Nowadays, different renewable sources and energy storages are attracting world attention due to the major concerns about the excessive emissions and global energy crisis. Hence, this paper studies design and optimal ...
Effect of mixing duration on flexural strength of multi walled carbon nanotubes cementitious composites
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2016 , Article)
This paper investigates the effect of mixing duration on the flexural strength of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) reinforced cementitious composites. Each batch containing 0.03%, 0.08%, 0.15% or 0.25% MWCNT to cement ...
Beneficial effect of shot peening on steamside oxidation of 300-series austenitic steels: An electrochemical study
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2018 , Article)
The formation of a protective oxide ensures the good corrosion resistance of austenitic steels in high temperature steam. However after long-term interaction even the protective oxide may tend to exfoliate and cause ...
Signaling pathways activated by PACAP in MCF-7 breast cancer cells
(
Elsevier Inc.
, 2018 , Article)
PACAP has opposing roles ranging from activation to inhibition of tumor growth and PACAP agonists/antagonists could be used in tumor therapy. In this study, the effect of PACAP stimulation on signaling pathways was ...
Internal transverse reinforcement configuration effect of EB/NSE-FRCM shear strengthening of RC deep beams
(
