Fretting Corrosion Performance Evaluation of Uncoated Cladding, Cr Coating Cladding and AlCrNbSiTi Coating Cladding

open access: yesAlloys, 2023
In pressurized water reactors (PWRs), flow-induced vibration (FIV) induces the fretting wear of fuel rods and supporting grids, and the process is accompanied by corrosion, which is called fretting corrosion. In this paper, fretting corrosion experiments

Monumental arrangements of the Łysa Góra ceramic panels in the decoration of church buildings

open access: yesSacrum et Decorum, 2021
Ceramic panels produced since 1960 in the “Kamionka” cooperative in Łysa Góra are one of the most versatile materials used for architectural decorations. They made it possible to create small “ceramic accents” as well as large-scale and monumental works.
