On The Intrinsic Evolution Of Material Inhomogeneities, Marek Elźanowski, Marcelo Epstein
Mathematics and Statistics Faculty Publications and Presentations
The evolution of a distribution of material inhomogeneities (defects, dislo-cations, etc.) is investigated. Adopting our recently developed model of the anelastic evolution law of a defective solid crystal body and using the classical methods of the theory of hyperbolic waves we analyze such phenomena as the long-term relaxation of defects and the dislocation pile-up.

Journal of Electrochemistry
There exists a transition current density of Zn when the normal co-deposition of Zn-Ni alloys at chloride baths turns to anomalous type. The value increases with Cl- concentration, but is independent of pH, this is because the existence of Cl- decreases the evolution overpotential of Ni metal and has a catalytic effect on it.

Journal of Electrochemistry
Hydrogen diffusion coefficient in MlNi3.75Co0.65 Mn0.4Al0.2 metal hydride electrode has been determined with transition region of diffusion-controlled impedance. Multiple solutions were obtained at each data point because of the periodic characteristic of some functions used in the calculation, and the maximum difference between the solutions reached several orders of magnitude. On the other hand, the solutions varied for different data points in the transition region of diffusion-controlled impedance of the same experimental plot. It could be concluded that this method is not so well defined and some modification is required.
