Neural network modelling of submerged arc weld metal properties by Gareth E. Ridings

“…This research is concerned with the application of neural network techniques to the prediction of the mechanical and physical properties, including the shape of the weld bead, of submerged arc line-pipe steel welds. A limited experimental investigation has been carried out using optical and transmission electron microscopy to establish an understanding of the complex microstructures that result from the welding processes used in the production of line-pipe. …”

Anti-buoyancy and unidirectional gas evolution by Janus electrodes with asymmetric wettability by Siyu Sheng, Bairu Shi, Cheng Wang, Liang Luo, Xiao Lin, Pengsong Li, Fanhong Chen, Zhicheng Shang, Hong Meng, Yun Kuang, Wen-Feng Lin, Xiaoming Sun

“…The bubbles electrochemically generated by gas evolution reactions are commonly driven off the electrode by buoyancy, a weak force used to overcome bubble adhesion barriers, leading to low gas transporting efficiency. Herein, a Janus electrode with asymmetric wettability has been prepared by modifying two sides of a porous stainless-steel mesh electrode, with superhydrophobic polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and Pt/C (or Ir/C) catalyst with well-balanced hydrophobicity, respectively; affording unidirectional transportation of as-formed gaseous hydrogen and oxygen from the catalyst side to the gas-collecting side during water splitting. …”

Hard Bop by John Atkin

“…•How to redefine the locale through the process of regeneration, using children’s workshops: local radio interviews: ABC TV news items: exhibition of documentary film. the neighborhood Fillmore Centre, in order to test and project concepts to the wider audience of the District Research processes involved: Testing a range of reflective materials that could be perceived as ‘celebratory’; Consultation (British Stainless Steel Advisory Service) on the grade and type of stainless steel to withstand the urban & saline atmosphere of San Francisco; Testing different grades of polishing that will be reflective and simultaneously deliver low maintenance; Devising forms that translate recognizable references to musical rhythm into sculptural form: Using MAYA software to test how to reflect notions of spontaneity, which equate with musical rhythm and to further inform viewer interpretation of the sculpture with musical instrument-based references, such as Machine Head Keys, carved in granite; How to surmount the sculpture onto a water feature so that the confluence of audible water movement can intertwine with the rhythmic structure of the stainless steel reflective surfaces.…”
