Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.High‐frequency (HF) welding of steel is limited by oxide inclusions that degrade weld quality. This study demonstrates, for the first time, the integration of a nonthermal Ar/H2 dielectric barrier discharge (DBD) plasma jet into HF welding. Local plasma treatment provides effective shielding and in‐situ oxide reduction, resulting in markedly fewer and ...

Effects of nonequilibrium fluctuations on ultrafast short-range electron transfer dynamics
Nature Communications, 2020 Ultrafast electron-transfer reactions are fundamental to protein functions. Here the authors show that these reaction dynamics are affected by the ruggedness of protein energy landscape, which even modifies the reaction free energy and reorganization ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.A numerical–experimental framework is developed for characterizing multi‐matrix fiber‐reinforced polymers (MM‐FRPs) combining epoxy and polyurethane matrices. Harmonic bending tests are integrated with finite element model updating (FEMU) to simultaneously identify elastic and viscoelastic material parameters.

Predictable properties of fitness landscapes induced by adaptational tradeoffs
eLife, 2020 Fitness effects of mutations depend on environmental parameters. For example, mutations that increase fitness of bacteria at high antibiotic concentration often decrease fitness in the absence of antibiotic, exemplifying a tradeoff between adaptation to ...

Evaluating Energy Absorption Performance of Filled Lattice Structures
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Maximum stress must be considered to robustly evaluate energy absorber designs. This approach was applied to compare all types of absorbers in a single Ashby diagram and determine the utility of filling lattice voids with a second material. High‐performance fillers can improve the performance of lattices that are limited by buckling or catastrophic ...

Surface Roughness in Geomorphometry: From Basic Metrics Toward a Coherent Framework
Remote SensingSurface roughness (SR), most often computed from a digital elevation model (DEM), is a fundamental concept in geomorphometry, with significant applications across the earth sciences and ecology. However, its analysis remains fragmented, lacking a unified

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.New features on yttria‐stabilized zirconia after exposure at 1500°C: Newly discovered pyramidal structures on an old material. After exposure at 1550°C on the cross section of YSZ new features, namely pyramidal structures are discovered. These structures grow with time, increase in numbers, appear as singularities, are often arranged in strings, and ...

Simulation Investigation on the Ruggedness of IGBT During its Short-circuit Turn-off
Kongzhi Yu Xinxi Jishu, 2017 As the chip thickness of IGBT becomes thinner and the current gain becomes lower, the current crowding effect becomes more pronounced during short-circuit turn-off, especially in the self-clamping mode (SCM).

Creating Ti–Fe α/β Alloys by Diffusion‐Driven Solid‐State Processing
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study proposes making alloys containing fast diffusing elements that are difficult to produce by ingot metallurgy, by diffusion‐driven solid‐state HIP processing of elemental powders and low‐temperature homogenisation. Here, novel Fe‐Ti α–β alloys are formed having fine α–β lamellae, a small β prior grain size without significant intermetallics ...
