Tribo-mechanical properties and corrosion behavior investigation of anodized Ti-V alloy
(
MDPIAG
, 2018 , Article)
In the work presented in this manuscript, a self-organized TiO2 nanotube array film was produced by electrochemical anodization of a Ti-V alloy in an electrolyte containing NH4F/H3PO4 and then annealed at different ...
Experimental results and modelling of corrosion-damaged concrete beams strengthened with externally-bonded composites
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
This paper presents the results of 3D finite element (FE) modelling of corrosion-damaged reinforced concrete (RC) beams strengthened in flexure with externally-bonded composites. The models were validated against the results ...
Synthesis, characterization, and application of novel Ni-P-carbon nitride nanocomposites
(
MDPI AG
, 2018 , Article)
Dispersion of 2D carbon nitride (C3N4) nanosheets into a nickel phosphorous (NiP) matrix was successfully achieved by ultrasonication during the electroless plating of NiP from an acidic bath. The morphology and thickness, ...
Nanoscale studies of the early stages of scale formation in sour environments
(
one petro
, 2018 , Article)
The corrosion of carbon steel in environments containing hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a critical issue to the oil and gas industry. Although considerable research efforts have been carried out, there is not yet a complete ...
Synthesis and characterization of electrodeposited Ni-B-Tl 2 O 3 composite coatings
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2018 , Article)
Ni-B coatings are promising materials for several applications in electronics, nuclear, automotive, aerospace, petrochemical and food industries owing to their exceptional mechanical and chemical properties such as, high ...
Recent advances in electroless-plated Ni-P and its composites for erosion and corrosion applications: a review
(
Springer Nature
, 2018 , Article Review)
The metallic coating of surfaces plays a vital role in the protection of most industrial applications. Coatings can be carried through various routes (e.g., mechanical and electrochemical plating techniques). Electroless ...
The missing piece of the puzzle regarding the relation between the degree of superhydrophobicity and the corrosion resistance of superhydrophobic coatings
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
This work supplies the missing piece of the puzzle regarding the unclear relation between the water contact angle (WCA) of a superhydrophobic coating (SHC) and its corrosion protection performance. Generally, an increase ...
Reinforced Concrete Degradation in the Harsh Climates of the Arabian Gulf: Field Study on 30-to-50-Year-Old Structures
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2018 , Article)
This paper presents the results of a field study carried out on three reinforced concrete (RC) structures built in the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s to determine the main load (environmental) and the resistance (for example, the ...
Fatigue and Monotonic Behaviors of Corrosion-Damaged Reinforced Concrete Beams Strengthened with FRCM Composites
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2018 , Article)
This paper provides a comprehensive account of using fabric-reinforced cementitious matrix (FRCM) composites to strengthen corrosion-damaged reinforced concrete (RC) structures subjected to monotonic loading and fatigue. ...
Effect of temperature and fluid speed on the corrosion behavior of carbon steel pipeline in Qatari oilfield produced water
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
Metals integrity, such as carbon steel used in pipeline network can be seriously damaged by produced water causing serious corrosion problems. This can result in significant threats to safe operation of the oilfield ...
