Summary the article below in the bullet point :
How can engineers make steel that doesn\'t baulk at hydrogen?
For over 100 years engineers have known that hydrogen can cause metals to become incredibly
brittle, but they\'ve been able to do little to protect against it. Now, Oxford University researchers
are working on a large collaborative project to build the metals of the future, that can retain their
strength in the presence of this disruptive gas.
Steel has a reputation for being strong: it\'s used in everything from your car\'s chassis and the
reinforced concrete joists that supports buildings, to the internal workings of jet engines and the
cables that hold up the world\'s largest suspension bridges. But while advances in high-strength
steel technology theoretically allow engineers to use less of the material – making it possible to
create structures that are lighter as well as stronger – there exists a problem holding some of the
materials back from widespread adoption.
There are new materials sitting on the shelf that could be used for many kinds of applications –
construction, aerospace, cars, all sorts,\' explains Professor Alan Cocks from the University\'s
Department of Engineering Science. \'But companies are afraid to use some of them because of
their susceptibility to what\'s known as hydrogen embrittlement.\' First observed before the turn
of the 20th century, hydrogen embrittlement is a phenomenon where some materials –
particularly steel, but also metals like zirconium and titanium – become far weaker when
exposed to hydrogen.
Professor Cocks points out that some steels can suffer a decrease in strength by as much as a
factor of 10 when they\'re exposed to hydrogen, which means that they could fail when subjected
to just a tenth of the maximum stress they can usually withstand. If engineers could find a way to
overcome this weakness, they could more confidently use some materials – predominantly steels,
but also the likes of titanium for aerospace applications or the zirconium sheathing of nuclear
power rods.
\'It seems like it should be a straightforward problem to solve,\' explains Professor Cocks. \'But
there\'s immense controversy about why it happens, and despite lots of experimental studies and
theoretical modelling there\'s still no real solution.\' That\'s why researchers from Oxford
University are working on a large collaborative project – along with Cambridge University,
Imperial College London, King\'s College London and the University of Sheffield – to finally
understand its causes and build new materials that overcome them.
To make progress, the researchers decided to put together a team that understood metals from the
atom up. So the team includes Oxford scientists from the Department of Materials, who
investigate how materials work at the atomic level, and from the Department of Engineering
Science, who model the larger-scale properties of the materials and the ways that hydrogen can
move through the metallic s.
A Proposed Method for Safe Disposal of Consumed Photovoltaic ModulesIJERA Editor
The growth of domestic and large-scale applications of solar energy, especially photovoltaic (PV) cells which reaches annually up to 40 % worldwide since 2000, means that the technology has stepped out from demonstration phase to large-scale deployment. Several countries have started to exploit this huge potential as part of their future energy supply. Photovoltaic cells are manufactured from various semiconductors; materials that are moderately good conductors for electricity but harmful to the environment. End-of-life disposal of PV modules can be an environmental issue. However, due to the long lifespan of PV modules (25 to 30 years), currently most PV modules have not reached the disposal stage. As a result, there is very little experience and knowledge with the disposal and/or recycling techniques of PV modules. This paper proposes a method for safe disposal of solar panels after the end of their life by burying the PV cells into concrete blocks that may be used in different civil applications. Two types of PV cells (mono-crystalline & multi-crystalline) are selected to be mixed with concrete components to investigate their effect on properties of concrete. The experimental results showed that the PV cells have an effect on the concrete properties. Reduction of concrete compressive strength and density, while an increase in the concrete porosity were observed. In General, this study showed the validity of the proposed method to be further investigated for safe disposal of consumed photovoltaic modules

A metallic micro lattice is a synthetic porous metallic material consisting of an ultra-light metal foam. With a density as low as 0.99 mg/cm3
This manuscript is about the concrete specification. The concrete specification testing is a process by which different tests are carried out such as compressive strength, carbonation depth, ASTM rapid chloride permeability, NDT chloride and initial surface absorption test (ISAT-10) to determine the quality and performance of the concrete in terms of strength, carbonation depth, chloride permeability and surface absorption.
Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.

Using recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) for pavements is crucial to achieving sustainability. Implementing RCA for new pavement can minimize carbon footprint, conserve natural resources, reduce harmful emissions, and lower life cycle costs. Compared to natural aggregate (NA), RCA pavement has fewer comprehensive studies and sustainability assessments.

Hierarchical Digital Twin of a Naval Power SystemKerry Sado
A hierarchical digital twin of a Naval DC power system has been developed and experimentally verified. Similar to other state-of-the-art digital twins, this technology creates a digital replica of the physical system executed in real-time or faster, which can modify hardware controls. However, its advantage stems from distributing computational efforts by utilizing a hierarchical structure composed of lower-level digital twin blocks and a higher-level system digital twin. Each digital twin block is associated with a physical subsystem of the hardware and communicates with a singular system digital twin, which creates a system-level response. By extracting information from each level of the hierarchy, power system controls of the hardware were reconfigured autonomously. This hierarchical digital twin development offers several advantages over other digital twins, particularly in the field of naval power systems. The hierarchical structure allows for greater computational efficiency and scalability while the ability to autonomously reconfigure hardware controls offers increased flexibility and responsiveness. The hierarchical decomposition and models utilized were well aligned with the physical twin, as indicated by the maximum deviations between the developed digital twin hierarchy and the hardware.

9. Stress Corrosion
Cracking
• Corrosion due to mechanical stress
• For SCC to occur the requirements are
• A susceptible material
• an environment that causes SCC for
that material
• sufficient tensile stress to induce SCC
• Mechanisms involved
• Film Rupture mechanism
• Adsorption mechanism
Roger C. Newman , Stress-Corrosion Cracking Mechanisms, Chapter 11, Corrosion Mechanisms in Theory and Practice, Third Edition, 2011, Pages 499–
10. Mechanisms in SCC
• Film Rupture mechanism
• Plastic deformation of metal creates active
sites
• Active sites under stress promote propagation
of cracks
• Adsorption mechanism
• Involves adsorption of environmental species
• It lowers the bond strength
• It lowers the stress required for cleavage
• Crack propagation is dependent on rate of
arrival of species at the surface
SCC due to species adsorption
Roger C. Newman , Stress-Corrosion Cracking Mechanisms, Chapter 11, Corrosion Mechanisms in Theory and Practice, Third Edition, 2011, Pages 499–
544

• alloy 600 and 182 undergo SCC in
• steam generator tubes,
• RPV head penetrations and
• pressurizer nozzles
• Remedies

14. Intergranular attack(IGA)
• Uniform attack of grain boundaries
• Can occur without any stress
• But stress can increase IGA rate
• When stresses are high enough, IGA turns to SCC
• Examples
• Occurs in flow-restricted areas of steam generators
• Seen when mill-annealed alloy 600 tubes are used
• Remedies
• Replace alloy 600 with alloy 690
