Recycling of NiTi Shape Memory Alloys: Fundamental and Technological Aspects of a Vacuum Induction Melting Processing Route

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The present study investigates recycling of NiTi shape memory alloys via vacuum induction melting. An ingot was synthesized from elemental Ni and Ti and subjected to three subsequent remelting cycles. Remelting increases process durations and impurity levels and adversely affects microstructures and functional properties.

The Shadow Economy and Shadow Economy Labor Force: What Do We (Not) Know? [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2011
In this paper the main focus lies on the development and the size of the shadow economy and of undeclared work (or shadow economy labor force) in OECD, developing and transition countries. Besides informal employment in the rural and non-rural sector also other measures of informal employment like the share of employees not covered by social security ...

Electrochemical Behavior of Flame‐Sprayed Sc‐Doped AlCoCrFeMo High‐Entropy Alloy Coatings in 3.5% Sodium Chloride Solution

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Scandium (Sc)‐doped AlCoCrFeMo HEA coatings are fabricated via flame spraying with 0.1, 0.3, and 0.5 wt% Sc additions. Among these, the HEA‐Sc0.3 coating exhibits the highest corrosion resistance, indicated by a more positive corrosion potential and lower current density.

Shadow economy in Slovenia [PDF]

open access: yesManaging Global Transitions, 2007
The all-around notorious shadow economy phenomenon is subject to constant reshaping, regarding both time and place, which results in a somewhat unclear definition. We use the following definition: all productive activities, whose output is legal, but is deliberately concealed from the authorities, usually for gaining financial benefits.

STRUCTURE OF THE SHADOW ECONOMY

open access: yesJournal of Economic and Economic Policy, 2023
The shadow economy is an economic activity outside of government control. The problem of the shadow economy is most relevant in our time, since the scale of its spread is growing throughout the world and soon it may cover the entire sector of the economies of the world. The existence of the shadow economy creates a negative impact on society.

Nondestructive Testing of Welded Composite Metal Foams

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
X‐ray computed tomography (CT) is used to evaluate welded steel–steel composite metal foam (CMF) joints of two density classes. It reports variation in postweld spatial void distribution and correlates it to weld‐induced changes, mechanical performance, and failure within welded CMF panels.

Shadow economy estimation methods: digital shadow economy assessment aspect

open access: yes9th International Scientific Conference “Business and Management 2016”, 2016
This article is aimed at the ascertainment of whether the determinants of digital shadow economy are included in the methods of traditional shadow economy estimation. The results of the research have disclosed that the methods of shadow economy estimation consider general economic, monetary, money turnover, electricity and energy consumption, labour ...

Feasibility of Nitrogen as a Carrier Gas for Inconel Cold Spray in Hydropower Application

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
N2, despite being nearly two orders of magnitude cheaper than He, is a feasible carrier gas for cold spray Inconel coatings in hydropower repair applications when higher gas temperature and pressure are used. Reducing powder size significantly improved cavitation resistance, while the addition of fine chromium carbide particles further enhanced erosion

SHADOW ECONOMY AND ITS IMPACT ON THE ECONOMY

open access: yesBulletin of Korkyt Ata Kyzylorda University, 2021
Бұл мақалада қазіргі кездегі көлеңкелі экономиканың әлеуметтік-мәдени себептері мен көлеңкелі экономиканың көлемін арттырып отырған жағдайлар қарастырылады. Себебі көлеңкелі экономика бірнеше онжылдықтан бері зерттеліп келе жатқанымен, оны нақты талдайтындай анық түсінік әлі қалыптасқан жоқ.

Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.
