...metallurgy/HIP and abrasive wear and aluminum sticking resistance of the materials have been investigated. The microstructure examination showed that Co-coated WC reinforcement was partly dissolved in a high speed steel (HSS) matrix and an interface layer of M6C formed, but both Co-coated WC and NbC reinforcements...

...engineering, economical, and political restrictions and be limited by the length of the injection period, costs associated with potential CO₂ leakage, pressure management, etc. We show how achievable storage volumes can be estimated and maximized using adjoint-based optimization and a hierarchy of simulation...

...generation remains relatively slow and limited to niche applications. Tooling issues are often pointed out but more fundamentally, experience shows that: (i) models and modeling languages used for other purposes are not necessarily well suited for code generation and (ii) code generators are often seen...

Agile retrospectives could help teams learn from the past and identify improvement opportunities. In this thesis we investigate the characteristics of the present retrospective practice and the organizational learning it provides for teams practicing them, through a multiple case-study. The research...

Uncertainty in the physicochemical and optical properties of volcanic ash particles creates errors in the detection and modeling of volcanic ash clouds and in quantification of their potential impacts. In this study, we provide a data set that describes the physicochemical and optical properties of a representative...

...regimes. However, we believe regimes have been black-boxed, and few studies have explored incumbents’ responses to transition processes. This article aims to achieve an improved understanding of incumbents in established energy sectors and their extent of involvement in other (niche) energy sectors....
