Purpose – This study aims to enable robotic friction stir welding (FSW) in practice. The use of robots has hitherto been limited, because of the large contact forces necessary for FSW. These forces are detrimental for the position accuracy of the robot. In this context, it is not sufficient to rely on the robot’s internal sensors for positioning. This paper describes and evaluates a new method for
Three different macroalgae, i.e., U. lactuca, U. linza, and U. compressa, have been studied for biological photovoltaic energy system (BPVE) using edge plane pyrolytic graphite as the supporting working electrode. The studied biophotoanodes were evaluated in terms of direct electron transfer (DET) and mediated electron transfer (MET) processes. Ferrocyanide (FeCN), p-benzoquinone (BQ), and 1,4-nap
Fluorescent InP-based quantum dots have emerged as valuable nanomaterials for display technologies, biological imaging, and optoelectronic applications. The inclusion of zinc can enhance both their emissive and structural properties and reduce interfacial defects with ZnS or CdS shells. However, the sub-particle distribution of zinc and the role this element plays often remains unclear, and it has
