A robust evolutionary approach is proposed for the synthesis of multilayer coatings at oblique light incidence. The proposed approach consists of global and local strategies by integrating decreasing mutations and self-adaptive mutations via family competition and adaptive rules. Numerical results calculated at normal…

The threshold stress intensity (KISCC) of stress corrosion cracking (SCC) for 40CrMo steel in 3.5% sodium chloride (NaCl) solution decreased exponentially with the increase in the yield strength, σys (i.e., KISCC = 1.38 × 106exp[–8.26 × 10–3σys]). The threshold stress intensity of hydrogen-induced cracking (KIH) durin…

High‐strength joining of Si 3 N 4 ceramics has been achieved by developing a process that effectively eliminates the seam, and may allow for fabrication of large or complex silicon nitride bodies. This approach to joining is based on the concept that when sintering aids are effective in bonding individual grains, they…

This paper investigates the application of a theoretical model to predict the flashover of practical post type insulators. In particular, the model is applied to two 132 kV designs with different profiles and leakage path lengths. It is found that arc shortening due to inter-shed and inter-rib flashover and arc moveme…

A computationally efficient and accurate description of interatomic interactions is indispensable to the fidelity of atomistic simulations. In the development of popular empirical potentials, it is assumed that atoms separated beyond a certain cut-off distance have negligible interatomic forces and hence may be safely…

Recently, n-type semiconducting diamond was successfully obtained by sulfur doping using CH 4 /H 2 S/H 2 plasma chemical vapor deposition (CVD). It was reported that the crystal quality too was improved by the sulfur doping. In this study, the equilibrium geometry and the band structure of S- and O-doped diamond have…

We have demonstrated that the scaling of IrO x (Pb(Zr, Ti)O 3 :PZT)/Ir capacitors can be extended into the submicron regime. The submicron IrO x /PZT/Ir capacitors were fabricated using a one-mask stack-etch process, integrated with an SiO 2 interlayer dielectric, and contacted with Al metallization. The aggregate ele…

Abstract It was found that the stability of organogel of methyl-4, 6-O-benzylidene-α-d-glucopyranoside (1) is sensitively affected by a minute amount of concomitant water: the maximum stability is observed at [H2O]/[1] = 1.0. The effect of water molecules on the organogel stability is well understood in relation to it…
