Signatures of wave erosion in Titan’s coasts by Palermo, Rose V, Ashton, Andrew D, Soderblom, Jason M, Birch, Samuel PD, Hayes, Alexander G, Perron, J Taylor

“…Applying this framework to Titan, we find that the shorelines of Titan’s seas are most consistent with flooded landscapes that subsequently have been eroded by waves, rather than a uniform erosional process or no coastal erosion, particularly if wave growth saturates at fetch lengths of tens of kilometers.…”

Improving hydration and carbonation of reactive magnesium oxide cement by Tye, Wenkai

“…It was then used in the second half of the study, where samples were treated with sodium bicarbonate, high initial curing temperature or by introduction of nano-silica as seeds. Only seeding using nano-silica improved the compressive strength of concrete when compared to the control mix (without use of enhanced curing techniques). …”

Entrapping of inclusions within carbon nanotubes during catalytic decomposition of C2H4 on a “thick” nickel film by Li, Feng Ji, Zhang, Sam, Sun, Geng Zhi, Kong, Jun Hua, Rawat, R. S., Ilyas, Usman, Li, Bo

“…It was found that pretreating of the nickel film resulted in lots of small nanoparticles extruding on the surface, among big ones, serving as seeds for the growth of tubes. The inner walls of a few tubes were sealed internally by multiple elongated “beads-like,” “bullet-shaped” or “needle-shaped” nickel inclusions. …”
