Abstract Alongside rare‐earth metals, Ni, Fe, Co, Cu are some of the critical materials that will be in huge demand thanks to growth in clean‐energy sector. Herein scrap stainless steel wires (SSW) from worn‐out tires are employed as a support material for catalyst integration in the hydrogen evolution reaction (HER). In addition, SSW by corrosion engineering is exercised as an in situ formed freestanding robust electrode for the oxygen evolution reaction (OER). By superficial corrosion of SSW,

Abstract Disposal of e‐wastes in prescribed landfills poses serious environmental concerns at both a local and global scale. Recovering valuable materials from e‐wastes and utilizing them for development of eco‐design devices guides one to a more productive way of managing wastes. Recycled copper is capable of retaining its intrinsic properties and can be reused with same expectation of performances; capitalizing on this fact, herein, it is attempted to utilize copper from e‐waste as an economic

A catalyst of porous FeP nanorods on CNT backbones (FeP@CNT) is designed for the efficient OER and the effect of the unique structure on the OER performance is also investigated.

Abstract Numerical procedures for analysing transient responses of anisotropic viscoeiastic composite plates have been developed in the time domain using variational principles and a direct time integration method. Recursion relationships have been formulated in order to reduce computer storage substantially. The method developed herein requires only two previous lime solutions to evaluate the next time solution and the necessary storage is independent of the number of the time steps. Verificati

Designing highly active bifunctional electrocatalysts from Earth-abundant elements has great prospects for substituting precious-metal based catalysts in energy conversion processes, such as water splitting.
