Experimental Analysis of Residual Stress, Micro-Hardness and Corrosion Behavior of HVOF Sprayed Composite Coating
Abstract: The utilisation of non-traditional composite coating materials, enhanced lubrication, and surface geometry optimisation have all contributed to the tribological performance. Piston rings are among the most crucial engine parts since friction causes between 40 and 45 percent of all energy loss. Fuel efficiency, power loss, and exhaust pollutants are all strongly impacted by the piston assembly's tribological performance. The present study's primary goal was to develop composite coating by using …

Aluminium-Doped Zinc Ferrite Nanoparticles Synthesized by Combustion Method for Polymer Composite Applications
Abstract: ZnFe₂₋xAlₓO₄ (x = 0 and 0.5) nanoparticles were synthesized via a combustion method owing to its simplicity, cost efficiency, and ability to produce highly crystalline nanomaterials. Powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the formation of a single-phase cubic spinel structure without detectable secondary phases, indicating high phase purity. The average crystallite size was estimated to be in the range of 14–20 nm, confirming the nanocrystalline nature of the samples. Field-emission …

Comparative Analysis of the Structural Integrity and Dimensional Stability of Additively Manufactured Biopolymers vs. Thermoformed PETG: A 1-Year Retrospective Study on Polymer Performance in Orthodontic Applications
Abstract: Objective: This study aimed to evaluate the long-term dimensional accuracy and structural performance of direct 3D-printed biopolymers compared to conventional vacuum-formed Polyethylene Terephthalate Glycol (PETG) composites. The investigation focused on how different polymer processing methods (additive manufacturing vs. thermoforming) influence material thinning and resistance to occlusal stress. Methods: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 60 cases (n = 60) of post-orthodontic maintenance. The sample was divided into two cohorts: Group …

Unraveling Mixed Ionic-Electronic Conduction in Lithium-Substituted Rubidium Tetra Titanates via Dielectric Spectroscopy and EPR Analysis
Abstract: Lithium-substituted Rubidium Tetra Titanates with varying concentrations of lithium carbonate (Li₂CO₃) — specifically 0.01, 0.05, and 0.1 molar percentages — were successfully synthesized using a conventional high-temperature solid-state reaction method. The resulting compounds follow the general chemical formula Rb₂₋ₓLiₓTi₄O₉. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed that lithium ions were successfully incorporated into the crystal lattice without disrupting the fundamental layered structure of the host material. The crystal system remained monoclinic across …

Dynamic Simulation of Load-Responsive Vapor Compression Refrigeration Systems
Abstract: Because of their dependable operation and effectiveness, vapor compression refrigeration systems, or vapor compression refrigeration (VCRS), have become popular in commercial, industrial, and residential settings. However, under different thermal loads, classic vapor compression refrigeration (VCR) systems may perform less well in that they are usually built for steady-state conditions and run at consistent speeds. In order to improve a load-responsive VCR system’s flexibility, energy efficiency, and response to changing cooling …
