Intermetallic metal hydrides are critical materials for hydrogen storage applications, however, metal hydrides with greater storage capacities are still needed. Within metal hydrides, the volumetric storage capacities are limited by the number of hydrogen

We have investigated the magnetic correlations among 7 nm iron oxide nanoparticles embedded in stretched silicone elastomers using polarized Small Angle Neutron Scattering (SANS). The magnetic nanoparticle (MNP)-elastomer composite can be stretched during

Objectives. Photopolymerized composites are used in a broad range of applications with their performance largely directed by reaction kinetics and contraction accompanying polymer-ization. The present study was to demonstrate an instrument capable of
The effect of filler content in dental restorative composites on the polymerization shrinkage stress (PS) is not straightforward and has caused much debate in the literature. Our objective in this study was to clarify the PS/filler content relationship

This paper gives a summary of implementation activities in the realm of FAIR Digital Objects (FDO). It gives an idea which software components are robust and used for many years, which components are comparatively new and are being tested out in pilot

The use of colloidal theory for describing protein-protein interactions is a topic of ongoing debate in the biophysical community. This contention stems from the unavailability of synthetic protein-like model particles that are amenable to systematic

Hard/soft magnetic bilayer thin films have been widely used in data storage technologies and permanent magnet applications. The magnetic configuration and response to temperatures and magnetic fields in these composite systems are considered to be highly d

We consider the constrained-occupancy and (linear-response) self-consistent-field methods for screening of core-hole potentials that affect core excitation near-edge spectra. The methods are not exact, but each has distinct advantages and limitations. The
A fundamental equation of state in terms of the Helmholtz energy is presented for vinyl chloride. Due to its fundamental nature, it can be used to consistently calculate all thermodynamic state properties in the fluid region. Based on the underlying

We present a new wide-ranging correlation for the viscosity of propane-1,2-diol (propylene glycol) based on critically evaluated experimental data. The correlation is designed to be used with an existing equation of state, and it is valid from the triple

Bayesian optimization (BO) is a well-developed machine learning (ML) field for black-box function optimization. In BO, a surrogate predictive model, here a Gaussian process, is used to approximate the black-box function. The estimated mean and uncertainty

Developing structure-performance relationships with the underlying goal of optimizing known zeolite catalysts involves the manipulation of their physicochemical properties. Here, we systematically assessed the impact of mesoscopic gradients in acid site

We report magnetization (χ, M), magnetic specific heat (CM), and neutron powder diffraction results on a quasi-two-dimensional (2D) S = 2 square lattice antiferromagnet Ba 2FeSi 2O 7 consisting of FeO 4 tetrahedrons with highly compressive tetragonal
Materials researchers are generating data in ever-increasing volumes, and this data is, in turn, fueling the discovery and design of new materials. These changes are enabled by advances in data capture via laboratory information management systems (LIMS)
In the framework of a collaborative project between ASME, NASA, and NIST, instrumented Charpy tests have been performed at liquid nitrogen temperature (77 K, or 196 °C) on specimens extracted from the center of four 316L welded stainless steel plates, each
