On propagation characteristics of ultrasonic guided waves in helical strands by Zhang, Hongyan, Li, Jian, Jiang, Can, Chen, Shili, Fan, Zheng, Liu, Yang

“…Steel strands have been widely used in industrial fields as a reliable load-bearing component. Under the influence of environmental erosion and fatigue stress, different types of damage, such as corrosion and fracture, will occur in the in-service steel strands, which will cause unpredictable loss of personnel and property. …”

Maneuvering angle rigid formations with global convergence guarantees by Chen, Liangming, Lin, Zhiyun, De Marina, Hector Garcia, Sun, Zhiyong, Feroskhan, Mir

“…Angle rigid multi-agent formations can simultaneously undergo translational, rotational, and scaling maneuvering, therefore combining the maneuvering capabilities of both distance and bearing rigid formations. However, maneuvering angle rigid formations in 2D or 3D with global convergence guarantees is shown to be a challenging problem in the existing literature even when relative position measurements are available. …”

Novel bisisoquinolines : synthesis, resolution and application in asymmetric Henry reaction by Yao, Qiong Ji

“…(R)-N-alkyl-C1-1’,2’,3’,4’-terahydro-1,1’-bisisoquinoline differing in the steric bulkiness were successfully afforded to be examined in the asymmetric Henry reaction. The ligand bearing the smallest substituent was proved to be the most effective one in the CuI-catalyzed addition of nitromethane, nitroethane and nitropropane to aldehydes. …”

Nb and Ta intracrustal differentiation during granulite-facies metamorphism: evidence from geochemical data of natural rocks and thermodynamic modeling by Huang, G, Chen, Y, Guo, J, Palin, R, Zhao, L

“…However, residual crustal-derived A2-Type granites that experience significant fractionation of Nb-or Ta-bearing minerals during crystallization or contamination from other low-Nb/Ta sources cannot retain this high-Nb/Ta ratio, even though these ratios are generally higher than that of S-Type granites. …”

Carbon–cement supercapacitors as a scalable bulk energy storage solution by Chanut, Nicolas, Stefaniuk, Damian, Weaver, James C., Zhu, Yunguang, Shao-Horn, Yang, Masic, Admir, Ulm, Franz-Josef

“…Texture analysis reveals that the hydration reactions of cement in the presence of carbon generate a fractal-like electron-conducting carbon network that permeates the load-bearing cement-based matrix. The energy storage capacity of this space-filling carbon black network of the high specific surface area accessible to charge storage is shown to be an intensive quantity, whereas the high-rate capability of the carbon-cement electrodes exhibits self-similarity due to the hydration porosity available for charge transport. …”
