An aerial structure can be at the disposal of the owners of damage or intellectual property during its lifetime, under the supervision of static and dynamic loads and providing information in the field of recognizing temperature, humidity and environmental pressure with high-speed gradient. Capable Composite patches are used to repair damaged areas. Composite patches have unique properties such as high strength to weight ratio and corrosion resistance. In structures modified with a composite patch, various failures occur during loading, including: fiber breakage, matrix fracture, separation of fibers from the matrix or the latest patch from the main structure and failure of the metal... 

Growth of the fuel consumption in the world and the greenhouse effect of its pollution get industrial managers and environmental activities attention. Skin drag force has a significant role in energy uses. The drag reduction property of superhydrophobic surfaces shows a new approach for investigators to reduce energy uses. Surface with 150° contact angle called superhydrophobic surface.In this project, a superhydrophobic coating is developed based on acrylic hydroxyl resin by silica nanoparticles. This coating can be sprayed on any surface. Using the Iron oxid particles and silica nanoparticles together produces hierarchical micro-nano structures. This coating has a 160.1° contact angle on... 

In Mg–Si alloys, both primary and eutectic Mg2Si particles normally appear with sharp edges, which can lead to weak mechanical properties as the result of stress concentration at the sharp corners of these brittle particles. On the other hand, the morphology, size and distribution of Mg2Si particles affect corrosion behavior of Mg–Si alloys. Thus, it would be of great importance to modify the morphology of these particles. In this study, microstructure modification mechanisms after 0.5 wt% Y addition and heat treatment (HT) at 420 ◦C for 24 h are comprehensively studied in hypo-eutectic Mg–1Si and hyper-eutectic Mg–2Si alloys. Microstructural observations were performed using optical and... 

Cellulose nanocrystals as a reinforcement in polymer nanocomposites are part of current research for reasons such as source renewable, biocompatibility, nanoscale dimensions, high specific surface area, and surface chemistry. This research used cellulose nanocrystals as a corrosion inhibitor carrier in epoxy-based composite with 1% by weight. In order to load the corrosion inhibitor, firstly, cellulose nanocrystals were surface modified by aniline so that they can spread well in the hydrophobic epoxy matrix. Different corrosion inhibitors were tested for adsorption on the surface of cellulose nanocrystals modified with polyaniline, but finally the acidic agent of phosphoric acid showed... 

Magnesium has recently been considered as a biocompatible metal with mechanical properties close to bone for use in biological applications. On the other hand, the degradation properties of this metal in the physiological environment have made this metal superior to permanent biomaterials such as stainless steel, titanium alloys. The most important challenge of using this alkaline earth metal in the body environment is its rapid corrosion, which causes problems such as alkaline toxicity and loss of supporting role before complete tissue repair. In this study, Mg-Zn-Ag-Cu alloys were manufactured to improve mechanical strength, corrosion resistance and antibacterial properties. Finally, after... 

Wire-arc additive manufacturing is one of the types of additive manufacturing methods that creates the desired part through layer-by-layer deposition. Heat input and interlayer temperature have an important role in this process. Duplex stainless steels have a wide range of applications due to their high corrosion resistance in chloride environments and higher strength than austenitic stainless steels. In this study, the effect of heat input (0.3 kJ/mm and 0.8 kJ/mm) and interlayer temperature (250 ºC and 40 ºC) was investigated on the macrostructure, microstructure and mechanical properties of 2209 duplex stainless steel walls that produced by gas metal arc welding based wire-arc additive... 

Electrochemical deposition of multilayer coatings is one of the surface engineering techniques to create thin surface layers with a controlled structure in order to create desirable surface properties. In this research, the nickel-iron-silicon carbide multilayer coating is deposited from a single bath with a sulfate composition and by changing the current density between two values (10 and 40 mA/cm2). The number of layers in multilayer coating was 4, 8, 16, 32.The effect of current density and the number of layers on chemical composition, surface morphology, phase structure, corrosion resistance, nano hardness measurement, wear resistance of multilayer coatings respectively using electron... 

In this research project, the aim was to investigate the potential of olive leaf extract as an eco-friendly inhibitor for enhancing the corrosion resistance of reinforcing steel in simulated geopolymer concrete pore solution (GCP) containing chloride ions. The inhibitory effects of olive leaf extract were evaluated using various electrochemical techniques as well as scanning electron microscopy. The main phenolic compounds present in olive leaf extract were identified using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Moreover, the elements and chemical bonds present in the surface passive film of the steel bar immersed in the olive leaf inhibiting system were characterized using... 

Magnesium and its alloys are among the new degradable implants due to their characteristics such as biodegradability, low density, elastic modulus close to bone, and biocompatibility, which have received much attention from researchers. However, in most biological applications, the insufficient corrosion resistance of this alloy causes the accumulation of hydrogen gas around the implant, the loss of mechanical strength and its destruction before the completion of the treatment period. In this research, magnesium base alloys Mg–4Sn, Mg–4Sn–0.2Ag and Mg–4Sn–1Ag are investigated to improve mechanical strength and corrosion resistance. Finally, after casting and alloying, microstructural,...
