An overview and categorization of man‐made per‐ or polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFASs) including low‐molar‐mass and high‐molar‐mass fluorochemicals, and their international regulations is presented. Though certain PFASs are toxic, bioaccumulative and cross the human cellular membranes, others, such as fluoropolymers, are safe, reliable and involved in ...

IM7/Cycom 5320‐1 unidirectional prepreg has been used to fabricate 64‐layer laminated composites. A custom‐built six‐magnetron microwave applicator and an autoclave were employed to manufacture the composite panels. Mechanical performance of the microwave‐cured composites has been juxtaposed to autoclave‐cured composites in terms of uniaxial tensile ...

Microphysics and interactions of aerosols and fog on the northwest Atlantic Ocean
In the Grand Banks, aerosol size distributions were bimodal, aerosol and fog droplet concentrations were low, and fogs were shorter (<12 hours). In contrast, near Sable Island, aerosol size distributions had a single broad mode that was likely influenced by continental emissions, corresponding with higher aerosol and droplet concentrations as well as ...

ABSTRACT Corrosion remains a critical threat to the integrity and service life of infrastructure in industries such as oil, gas, construction, renewable energy, and transportation. Traditional inspection methods, being labor‐intensive, hazardous, and often subjective, fall short in addressing modern inspection demands.

ABSTRACT We propose a practical procedure to quantify the time varying influence of parameters on hazard functions for power series compounded lifetime models. The procedure combines likelihood based fitting with a two stage sensitivity analysis and applies to a range of baselines and compounding laws.

Circulant Matrix‐Based Box–Behnken Designs With Economic Run Sizes
ABSTRACT We introduce Circulant Matrix‐Based Box–Behnken Designs (CBBDs), a new class of three‐level, second‐order response surface designs constructed using circulant matrix structures. These designs satisfy an enhanced orthogonal minimally aliased (OMA∗${\rm OMA}^*$) property: they retain the classical OMA property—where main effects are orthogonal ...

Abstract 3D scanning is rapidly becoming a key maintenance tool. Aerospace was a pioneer in adopting 3D scanning technology because aircraft manufacture and maintenance require precision. Monitoring deterioration, removing components for maintenance, and verifying covert operations are not practical or helpful without technology.

How Does Our Degrading System Perform?
ABSTRACT We discuss the quality of performance of degrading systems when degradation is modeled by a stochastic process with independent increments and increasing sample paths. As an example, the gamma process is considered. First, for the continuously observed degradation, by comparing with the black‐box scenario (without observing degradation), the ...
