combining antireflective and photothermal antifogging properties is developed by leveraging crack formation in colloidal films. Plasmonic nanoparticle arrays enable localized heating under illumination, while a mesoporous silica coating provides antireflection and water repellency.

How river rocks round: resolving the shape-size paradox [PDF]
, 2013 River-bed sediments display two universal downstream trends: fining, in which particle size decreases; and rounding, where pebble shapes evolve toward ellipsoids. Rounding is known to result from transport-induced abrasion; however many researchers argue that the contribution of abrasion to downstream fining is negligible.

Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.Additive manufacturing, specifically fused deposition modeling, offers an innovative approach to creating 3D‐printed variable orifice flowmeters with integrated temperature compensation. Using carbon‐black TPU, the primary component (a variable orifice) and the secondary element (a diaphragm pressure sensor) are fabricated.

Resistance of modified material surfaces for agricultural tillage tools to wear by soil particles
Metalurgija, 2022 Agricultural tillage tools are exposed to various forms of wear during operation. Abrasive wear by soil particles is the most important wear form, and the most exposed to it are representatives of tools whose working parts are in direct contact with the ...

Advanced Sensor Research, EarlyView.This study introduces a textile‐based capacitive pressure sensor featuring a triangular prism microstructure, which significantly enhances sensitivity to 5.52% kPa−¹ and supports a wide sensing range up to 330 kPa. The sensor's performance is validated in a 4‐channel capacitive pressure‐based force myography (cFMG) armband for gesture recognition ...

Abrasive Wear in The Leg Joints of Insects
Advanced Materials InterfacesThe presence of wear of the joint cuticle of the beetle legs is demonstrated experimentally and is represented by abrasive wear. Presence of the abrasive wear in the natural‐habiting beetles of various families is also established.
