Impact of MgO Additions on the Oxidation Resistance and Compression Behavior of Vanadium Alloys
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.An increase in oxidation resistance at 600 °C is achieved for alloys containing more than 2.5 wt.% MgO. It has been established that, along with V2O5, MgO6V2, and Mg2O7V2 are formed, which are presumed to enhance oxidative stability. Furthermore, the possible transformation of Mg‐vanadates through reaction with CO2, which presumably occurs in this ...

The Allegory of Isomorphism [PDF]
AVANT. The Journal of the Philosophical-Interdisciplinary Vanguard, 2019 Isomorphism has become a key concept for the analysis of representation in many contexts: perceptual experience, mental imagery, scientific theories, and visual artwork may all be described as standing in isomorphisms to their targets. Yet isomorphism is a technical term from mathematics—how are we to evaluate its use in fields such as philosophy ...

The Failures of Allegory and the Allegory of Failure
, 2021 Studies of allegory are invariably haunted by the slipperiness of the term itself, and it has proven impossible to offer a workable definition of “what allegory is.” In this chapter, I offer some considerations on a family of vernacular literary texts, French and English, that are generally labelled allegorical and were produced in the period c.

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study examines Invar composites reinforced with titanium carbide (TiC) and titanium nitride (TiN) using laser powder bed fusion (LPBF). It presents the influence of reinforcements on microstructure, tensile properties, and thermal expansion. Results show that TiC effectively strengthens Invar while maintaining low thermal expansion, whereas TiN ...
