The analysis of inter-leg coordination in insect walking is generally a study six-legged locomotion. For decades, the stick Carausius morosus has been instrumental for unravelling rules and mechanisms that control leg hexapeds. We analysed C. freely walked on straight paths plane surfaces with different slopes. Consecutive 1.7 s sections were assigned patterns (which we call gaits) based footfall patterns. Regular gaits, i.e. wave, tetrapod or tripod occurred proportions depending surface...
High entropy alloys: AlCrFe2Ni2Mox (x = 0.00, 0.05, 0.10, 0.15), AlCoCrFeNi and two quinary alloys with compositions close to its face centered cubic (FCC) body (BCC) component phases, are tested for corrosion resistance in 3.5 wt. % NaCl. The materials different microstructure produced by arc melting or ingot metallurgy evaluated several electrochemical techniques: measurements of open circuit voltage (OCV), cyclic potentiodynamic polarization, impedance spectroscopy (EIS). Microstructure,...
A two-phase fully lamellar titanium aluminide alloy, Ti46Al8Nb, was exposed to air at temperatures ranging from 700 900°C. Isothermal and cyclic oxidation tests were conducted for up 1000 h. Oxidation kinetics followed by gravimetric measurements. Post-test examination of specimens comprised light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy/energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDS), transmission miscoscopy/EDS, diffraction, photoelectron spectroscopy, secondary ion mass spectrometry, glow...
Electrochemical noise (EN) denotes spontaneous fluctuations in potential and current originating from the corrosion processes. In this work, EN was measured for three model metallic materials of known properties: Al, Fe Fe30Al. Corrosion behaviour assessed neutral, acidic or alkaline solutions containing 4 wt% NaCl. Correlation between electrochemical intensity established on basis appropriate treatment recorded numerical data ex situ examination specimen surface. The parameter, referred to...
