Current Status of Thermal Spray Coatings for High Temperature Corrosion Resistance of Boiler Steel
Abstract: In the thermal power plants, the conventional steels used in boilers are unable to sustain the hot corrosion issues. To reduce the problem of hot corrosion in the boilers, many types of surface coatings have been used in the recent past. Thermal spray techniques have been used to develop these coatings on the components of boilers. Thermal spray coating techniques are important means to develop coatings to increase the corrosion …

Antimicrobial Peptides and Bacteriophages as Next-Generation Alternatives to Conventional Antibiotics
Abstract: The growing threat of antibiotic-resistant bacteria has underscored the urgent need for innovative alternatives to conventional antibiotics. Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) and bacteriophages are gaining recognition as next-generation therapeutics due to their distinct mechanisms of action and ability to target resistant pathogens effectively. AMPs, which can be natural or synthetic, disrupt microbial membranes and offer broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity with a reduced likelihood of resistance development. Bacteriophages, as bacteria-specific viruses, provide precise …

Effect of Viscoelastic Dampers on Progressive Collapse Resistance of RC Building
Abstract: Natural as well as man-made hazards may cause the failure of the primary load bearing members of buildings. The spread of an initial local failure from element to element, eventually result into the collapse of an entire structure or a large part of it, which is known as Progressive Collapse. Progressive collapse initiates when one or more primary load bearing elements get fails causing failure of the entire structure. It …
