MoVN-Cu Coatings for In Situ Tribocatalytic Formation of Carbon-Rich Tribofilms in Low-Viscosity Fuels Open
Inhibiting the tribological failure of mechanical assemblies which rely on fuels for lubrication is an obstacle to maintaining the lifetime of these systems with low-viscosity and low-lubricity fuels. In the present study, a MoVN-Cu nanoco…

Quantitative estimation of closed cell porosity in low density ceramic composites using X-ray microtomography Open
X-ray Microtomography is a proven tool for phase fraction analysis of multi-phase systems, provided that each phase is adequately partitioned by some means of data processing. For porosity in materials containing low-density ceramic phases…

Growth Mechanisms of Nano-to Micro-Sized Lead Sulfate Particles Open
PbSO4 is a key component in the charging and discharging of lead acid batteries-such as the cycling of automotive batteries. PbSO4 is a poor conductor that forms on the positive and negative electrodes during discharging and dissolves duri…

Evaluation of a hybrid antimicrobial restriction process at a large academic medical center Open
We conducted a retrospective review of a hybrid antimicrobial restriction process demonstrating adherence to appropriate use criteria in 72% of provisional-only orders, in 100% of provisional orders followed by ID orders, and in 97% of ID-…

Effect of Ni-Content on the Transformation Temperatures in NiTi-20 at. % Zr High Temperature Shape Memory Alloys Open
The effect of Ni-content on phase transformation behavior of NiTi-20 at. % Zr high temperature shape memory alloy (HTSMA) is investigated over a small composition range, i.e., 49.8, 50.0 and 50.2 at. % Ni, by differential scanning calorime…
