Characterization of Macro/Microstructure and Corrosion Resistance of Austenitic Gas Tungsten Arc Welding Cladding

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Cladding is a proven method that boosts the surface qualities of mechanical parts by applying a layer of more durable material over a base substrate. This work responds to the needs of offshore and pressure vessels sectors by focusing on cladding a super austenitic steel onto low‐carbon steel through gas tungsten arc welding.

Income Smoothing and Islam

Journal of Islamic Thought and Civilization, 2019
Income smoothing refers to the use of accounting techniques to level out net income fluctuations from one period to the next. Companies indulge in this practice to manipulate the earnings over the period in order to lower the level of uncertainty.

Scale space consistency of piecewise constant least squares estimators -- another look at the regressogram

, 2006
We study the asymptotic behavior of piecewise constant least squares regression estimates, when the number of partitions of the estimate is penalized. We show that the estimator is consistent in the relevant metric if the signal is in $L^2([0,1])$, the ...

Incorporation of Selenium into Sol–Gel‐Derived Bioactive Glass: Influence on Glass Structure, Bioactivity, and its Selective Cytotoxicity

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Selenium was incorporated into a sol–gel‐derived bioactive glass to enable sustained therapeutic ion release. The selenium‐containing glass preserved bioactivity while selectively inducing cytotoxicity in osteosarcoma cells and maintaining osteoblastic viability.

An exponential smoothing method application to restoring lost data on electric power technical record-keeping in industrial enterprises

Electrical engineering & Electromechanics, 2014
The paper studies in detail a problem of restoring single data of electric power technical record-keeping systems by means of exponential smoothing. A hypothesis of efficient finding the optimal value of smoothing constant α in the range of 0 < α < 2 is ...

Numerical Modeling of Tank Cars Carrying Hazardous Materials With and Without Composite Metal Foam

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Large‐scale puncture models consisting of hazardous materials (HAZMATs) tank car with protective steel–steel composite metal foam (S–S CMF) are solved numerically. Tank car plate with added 10.91–13.33 mm thick S–S CMF layer does not puncture. Protective S–S CMF absorbs impact energy, reduces plate deformation, and prevents shear bands formation ...

Optimal Divergence-Free Hatch Filter for GNSS Single-Frequency Measurement

Sensors, 2017
The Hatch filter is a code-smoothing technique that uses the variation of the carrier phase. It can effectively reduce the noise of a pseudo-range with a very simple filter construction, but it occasionally causes an ionosphere-induced error for low ...
