This study investigates the tribological response of 60NiTi alloy under dry, water‐lubricated and high‐temperature conditions. The alloy exhibits decreasing wear volume and friction with increasing temperature due to the formation of protective oxide layers. The work clarifies dominant wear mechanisms and demonstrates the suitability of 60NiTi for high‐

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 ...

Shallow Water Depth Estimation of Inland Wetlands Using Landsat 8 Satellite Images
Water depth affects many aspects of wetland ecology, hydrology, and biogeochemistry. However, acquiring water depth data is often difficult due to inadequate monitoring or insufficient funds.

Water uptake in deep soil layers by tropical eucalypt plantations: consequences for water resources under climate change. [P117] [PDF]
Climate models predict that the frequency, intensity and duration of drought events will increase in tropical regions. Questions such as how planted forests will adapt to future constraints on water availability have broad implications for the supply of ...

Water ice at the surface of HD 100546 disk
We made near infrared multicolor imaging observations of a disk around Herbig Be star HD100546 using Gemini/NICI. K (2.2\,$\mu$m), H$_2$O ice (3.06\,$\mu$m), and L'(3.8\,$\mu$m) disk images were obtained and we found the 3.1\,$\mu$m absorption feature in

Removing Oxide Layers and Retaining Oxide‐Free Steel Surfaces by Polishing in Oxygen‐Free Atmosphere
In this study, the efficacy of wet mechanical polishing under an oxygen‐free atmosphere for deoxidation and the retention of an oxide‐free steel surface are elucidated using X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The methodology proved successful; however, the results were highly dependent on the preparation of the solvents used to clean the samples after ...
