Due to the increased contact pressure and abrasive action on the coated surface, larger debris particles can result in higher wear rates. When designing and applying flame spray coatings in various industrial environments, ...

Using the full-potential linearised augmented plane wave approach, we examined the structural, electronic, and optical features of AgXBr3 perovskite materials (X = Ca, Sr, or Ba). The GGA-PBEsol exchange-correlation ...

Titanium alloys possess remarkable properties, such as high strength, biocompatibility, and resistance to corrosion. Nonetheless, both their surface and subsurface properties require improvements, particularly for applications ...

Although Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) outperform the classical models in a wide range of Machine Vision applications, their restricted interpretability and their lack of comprehensibility in reasoning, generate many ...

Although seafaring is seen as an attractive profession for prospective students in terms of having the opportunity to see different parts of the world while working and earning more money in less time compared to other ...

This study involved an examination of 3200 maritime accident investigation reports to identify factors contributing to maritime accidents and their consequences. The information extracted from these reports was categorized ...

The full-potential linearized augmented plane wave (FP-LAPW) method within the framework of density functional theory (DFT) and semi-classical Boltzmann transport theory under the constant relaxation time approximation has ...

This is to review the structural, elastic, optoelectronic, mechanical, thermodynamic, and magnetic properties of different half- and full-Heusler compounds such as NiTiX and CoVX (X = Sb and Sn); CoCrZ (Z = Al, Ga); Co2YZ ...

The focus of this book is synthesis and optical studies of self-assembled quantum dots (QDs) with particular consideration given to the capability to control nanoelectronics properties via structural modifications. ...

In this paper, a new linear-based closed-loop control method for a Solid-State Transformer (SST) has been proposed. In this new control method, individual current and voltage loops for each of the power conversion stages ...
