TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

What Is EHD?
Examining the concepts involved in hydrodynamic lubrication is fundamental to our understanding of elastohydrodynamics.

FEATURE ARTICLE

Lubricating Titanium Alloys
Resolving lubrication issues is the last step in widespread commercialization of this material, which has many desirable qualities.

TECH BEAT I 

Effective NO_x reduction without using precious metals
A synthetic natural silicate mineral can reduce NO_x emissions without the use of platinum.

TECH BEAT II 

Understanding nanostructure formation from building blocks
A series of theoretical experiments shows how the shape of a particle can generate a specific structure.

TECH BEAT III 

Determination of structure of new carbon allotrope
Researchers use experimental data to predict the structure of M-carbon formed at room temperature under pressure.
