The calculation of the surface-induced enhancement of the binding energy of hydrogen impurities in transition metals, previously reported for close-packed surfaces, are extended to open surfaces in the fcc and bcc structures. ...

Silica is very often the catalyst support of choice for transition metal oxides such as titania, and specially anatase. Titania is an excellent absorber and photocatalyst for many organic molecules degradation. In order ...

We study the effects of surface stress on the dynamics of a solid interface which evolves by surface diffusion. In the absence of surface stress, it is known that a flat interface is unstable for long wavelength perturbations ...

The purpose of this in vitro study was to evaluate the surface and resin-dentine interface characteristics of permanent tooth dentine cut with diamond or carbide burs and treated with phosphoric acid (PA) or an acidic ...

In this paper, the effect of nanovoid inelastic surface stress and austenite (A)–martensite (M) interface inelastic stress on the martensitic growth at the nanovoid surface is investigated. Within the phase field approach ...

The absorbances in the uv region of sodium p-toluene sulfonate, sodium toluate, sodium benzene sulfonate and sodium phenyl phosphate have been measured in the presence of increasing amounts of cetyl trimethyl ammonium ...
