Increasing the Reuse Potential of High‐Strength Steels by Extending the Fatigue Life through Surface Treatments

steel research international, EarlyView.
Surface reconditioning through mechanical and electrochemical polishing is shown to extend the fatigue life of predamaged 42CrMo4 steel by over 12 times. By removing ≈100 μm of surface material, surface‐driven fatigue damage is mitigated. This study introduces a reuse potential metric to evaluate fatigue recovery and support sustainable steel reuse.

Surface Micro‐Discharge Plasma for Multiple Teeth Bleaching: Efficacy, Mechanism and Safety

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is the commonly‐used bleaching chemical in clinical practice, but its excessive concentrations can cause tooth damage. Atmospheric pressure cold plasma is considered a promising new technique for tooth bleaching. Surface micro‐discharge (SMD) devices can generate large‐scale plasma, which holds potential for treating ...

Investigation of the Evolution Mechanism and Multiphysics Coupling in Tree‐Contact Single‐Phase‐to‐Ground Fault

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tree‐contact single‐phase‐to‐ground fault (TSF) is a common and hazardous type of failure in distribution networks. TSF is likely to occur when overhead conductors contact moist tree branches, potentially leading to insulation breakdown, posing serious threats to grid safety.

Temperature Extraction Scheme for Composite Insulator Core Rod Sheath of Overhead Transmission Lines Based on Oriented Bounding Boxes

High Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) inspection of overhead transmission line composite insulators allows for the rapid acquisition of large amounts of infrared images of insulators in service, which can be used to analyse their operational status. However, efficiently and accurately analysing these images remains a challenge.
