A New Approach to Single‐Step Fabrication of TiOx‐CeOx Nanoparticles

open access: yesSmall Science, Volume 4, Issue 11, November 2024.
A novel approach for the synthesis of TiOx‐CeOx NPs based on a gas aggregation cluster source equipped with a single segmented target is presented. Analytical results from particles synthesized at different conditions reveal the highly defective nature of the particle surface as well as the presence of various morphologies.

Shakedown solutions for pavements with materials following associated and non-associated plastic flow rules [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Existing lower-bound shakedown solutions for pavement problems are generally obtained by assuming that materials obey an associated flow rule, whereas plasticity of real materials is more inclined to a non-associated flow. In this paper, a numerical step-

Experimental and numerical determination of the fatigue notch factor in as‐built wire arc additive manufacturing steel components

open access: yesFatigue &Fracture of Engineering Materials &Structures, Volume 47, Issue 11, Page 4372-4389, November 2024.
Abstract Parts manufactured by wire arc additive manufacturing (WAAM) are characterized by a peculiar surface morphology, namely, surface waviness, that negatively affects the fatigue performance. To exploit the full potential of WAAM and minimize the need for postproduction work, it is crucial to utilize the components in the as‐built state.
