Abstract The subject of the presented work was the analysis of the influence of the distance between the electrodes using in the coating process on the tribological properties of oxide coatings. Oxide coatings were prepared on EN AW-5251 aluminum alloy samples. The samples surfaces were subjected to hard anodizing process in a multicomponent electrolyte based on sulfuric acid with an addition of organic acids. Anodizing was carried out with a constant electric charge density of 180 A·min/dm2. The distances between the electrodes for subsequent samples increased every 0.125 m up to 1 m. The tribological partner in a sliding couple with oxide layers was pin of PEEK/BG. Tribological tests were conducted on a T-17 tester in reciprocating motion, in technically dry friction conditions. Before and after tribological test, examination of the geometrical structure of counter-specimens’ surface was carried out using the Form Talysurf contact profilographometer, via a 3D method. The most satisfactory tribological parameters were obtained for the PEEK/BG association with the coating produced at a distance between the electrodes equal to 0.25 m.

The article is devoted to the assessment of the geometrical structure of the surface as well as the mechanical and tribological properties of the surface layers obtained in the process of ion implantation. The titanium alloy Ti6Al4V used in biotribological systems was implanted with nitrogen and argon ions. Investigations of the geometrical structure of the surface before and after the tribological tests were carried out using confocal microscopy. The hardness of the tested materials was determined by the instrumental indentation method using a Vickers indenter. A nanotribometer was used for tribological tests. The tests were carried out in a reciprocating motion under conditions of technically dry friction and friction with the lubrication of Ringer's solution. SEM scanning microscopy was used to determine the width of the wear pattern and the wear mechanism. The conducted research showed that the hardness of the tested materials increased as a result of ion implantation. The tribological tests showed that the use of ion implantation improves the tribological properties, and the dominant wear mechanism was abrasive wear.

The route efferent vagal fibers travel to reach the left ventricle is not clear and was the subject of this investigation. We measured left ventricular and septal effective refractory period (ERP) changes during vagal stimulation and a constant infusion of norepinephrine, before and after phenol was applied at selected sites of the heart to interrupt efferent vagal fibers that may be traveling in that area. Phenol applied to the atrioventricular (AV) groove between the origin of the right coronary artery anteriorly to the posterior descending branch of the circumflex coronary artery completely eliminated vagal-induced prolongation of ERP in the anterior and posterior left ventricular free wall and reduced, but did not eliminate, ERP prolongation in the septum. A large (3-cm radius) epicardial circle of phenol prevented vagal-induced ERP prolongation within the circle in all dogs, while a small (1-cm radius) epicardial circle of phenol failed to prevent vagal-induced ERP changes within the circle in any dog. An intermediate (2-cm radius) circle eliminated vagal effects on ERP in 13 of 18 dogs. Arcs of phenol, to duplicate the upper portion of the circle, applied sequentially from apex to base eliminated efferent vagal effects only when painted near or at the AV groove. We conclude that the majority of efferent vagal fibers enroute to innervate the anterior and posterior left ventricular epicardium cross the AV groove within 0.25-0.5 mm (depth of phenol destruction) of the epicardial surface.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

This article focuses on the political narrative in Lebanon before and after the Israeli war against Lebanon in 2006. It revolves around the subject of national unity as a sine qua non condition for success for the Lebanese resistance led by Hezbollah. A major consequence of the narrative on national unity is the need to build a modern state and establish a cohesive defence policy. The paper also examines the impact of the war on Lebanon's economy and on its relations with the rest of the world (the USA, France, Syria, Arab countries, and Iran).

This article concerns the tribological properties of three selected polymer materials: polyamide PA6, polyethylene PE-HD and polyetheretherketone composite PEEK/BG during sliding against aluminium alloy EN AW-2017A in the presence of hydraulic oil HLP 68. The tests were carried out under contact pressure p of 3.5–11 MPa at ambient temperature T ranging from −20 °C to +20 °C. The dependence of kinetic friction coefficient μk on the two parameters was determined through tribological tests carried out using a pin-on-disc tribometer. A five-level central composite rotatable design (CCRD) was adopted for the experiment. All the test results were statistically analysed. The microhardness of the surface of the polymeric material was measured before and after the friction process. The surface was also examined under SEM. Temperature and contact pressure have been found to have a significant effect on the tribological properties of the tested sliding pairs. Relative to the applied friction conditions, the surfaces after friction showed rather heavy signs of wear.

The purpose of this paper, considering the relevance of Shera thoughts and its repercussions, is to reposition, in epistemological-historical terms, Jesse Shera’s approaches and their impacts according to a relation between life and work of the epistemologist. Without the intention of an exhaustive discussion, the purpose is to understand some unequivocal relations between the Shera critique for the context of its theoretical formulation and the consequences of this approach contrary to some tendencies originating from the technical and bureaucratic roots of the field (before and after World War II). It is deduced that Shera, rather than observing the sociopolitical reality and technical partner in which the texture of alibrary-based thought (but visualized by him as documentaryinformational), establishes, in his own praxis, social epistemology as a sort of "critique of the future," that is, as a praxis of the reflexive activity of the subject inserted in this episteme. In our discussion, the epistemological-social approach represents a vanguard for the context of its affirmation, a reassessment for the immediate decades to its presentation(years 1960 and 1970) and a critique for the future of what was consolidated under the notion of information Science, anticipating affirmations of "social nature" of the 1980s and 1990s in the field of information.

The chapter discusses the tribological properties of samples with multilayer composite nanostructured Ti-TiN-(Ti,Cr,Al,Si)N, Zr-ZrN-(Nb,Zr,Cr,Al)N, and Zr-ZrN-(Zr,Al,Si)N coatings, as well as Ti-TiN-(Ti,Al,Cr)N, with different values of the nanolayer period λ. The relationship between tribological parameters, a temperature varying within a range of 20–1000°C, and λ was investigated. The studies have found that the adhesion component of the coefficient of friction (COF) varies nonlinearly with a pronounced extremum depending on temperature. The value of λ has a noticeable influence on the tribological properties of the coatings, and the nature of the mentioned influence depends on temperature. The tests found that for the coatings with all studied values of λ, an increase in temperature first caused an increase and then a decrease in COF.
