The aim of this study is to determine the differences in the damaged layer degradation kinetics in two-phase lithium-containing ceramics based on Li2ZrO3 and Li4SiO4 compounds in the case of irradiation with protons and helium ions, simulating the gas swelling and blistering processes, as well as the accumulation of radiolysis products in the damaged layer. During the ...

Industrial Internet of things (IIoT) environments need to implement reliable security measures because of the growth in network traffic and overall connectivity. Accordingly, this work provides the architecture of network traffic analysis and the detection of intrusions in a network with the help of edge computing and using machine-learning methods. The study uses k-means and ...

With the continuous expansion of the global automobile fleet, there is an escalating demand to enhance and maintain current road infrastructure. Given the information provided, there will be a growing demand for bitumen, a key raw material used in the manufacturing of asphalt. Bitumen may account for up to 60% of the total usage in asphalt production. This study aims to determine ...

Municipal solid waste (MSW) recycling is critical in addressing the environmental challenges posed by increasing urbanization and waste generation. This study explores the use of fast pyrolysis technology with solid heat carriers for efficient MSW processing. The technology, originally developed for oil shale processing, involves the thermal decomposition of waste in an ...

The physicochemical properties of natural bentonite and its sorbents were studied. It has been established the modification of natural bentonites using polyhydroxoxides of iron (III) (mod.1_Fe_5-c) and aluminum (III) (mod.1_Al_5-c) by the “co-precipitation” method led to changes in their chemical composition, structure, and sorption properties. It was shown that modified ...

The study evaluates the dynamics and condition of post-fire forest recovery in the Amankaragay massif of the Kostanay region, Republic of Kazakhstan, which has been subjected to both natural and anthropogenic pyrogenic influences, resulting in structural transformations within the forest ecosystems and pyrogenic succession processes. The objective of this research is to assess ...

Single and multilayer electrolytes for anode-supported solid-oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) have been prepared by reactive magnetron sputtering and their electrochemical properties have been investigated. Electrolyte layers based on gadolinia-doped ceria (GDC) and yttria-stabilized zirconia (YSZ) were formed on NiO/YSZ substrates. The cells with single (YSZ), double (YSZ-GDC) and ...

This paper presents a new analysis of the experimental transmission spectra of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) films before and after irradiation with swift heavy ions (SHI) films, as reported previously by the authors. It is shown that the absorption edge red shift for irradiated films contains two regions of exponential form, one of which is located in the UV region and the ...

The direction of organic electronics research is attracting more and more interest from the scientific community. One of the indicators of such interest is the appearance of commercially available products with screens based on organic compounds. Therefore, conducting experimental and theoretical research in this area is an urgent task. Pentacoordination neutral complexes of ...

This work is dedicated to the study of the properties of perovskite ceramics based on lanthanum–strontium ferrite, and to the evaluation of their resistance to long-term thermal aging. As a method for obtaining perovskite ceramics, the method of solid-phase mechanochemical grinding and consequent thermal annealing of the resulting mixtures was chosen. The novelty of the study ...
