Experimental analysis of additively manufactured thin-walled heat-treated circular tubes with slits using AlSi10Mg alloy by quasi-static axial crushing test by Mohamed A.S.

“…The bulk of the tested tubes exhibited a crushing force efficiency greater than 0.8. Overall, the presence of slits with length 15 mm and width 5 mm resulted in lower and smoother crushing forces than the straight tubes and, therefore, greater crushing force efficiency, validating them as crashworthy structures.…”

Aluminum nitride (AlN) reinforced electrodeposited Ni-B nanocomposite coatings by Radwan, A. Bahgat

“…The potentiodynamic analysis exhibited that the protection efficiency (PE%) of Ni–B coating is ~20%, which increased to ~53% and ~73% by addition of AlN nanoparticles of 0.6 and 1.2 g L−1, respectively. The corrosion resistance could be credited to the presence of inactive and insulating AlN nanoparticles that filled the existing defects in Ni–B matrix and subsequently decreased the active area exposed to the corrosive electrolyte (3.5 wt.% NaCl).…”

Influence of nitrogen doping on the electrocatalytic activity of Ni-incorporated carbon nanofibers toward urea oxidation by Barakat, Nasser A.M.

“…However, the electrochemical measurements indicated that the content of the urea in the initial electrospun solution should be optimized as the results showed that the best nickel surface activation as well as the maximum observed current density can be achieved when the urea content is kept at 5 wt%. Typically, the observed current densities using 1.0 M urea (in 1 M KOH) were 3.15, 29.7, 13.75, 47.55, 14.13 and 9.85 mA/cm2 for the nanofibers obtained from electrospun solutions having 0, 1, 2, 5, 7 and 9 wt% urea, respectively. …”
