To explore a new method to improve the wear resistance of TiNi shape memory alloy (SMA), Ti-50.8Ni alloy was treated by the method of ultrasonic surface shot peening. The microstructure evolution, hardness, and tribological behaviors have been further investigated to evaluate the effect of ultrasonic surface shot peening (USSP). The surface microstructure can be refined to some extent while the basic phase composition has little change. USSP can facilitate the martensitic transformation in the surface layer, which benefits improving the surface hardness. Additionally, the hardness of Ti-50.8Ni alloy increases first and then decreases with the increase of applied load, but the USSP-treated alloy tends to be more sensitive to load. USSP treatment can improve the wear resistance and reduce the coefficient of friction (COF) in case of a low sliding wear speed of 5 mm/s. However, the tribological properties of USSP-treated alloy are reversely worse in the case of 10 mm/s. This is mainly attributed to the combined effect of stress-induced martensite transformation and degeneration resulting from the frictional heating during the dry sliding wear process.

Background: A number of immunotherapeutic approaches have been developed and are entering the clinic. Bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) are one of these modalities and induce robust efficacy by endogenous T cells in several hematological malignancies. However, most of the treated patients experience only a temporary benefit.

Polysaccharides from the dried tuber of Typhonium giganteum Engl. (TGEPs) were obtained by utilizing ultrasonic-assisted extraction (UAE) as the extraction method. The determination of optimal process parameters for the UAE of TGEPs (TGEP-U) was accomplished through the application of response surface methodology (RSM).

Octacalcium phosphate (OCP) has been used as a bone replacement material due to its higher bone affinity. However, the mechanism of affinity has not been clarified. Since the 100 crystalline plane of OCP is closely involved in the biological reactions during osteogenesis, it is important to expose the 100 crystalline plane of OCP to the biological fluid to precisely measure the interfacial reactions.

This study aimed to construct oleofilms containing a binary mixture of proteins (soy protein hydrolysate and gelatin) and lipids (olive oil, stearic acid, and lecithin) using various ultrasonic emulsification processes. Initially, oleogels (OG20, OG40, OG60, OG80, and OG100) were fabricated with different sonication powers (20 %-100 %), along with control (OG) without sonication. Macrostructure, FTIR, DSC, stability coefficient (57.

Microwave surface and Lamb waves in a multilayered piezoelectric "Al-IDT/(AlSc)N/(001)[110] diamond" structure designed as a SAW resonator were studied using both the experimental and modeling methods. In this structure, it is possible to generate Rayleigh, surface horizontal (SH) and Lamb waves simultaneously. The successful excitation of Lamb waves at operating frequencies up to 20 GHz has been obtained.
