Glycolysis has been generally accepted to be the source of reducing power used for the synthesis of polyhydroxyalkanoates (PHAs) in the anaerobic metabolism of polyphosphate accumulating organisms (PAOs). However, the tricarboxylic acid cycle (TCA) has also been suggested to contribute to the generation of reducing eq…

TiC-Ti3SiC2 composites having the microstructure of fine Ti3SiC2 grains dispersed in TiC matrix were synthesized by two processes, that is, mechanical alloying of a powder blend of Ti, Si and C followed by hot-pressing (MA-HP process) and hot-pressing of a powder blend of Ti, Si and TiC (MIX-HP process). The microstru…

Several homogenized models are compared for accurate representation of ac magnetic properties of silicon steel sheets. Two of them are generalized Pry and Bean models that have a parameter for the frequency dependence of eddy-current loss. The third model assumes a quadratic distribution of magnetic flux density along…

In High-Cycle Fatigue (HCF) of materials like copper, the most common failure modes originate from cyclic strain localization in persistent slip bands (PSBs). The latter form only when the loading amplitudes exceed the PSB thresholds. In contrast to this well-known HCF behaviour, it is shown in the present study that…

Fracture mechanics based techniques can be used to study the phenomena of stress corrosion cracking and hydrogen embrittlement and to model the degradation of metallic materials caused by the uptake of atomic hydrogen. Constant extension rate tensile experiments were performed on both smooth and pre-cracked specimens…

The 7XXX series Al – Zn alloys are precipitation hardenable and therefore amenable for thermomechanical treatment. Al alloys with trace elements are used in aerospace industries inspite of the drawbacks of susceptibility to stress corrosion, poor wettability, poor weldability and poor fatigue resistance. The wettabili…

The stability and interfacial bonding of coincidence tilt and twist grain boundaries (GBs) in Al and Cu have been examined by using the projector-augmented wave method within the density-functional theory. For the {221} Σ=9 tilt GB, glide models are more stable than mirror models for Al and Cu, and the {001} Σ=5 twist…

Sticky point temperature (Ts) measurement for hygroscopic food and biomaterial powders is traditionally performed with complex glass instruments. This property is used to characterize material stickiness, which substantially affects the flow and physical behavior of powders. In this research study we developed a new m…

Core melt solidification phenomena during external reactor vessel cooling is investigated in LIVE tests with different external cooling conditions and melt pouring positions. A non-eutectic simulant melt (80-20 mole% KNO3-NaNO3) is used in the LIVE tests. It is found out that when the vessel is cooled with water at th…

The investigation of reactor pressure vessel (RPV) materials from decommissioned NPPs offers the unique opportunity to scrutinize the irradiation behaviour under real conditions. Material samples taken from the RPV wall enable a comprehensive material characterisation. The paper describes the investigation of trepans…

Soft X-ray spectroscopy was applied to study a calcium bentonite from the Kutch area in India. We recorded the X-ray absorption spectra from the L-edge of calcium, silicon, and aluminum, and from K-edge of oxygen. The Ca absorption spectrum shows a quasi-atomic behavior, while the Si spectrum closely simulates the abs…

Bone is a very active and dynamic tissue that is constantly remodelled in response to mechanical stress and hormonal stimuli. The cells of the bone are capable of restoring bone defects and fractures in their original state. However, in certain circumstances, the spontaneous repair process is hampered, resulting in no…
