A new method based on a light-gas gun has been proposed to synthesize Nb-Al alloys, and recovery capsule investigated. The copper-coated sample is accessible after shock wave loading. In this paper, we successfully which are high-temperature structural materials. X-ray diffraction employed clarify the characteristics of compounds impact, simulation diffractions structure. detail, tetragonal NbA...

Decision makers are commonly challenged with comparing, and ultimately ranking, elements regards to the degree which they satisfy multiple criteria in terms of their own preferences. This calls for a new decision making framework, we formally present here. Within such multi-criteria lex-cel: method ranking single elements. Furthermore, establish that our contributions generalise recent results ...
