Two roughness parameters: the average surface roughness (R a) and the maximum surface roughness (maximum height of profile, R z) were used to evaluate the surface quality of the specimens.Surface ...

The interfacial breakdown between two dielectric surfaces has been reported to represent one of the principal causes of failure for power cable joints and connectors; thus, a better understanding of ...

The root mean square (RMS) surface roughness of the bleached hair can be calculated by using the software of the AFM instrument. These data supply the quantification of the degradations suffered by ...

Triggered by the microstructure characteristics of the surfaces of typical plant leaves such as the petals of red roses, a biomimetic superhydrophobic surface with high adhesion is successfully ...

An anodic alumina oxide (AAO) film with nano-roughening is added on the top window layer of AlGaInP light-emitting diodes (LEDs) to improve the light extraction of the device. The AAO film has a ...

Taylor Swift made a shocking announcement about her highly-anticipated “Reputation (Taylor’s Version)” album after revealing that she bought back her entire masters. “I know, I know.

Wear, 259, 125-134. ... porosity, roughness, and corrosion significantly influenced the test results. The wear mechanism reveals that the erosive component prevails in the wear-corrosion synergy. ...
