Numerical study of TRIP transformation in 35NCD16 steel-effects of plate orientation and some criteria by Mounir Gaci, Fedaoui Kamel, Lazhar Baroura, Amar Talhi

“…The prediction transformation of induced plasticity (TRIP) was evaluated by taking into account the following parameters: twenty shear directions of the martensitic plates, two values of the shear deformation of the martensitic plates, energetic and thermodynamics criteria for getting in order the transformation of the martensitic plates, elastoplastic behavior of the two areas in the first case (martensitic plate and grain boundary) and elastic behavior for the grain boundary in the second case. …”

Quantitative Investigation on the Contributing Factors to the Contact Angle of the CO2/H2O/Muscovite Systems Using the Frumkin-Derjaguin Equation by Masashige Shiga, Masaatsu Aichi, Masao Sorai

“…In this paper, we studied its mechanisms and the contributing factors by calculating the Frumkin-Derjaguin equation, which is based on the thermodynamics of the interfacial system. Results show that a decrease of pH is a critical factor for the wettability alteration at a lower pressure range (0.1 MPa to 3.0 MPa). …”

Biogeophysical Radiative Forcings of Large‐Scale Afforestation in Europe Are Highly Localized and Dominated by Surface Albedo Change by Ryan M. Bright, Luca Caporaso, Gregory Duveiller, Matteo Piccardo, Alessandro Cescatti

“…Forest area change alters not only the surface albedo but also heat, moisture, and momentum fluxes, which in turn modify the atmosphere's radiative, thermodynamical, and dynamical properties. These so‐called radiative forcing “adjustments” have been little examined in re‐/afforestation contexts, and many questions remain surrounding their relevance in relation to the instantaneous forcing from the surface albedo change—and whether they can affect Earth's radiative energy balance in regions remote from where the re‐/afforestation occurs. …”
