SIR NAPIER SHAW has recently devised a method of plotting upper air temperatures in the form of a curve which he has named a tephigram (T-ø-gram). The curve is plotted on squared paper on which the ...

High-temperature shock (HTS) is an emerging synthesis method with kinetics-dominated non-equilibrium characteristics, which can achieve an ultrafast heating/cooling rate of ~10 5 K/s and a peak ...

Physicists have upended a foundational law of materials science by heating gold to over 19,000°C — more than 14 times its melting point — while it remained perfectly solid. The study, published in ...

The porous (Ta0.2Nb0.2Ti0.2Zr0.2Hf0.2)C high-entropy ceramic possesses interconnected microspheres, abundant interface in the microspheres, and the severe lattice distortion of the high-entropy ...

As aeroengine thrust-to-weight ratios continue to improve, the operating temperature of their hot-end components has risen steadily, placing stricter demands on the performance of temperature sensors.

A strategy of multiscale collaborative design which combines high-entropy effect, dual-phase composition, highly porous structure and foam-gelcasting-freeze drying technique leads to uniform element ...
