Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Incorporating nanosized silver into titanium for antimicrobial materials exploits the metastable miscibility gap between silver and titanium. Silver nanoparticles are synthesized via pulsed laser ablation in liquid. Silver addition refines the microstructure, increases hardness by 30%, and reduces Staphylococcus capitis microbial adhesion by 70%, with ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A hybrid system for de‐icing made of gradient polymer coatings, deposited on aluminum coupled with an electromechanical system, is demonstrated as an effective and durable strategy for reducing drastically ice adhesion. The system is capable of detaching ice blocks over the coating in less than 1 s, regardless of the ice type and covered area ...

Der (Mehr-)Wert der Wissenschaftskommunikation [PDF]
, 1994 In research on scientific communication there are above all theory‑less and formal technical/ natural scientific models of scientific communication. These are juxtaposed to social‑scientific, power‑sensitive models (Elias, Bourdieu, Merton). The (surplus)

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study investigates the bond quality of co‐extruded aluminum–titanium hybrid profiles, focusing on the lateral angular co‐extrusion (LACE) process. It examines how heat treatments (HT) affect intermetallic phase formation, bond strength, and material properties.

Social and Economic Decline as Factors in Conflict in the Caucasus [PDF]
We argue that the conflicts in the Caucasus are the result of the abrogation by the elite of the earlier, Soviet era, social contract. This process was accompanied by the collapse of the formal economy; evidenced by huge national income compression ...
