Tribology of ZrC Coatings and Spherical Tips Acquired with Extraordinarily Stiff, Metal Atomic Force Microscopy Probes

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
In this research, ZrC coatings are evaluated against various counterprobes at the microscale using novel super‐stiff atomic force microscopy cantilevers. The chemical composition of the coating is shown to be an important factor influencing coating hardness and Young's modulus, while surface roughness, counterprobe hardness, and surface energy are the ...

From Nature to Engineering: Mortar Volume and Interfacial Mechanics in Bioinspired Ceramics

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Inspired by natural armors like nacre, this study explores how varying the volume fraction of the soft mortar layer impacts the interfacial strength and toughness of bioinspired ceramics. Experimental and computational analysis reveals that higher mortar volumes increase energy dissipation but reduce interfacial stiffness, offering insights for ...

Maximum Shear Strength Limit for Reinforced Concrete Deep Beams

International Journal of Concrete Structures and Materials
Although it is widely known that the shear strength of reinforced concrete (RC) deep beams is higher than that of general RC beams to which Bernoulli’s assumption can be applied, the maximum shear strength limit of deep beams is identical to that of ...

Graphene–Catechol Dental Sealant: Antibacterial and Mechanical Evaluation

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents dental sealants made with graphene and L‐DOPA‐modified graphene. L‐DOPA enhances graphene dispersion, improving sealant properties. The material shows antibacterial activity against S. mutans and L. casei, along with high strength and elasticity.

On the Deformation Behavior of Metastable CrMnNi Steels Processed by Directed Energy Deposition in Different Temperature Regimes

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
In the present study, metastable CrMnNi steels with varying chemical compositions and a concomitantly altered stacking fault energy are processed via directed energy deposition and afterwards tested via tensile tests at different temperatures. The present study shows the influence of the manufacturing process on the elemental deformation mechanisms for

Weak Lensing by High-Redshift Clusters of Galaxies II: Mean Redshift of the Faint Background Galaxy Population

, 2003
We use weak lensing shear measurements of six z>0.5 clusters of galaxies to derive the mean lensing redshift of the background galaxies used to measure the shear. Five of these clusters are compared to X-ray mass models and verify a mean lensing redshift

Microstructural Evolution and Mechanical Property Degradation of Sn0.5Ag0.7Cu5Bi Solder Joints with High Indium Alloying

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study identifies 12 wt% indium (In) as the optimal composition for Sn0.5Ag0.7Cu5Bi solder joints, achieving 87% ductile fracture and 81% suppression of intermetallic compound (IMC) growth versus 4 wt% In. High‐In alloys (15–17 wt%) show abnormal IMC thickening due to thermal activation.

Experimental Study on the Shear Strength of Cement-Sand-Gravel Material

Advances in Materials Science and Engineering, 2018
An experimental study on the shear strength development of cement-sand-gravel (CSG) material was carried out using triaxial compression tests. The effects of the cementing agent content, aggregate content, and gradation on the shear strength of CSG ...
