Effect on oxides on surface topography and thermal contact resistance [PDF]
The effect of oxides on the topographies of various random engineering surfaces and steady-state thermal contact resistances between oxidefree and oxidized metallic surfaces in contact in high vacua have been investigated. The results of many previous

Crack growth resistance in nuclear graphite [PDF]
R-curve behaviour is often used for evaluating crack growth resistance in quasibrittle materials but few studies have focused on polycrystalline graphite. In this study, R-curve behaviour in three commercial grade nuclear graphites, of varying structure

Fat oxidation, fitness and skeletal muscle expression of oxidative/lipid metabolism genes in South Asians: implications for insulin resistance? [PDF]
<p><b>Background:</b> South Asians are more insulin resistant than Europeans, which cannot be fully explained by differences in adiposity. We investigated whether differences in oxidative capacity and capacity for fatty acid utilisation

Oxidation Behavior of Quaternary Co-20Re-25Cr-3Si Alloy at Laboratory Air
The iso-thermal oxidation of the quaternary Co-20Re-25Cr-3Si alloy at 1,000–1,200 C under laboratory air for 24 h has been studied. The oxidation kinetics at 1,000–1,200 C follow parabolic law perfectly and the value of oxidation activation energy is 220.

Effect of microcrystallization on the oxidation resistance of Fe-Cr alloy
In order to improve the high temperature oxidation resistance of Fe-Cr alloy, cast Fe-Cr alloys with different Cr contents are treated by electrospark deposition to get microcrystalline structure. The oxidation behavior of as-cast and microcrystalline Fe-
