Additive manufacturing (AM), also known as three-dimensional (3D) printing, has boomed
over the last 30 years, and its use has accelerated during the last 5 years. AM is a materials …

A single ton of ordinary Portland cement (OPC) demands around 4.0 G Joule energy and
creates about a ton of CO 2 emission. As part of our effort to preserve the environment, the …

The features of conductometric gas sensors based on metal oxide composites are
considered. The methods of the composites forming and the advantages of their using in the …

One-dimensional carbon nanotubes and two-dimensional graphene nanosheets with
unique electrical, mechanical and thermal properties are attractive reinforcements for …

Here we investigate the influence of the volumetric laser energy density (η) utilized in
selective laser melting (SLM) on the phase evolution, densification behavior, microstructure …

In this review, we focus on the saturation microstructure that evolves during severe plastic
deformation (SPD). These nanocrystalline or ultrafine-grained microstructures consist …

Metal matrix nanocomposites (MMNCs) are those metal matrix composites where the
reinforcement is of nanometer dimensions, typically less than 100 nm in size. Also, it is …

A novel ring-structured nanoscale TiC reinforcement with a regular distribution was tailored
along the grain boundaries of the matrix by selective laser melting (SLM) to produce …

In order to improve the performances of TiCN-based cermets, researchers have paid much
attention directly towards developing various new spices of cermets. The present review will …

The control of the nanostructure and the addition of nanoparticles to polymers have led to
structural and functional property enhancements in a number of polymeric systems as a …
