Durability assessment of natural stone

Quarterly Journal of Engineering Geology and Hydrogeology, 2013
Durability is one of the most significant aspects of the behaviours of natural stone in the real environment. As it is not a fundamental property, it cannot be measured in situ or by using any simple laboratory test.

Natural Gas Converter Performance and Durability

SAE Technical Paper Series, 1993
<div class="htmlview paragraph">Natural gas-fueled vehicles impose unique requirements on exhaust aftertreatment systems. Methane conversion, which is very difficult for conventional automotive catalysts, may be required, depending on future regulatory directions. Three-way converter operating windows for simultaneous conversion of HC, CO, and NO&

Mimic nature, beyond nature: facile synthesis of durable superhydrophobic textiles using organosilanes

Journal of Materials Chemistry B, 2013
Low mechanical stability of superhydrophobic surfaces is the bottle neck we are facing for their practical applications. Here we report facile fabrication of durable superhydrophobic textiles by dip coating in a nanocomposite solution of fluoro-free organosilanes.

What natural variation can teach us about resistance durability

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2020
Breeding a crop variety to be resistant to a pathogen usually takes years. This is problematic because pathogens, with short generation times and fluid genomes, adapt quickly to overcome resistance. The triumph of the pathogen is not inevitable, however, as there are numerous examples of durable resistance, particularly in wild plants.

The nature and durability of wood

1985
Before deciding whether or not to apply preservatives the properties of the timber in question must first be considered in relation to two important aspects. Firstly the durability of the wood must be ascertained and this depends to a large extent on its inherent resistance to fungal and insect attack.
