Effect of Annealing Temperature on Microstructure and Dry‐Sliding Behavior of Powder Bed Fusion–Laser Beam Ti6Al2Sn4Zr6Mo Alloy

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Heat treatment parameters critically affect the wear resistance of powder bed fusion–laser beam (PBF‐LB)‐produced Ti–6Al–2Sn–4Zr–6Mo alloy. This study found that optimizing annealing temperature allows to obtain a tailored microstructure, which enhances the dry‐sliding behavior by forming a stable and functional mechanically mixed layer (MML), ensuring

Greenhouse Module for Space System: A Lunar Greenhouse Design

Open Agriculture, 2017
Abstract In the next 10 to 20 years humankind will return to the Moon and/or travel to Mars. It is likely that astronauts will eventually build permanent settlements there, as a base for long-term crew tended research tasks. It is obvious that the crew of such settlements will need food to survive. With current mission architectures the

Formation of Intermetallic Sludge Phases in AlMgSi Alloys with High Concentrations of Alloying Elements: A Drawback for Increasing Sustainability

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Sludge phases with brittle fracture behavior form in AlMgSi alloys with high concentrations of alloying elements and negatively influence their ductility. The phase type mainly depends on the Si content and the concentration of minor alloying elements like Fe, Mn, Cr, and Mo strongly influences the number of sludge particles. The need for sustainable

Greenhouse: Why a Good Plan Failed [PDF]

, 1986
[Excerpt] In June 1984, Rhode Island voters went to the polls to decide the fate of an ambitious economic revitalization plan. Two years in the making, the plan was based on the most comprehensive study of a single state\u27s economy ever conducted.

Greenhouse Ventilation

EDIS, 2019
Greenhouse ventilation involves removing air from inside the greenhouse and replacing it with outside air. The ventilation may be natural (caused by wind and temperature forces) or mechanical (accomplished by using fans). The purposes of ventilation are to control high temperatures during the summer caused by the influx of solar radiation, to maintain ...

High‐Performance Low‐Emissivity Paints Enabled by N‐Doped Poly(benzodifurandione) (n‐PBDF) for Energy‐Efficient Buildings

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a scalable and colored low‐emissivity (low‐e) paint achieved by spraying an ultrathin n‐doped poly(benzodifurandione) (n‐PBDF) coating onto various colored substrates. The low‐e paint enhances thermal regulation by reducing mid‐infrared thermal emissivity to 0.19, thereby stabilizing indoor temperatures across diverse climates ...

Systematic identification of R2R3-MYB S6 subfamily genes in Brassicaceae and its role in anthocyanin biosynthesis in Brassica crops

BMC Plant Biology
The Brassicaceae family includes Arabidopsis thaliana, various vegetables and oil crops. The R2R3-MYB genes of the S6 subfamily are crucial for regulating anthocyanin biosynthesis, however, their systematic identification in Brassicaceae plants is still ...
