Abstract: The result of single-ended traveling wave fault location method based on wavelet transform will be affected by false wavelet transform modulus maxima (WTMM) points. In this paper, fault ...

The European Space Agency's XMM-Newton and NASA's Chandra X-ray space telescopes have spotted the aftermath of three bright explosions echoing through the outer spiral arms of our galaxy, the Milky ...

Macrophages are early responders to biomaterial interfaces, but the specific role of surface roughness in regulating macrophage inflammatory phenotypes remains difficult to distinguish from the ...

Abstract: With the advantages of energy concentration, low attenuation, and long propagation distance, featured guided waves (FGWs) have shown great potential in the detection of weld structures.

Bolted joints are among the most common structural elements in precision machinery. They are used because they are strong, serviceable and reliable. Yet, despite their prevalence, the moment stiffness ...

The mechanical properties of electrochemically deposited Li whiskers critically determine the failure mechanisms of Li metal batteries, yet they remain elusive at the single-whisker level. Here, the ...

Several engineering practices have shown that the excavation of shallow-buried tunnels beneath major roads, as well as the selection of appropriate engineering measures and construction methods, has a ...

A materials discovery algorithm geared towards exploring high performance candidates in new chemical spaces using composition-only. Bulk modulus values overlaid on DensMAP densities (cropped). Baird, ...

A number of essential processes in biology and materials science, such as vesicle fusion and fission as well as pore formation, change the membrane topology and require formation of saddle surfaces.
