Effect of carbon nanotubes on the bonding mechanism of non-corrosive reinforcements to concrete by Alaa, Taha

“…Results showed a slight reduction in bond strength, minor improvement in normalized bond strength, increased development length of FRP bars, and decreased reinforcement slippage associated with the ultimate bond stress when MWCNTs were incorporated into the concrete mixture. …”

Ferroelectric Properties and Electrocaloric Effect in Dy2O3 Substitution on Lead-Free (Na0.5 Bi0.5)0.94 Ba0.06TiO3 Ceramic by Turki, O.

“…Higher stability of the ferroelectric (FE) phase was obtained at room temperature for the compositions y = 0.01, 0.02 and 0.05, with optimum values for y = 0.02 as remanent polarization Pr = 32µC/cm2, as well as piezoelectric coefficients d33 = 137 pC/N, kp = 0.27 and kt = 0.16, whereas a higher content of Dy (y = 0.08) induced a remarkable decrease of the ferroelectric and piezoelectric properties. …”

Control of the Speed of a Light-Induced Spin Transition through Mesoscale Core-Shell Architecture by Slimani, Ahmed

“…A series of photomagnetic coordination polymer core-shell heterostructures, based on the light-switchable RbaCob[Fe(CN)6]c·mH2O (RbCoFe-PBA) as core with the isostructural KjNik[Cr(CN)6]l·nH2O (KNiCr-PBA) as shell, are studied using temperature-dependent powder X-ray diffraction and SQUID magnetometry. …”

Detailed organic characterization of process water to evaluate reverse osmosis membrane fouling in industrial wastewater treatment by Minier-Matar, Joel

“…Bench-scale RO results showed that in the absence of ACF pretreatment, a 12 % decline in membrane permeability (from 1.78 to 1.57 L/(m2-bar-h)) was observed, while no permeability decline was measured after ACF treatment. …”

Mixed siliciclastic-carbonate-evaporite sedimentation in an arid eolian landscape: The Khor Al Adaid tide-dominated coastal embayment, Qatar by John M., Rivers

“…Wind-generated waves only locally influence sedimentation, forming complex nearshore bars along some lagoonal shorelines. The overall landward increase in salinity is accompanied by a decrease in the diversity of benthic fauna and their skeletal remains. …”
