Metal–metal bonds in biology [PDF]

Journal of Inorganic Biochemistry, 2012
Nickel-containing carbon monoxide dehydrogenases, acetyl-CoA synthases, nickel-iron hydrogenases, and diron hydrogenases are distinct metalloenzymes yet they share a number of important characteristics. All are O(2)-sensitive, with active-sites composed of iron and/or nickel ions coordinated primarily by sulfur ligands.

First‐Principles Modeling of Solid Solution Softening and Hardening Effects in Al–Mg–Zr–Si Aluminum Alloys

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The role of various alloying elements in face‐centered cubic aluminum on the barrier of a Shockley partial dislocation during its motion is presented. The study aims to understand how alloying atoms such as Mg, Si, and Zr affect the energy landscape for dislocation motion, thus influencing the solid solution hardening and softening in aluminum, which ...

Filter Design for Estimation of Stellar Metallicity: Insights from Experiments with Gaia XP Spectra

The Astrophysical Journal Letters
We search for an optimal filter design for the estimation of stellar metallicity, based on synthetic photometry from Gaia XP spectra convolved with a series of filter-transmission curves defined by different central wavelengths and bandwidths.

Antimicrobial Titanium–Copper Alloys: The Role of Microstructure in Arc‐Melted Compositions

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Copper‐containing titanium alloys show promise in combating orthopedic implant infections. This study explores the influence of heat treatment on Ti‐11.5Cu and Ti‐33Cu alloys, revealing that larger Ti2Cu precipitates (≈5 μm) enhance antimicrobial efficacy through increased surface contact. Results suggest contact sterilization is the primary mechanism,

High‐Temperature Oxidation of the CrFeNi Medium‐Entropy Alloy

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The oxidation behavior of equiatomic CrFeNi MEA is a key issue that determines this material's suitability for high‐temperature application. The understanding of long‐term behavior is even more crucial than short‐term corrosion effects. The alloy is exposed to synthetic air at 1000, 1050, and 1100 °C for 24, 100, and 1000 h and systematically compared ...

Investigation of 3D Wave Propagation in Foam‐Core Functionally Graded Material Magneto‐Piezoelectric Smart Nanoplates

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study reveals how wave propagation in FG‐MEE nanoplates can be tuned via material gradients, porosity, and external fields. Using NSGT and Hamilton's principle, analytical solutions capture key dispersion behaviors. Findings highlight the potential of smart nanoplates for adaptive control in high‐performance applications like sonar and aerospace ...
