Mapping sensitivity of CVD diamond detector using synchrotron micro-beam.

In this project, we conducted micro-beam sensitivity mapping using the Diamond Light Source (DLS) synchrotron. We fabricated three samples with distinct metal contacts: Platinum (HPS-Pt) and Aluminium/Platinum (HPS-Al/Pt) on high-quality single crystal CVD diamond, and Platinum (VS-Pt) on lower purity single crystal CVD diamond. Our objective was to identify the most suitable sample for synchrotron measurements, particularly focusing on the lower purity sample due to its unique characteristics, such as thin nitrogen lines and substrate area.

Predicting ergonomic risk among laboratory technicians using a Cheetah Optimizer-Integrated Deep Convolutional Neural Network.

Medical laboratory technicians play a significant role in clinical units by conducting diagnostic tests and analyses. However, their job nature involving repetitive motions, prolonged standing or sitting, etc., leads to potential ergonomic risks.

A comprehensive study of Al-Cu-Mg system reinforced with nano-ZrO particles synthesized by powder metallurgy technique.

More focus has recently been placed on enhancing the strength, elastic modulus, coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE), wear and corrosion resistance, and other qualities of aluminum (Al) alloys by varying the quantity of ceramics added for a range of industrial uses. In this regard, Al-4.2-Cu-1.

Ultralight Functionally Graded Hybrid Nanocomposites Based on Yttrium and Silica-Reinforced Mg10Li5Al Alloy: Thermal and Tribomechanical Properties.

Despite the amazing properties of lightweight MgLiAl alloy, its use in industrial applications is highly limited due to its low mechanical properties, wear resistance, and coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE). In this context, this work aimed to improve the above properties without sacrificing the important benefit of this alloy being lightweight. Therefore, function grade composites (FGCs) were prepared based on the MgLiAl alloy reinforced by yttrium (Y) and silica fume using the powder metallurgy technique.

Influence of Friction Stir Process on the Physical, Microstructural, Corrosive, and Electrical Properties of an Al-Mg Alloy Modified with Ti-B Additives.

In this study, two successive methods were used to improve the grain structure and the mechanical and physical properties of Al 5052 aluminum alloy. The modifying elements, 0.99 wt.
