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 ...

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 ...

Rail support modulus is an important factor in safety of railway track. This parameter is defined as support force imposing on rail length unit per rail unit displacement in vertical direction. Rail ...

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 ...

Flexible psammophytes play an important role in controlling soil wind erosion and desertification, owing to their characteristics. Although flexibility of psammophytes has been considered in previous ...

Abstract: The topology of the distribution network and direction of the power flow will change when distributed generators (DGs) are connected to it, making it difficult to locate faults using ...

This article presents the results of a study of the properties of epoxy adhesives in an adhesive joint. The study analysed changes in Young's modulus values as a function of the rigidity of the ...

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.
