Deformation Behavior of La2O3‐Doped Copper during Equal Channel Angular Pressing

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
By additions of strengthening elements and/or structure optimization, the mechanical properties of copper can be increased while keeping favorable electric conductivity. By combining addition of La2O3 and processing by equal channel angular pressing, substructure development is achieved, leading to increase in microhardness to more than double the ...

BIPOC Community Perspectives on Environmental Justice in Georgia

open access: yesJournal of Community Engagement and Scholarship
For decades, the environmental and climate justice spaces have been predominantly spearheaded by white activists and institutions, even as Black, Brown, and immigrant communities experience the brunt of climate change’s impact. The resulting exclusion of

On the Rigidity and Mechanical Behavior of Triply Periodic Minimal Surfaces‐Based Lattices: Insights from Extensive Experiments and Simulations

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study examines the mechanical properties of triply periodic minimal surfaces (TPMS)‐based lattices, analyzing 36 architectures in elastic and plastic regimes. It evaluates the applicability of beam‐based scaling laws to TPMS lattices. Rigidity arises from the alignment of members with the load direction and solid regions preventing rotation.

The Possibility of a Pluralist Commonwealth Evolutionary Reconstruction Toward a Caring and Just Political Economy

open access: yesInterdisciplinary Journal of Partnership Studies, 2017
New developments at various level of the political-economic system suggest possible institutional trajectories supportive of community, and a longer term systemic design more supportive of strong democracy and a caring culture.

Propaganda and Democracy

open access: yesTHEORIA. An International Journal for Theory, History and Foundations of Science, 2016
We are surrounded by communication of many kinds whose aim is to persuade rather to convince, to manipulate rather than to reason. We are being constantly manipulated into forming beliefs or attitudes, or to have feelings of certain kinds; or beliefs and attitudes we already have, but ought to criticize and perhaps reject, are instead being reinforced ...

Enhancing Corrosion Resistance and Mechanical Strength of 3D‐Printed Iron Polylactic Acid for Marine Applications via Laser Surface Texturing

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Laser surface texturing significantly improves the corrosion resistance and mechanical strength of 3D‐printed iron polylactic acid (Ir‐PLA) for marine applications. Optimal laser parameters reduce corrosion by 80% and enhance tensile strength by 25% and ductility by 15%.

Democracy Through Multi-Body Sortition: Athenian Lessons for the Modern Day

open access: yesJournal of Deliberative Democracy, 2013
Mature Classical Athenian democracy is presented as a representative system, rather than the commonly described form of “direct democracy.” When viewed in this way, the commonly assumed problem of scale in applying Athenian democracy to modern nation ...

Influence of Laser Strategies on Performance of Lattice Structures from Magnesium Alloy WE43 Produced by Laser Beam Powder Bed Fusion

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The body‐centered‐cubic lattice structures from magnesium alloy WE43 with high relative material density (99.5%), fine microstructure, high mechanical properties (effective elastic modulus of 136 MPa), and material properties (Young's modulus of 40 GPa) are produced by laser beam powder bed fusion using hatch strategy with skywriting.
