Solar cells are considered as one of the prominent sources renewable energy suitable for large-scale adoption in a carbon-constrained world and can contribute to reduced reliance on imports, whilst improving security supply. A new arrival family solar technologies is organic-inorganic halide perovskite. The major thrust endorsing these pertains their potential an economically environmentally viable option traditional silicon-based technology. To verify this assertion, paper presents critical...
The rising cost of energy and concerns about the environmental impact manufacturing processes have necessitated need for more efficient sustainable manufacturing. ceramic industry is an intensive industrial sector consequently potential to improve efficiency huge, particularly through introduction modern sintering technologies. Although several been developed, there no comprehensive techno-economic analysis which compares contrasts these techniques. This paper presents a critical review...
Abstract Considered as a less hazardous piezoelectric material, potassium sodium niobate (KNN) has been in the fore of search for replacement lead (Pb) zirconate titanate piezoelectrics applications. Here, we challenge environmental credentials KNN due to presence ~60 wt% Nb 2 O 5 , substance much toxic humans than Pb oxide, but whose mining and extraction cause significant damage.
Four-dimensional (4D) printing of shape memory polymers is a leading research field due to the possibilities allowed by using these materials. The strain difference in structures that caused different stiffness profiles can be used influence shape-memory effect actuators. In this study, patterns on tested polylactic acid (PLA) actuators made shapes. Five bioinspired geometrical shapes, namely, circles, squares, hexagons, rhombuses, and triangles, are three-dimensional (3D) use shapes sizes...
Abstract The application of functional materials and devices (FM&Ds) underpins numerous products services, facilitating improved quality life, but also constitutes a huge environmental burden on the natural ecosystem, prompting need to quantify their value-chain impact using bottom-up life cycle assessment (LCA) framework. As volume FM&Ds manufactured increases, LCA calculation speed is constrained due time-consuming nature data collection processing. Moreover, framework limited in...
We explore an acoustofluidic phenomenon, in aqueous environment, of emerging early stagnation point that consistently positions itself at a distance two times the ultrasonic horn tip diameter 2D, regardless size. This was initially captured numerically two-dimensional domain horn-type reactors diameters D = 3, 6, 13, and 16 mm 107 × 50 cuvette. deduced axial extension bubble cluster influences rate decay flow; however, it does not affect point. Cavitation attenuation scrutinized by...
Purpose Following the recent rise in generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) tools, fundamental questions about their wider impacts have started to reverberate around various disciplines. This study aims track unfolding landscape of general issues surrounding GenAI tools and elucidate specific opportunities limitations these as part technology-assisted enhancement mechanical engineering education professional practices.

Medium-density fibreboard (MDF) belongs to a class of engineered wood products facilitating efficient use wastes. For this materials, the development predictive models is crucial for simulation their responses under mechanical loads. In study, samples sandwich structures based on MDF as skins and mushroom-based foam core are fabricated tested edgewise compression tests. Results from tests support idea that increasing thickness strengthens response structure against buckling failure, but also...
One of the many ways cavitation utilized for process intensification is through acoustically inducing it. As acoustic gained traction in recent industrial works, numerical modeling became an important study tool to scrutinize and optimize applications. However, available hydrodynamic models are found incapable accurately predicting structures flow features. This could source from oversimplification Rayleigh–Plesset equation or obscure effects empirical model constants. To address this issue,...

This study presents a distributed parameter model for the transverse vibration analysis of micro end mill. Owing to its geometrical nonuniformity, mill is spatially sub-structured into three distinct spinning elastic systems. With application extended Hamilton’s principle energy expressions systems, governing equations each system are obtained. The overall analytical incorporates number nonclassical structural effects that range from rotary inertia, shear deformation, taper ratio, rate...
Approximate numerical solutions are obtained for the vibration response of a functionally graded (FG) micro-scale beam entrapped within an axially-directed magnetic field using differential transformation method (DTM). Idealized as one-dimensional (1D) continuum with noticeable microstructural effect and thickness-directed material gradient, microbeam’s behavior is studied under range nonclassical boundary conditions. The immanent accounted through modified couple stress theory (MCST), while...
