Mechanical and Fatigue Behavior of Cellular Structure Ti-6Al-4V Alloy Femoral Stems: A Finite Element Analysis
(
MDPI
, 2022 , Article)
Repetitive loads acting on the hip joint fluctuate according to the type of activities produced by the human body. Repetitive loading is one of the factors that leads to fatigue failure of the implanted stems. The objective ...
Synthesis of water capture technologies for gas fired power plants in Qatar
(
Institution of Chemical Engineers
, 2020 , Article)
Flue gas from gas fired power plants contains 10-16% (w/w) water vapor with considerable amount of latent heat. Although CO2 capture and utilization have received great attention, water capture from power plant has received ...
