TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide a comprehensive review of biodiesel as an alternative fuel for marine diesel engine applications and conclude that biodiesel and its blends have a bright future in the marine sector, provided some of the highlighted issues can be solved.

TL;DR: In this paper, the compatibility of phase change materials (PCMs) with various container materials was reviewed and it was revealed that stainless steel has emerged as the most compatible storage container material among others, while aluminum was found to be corrosive when it is used with salt hydrates.

TL;DR: The importance and significance of nanofluid on the performance of solar collectors especially on thermal properties are extensively described in this article, where six types of solar collector's viz. flat plate, evacuated tube, direct absorber, parabolic trough, solar dish, and photovoltaic thermal solar collector performance has been extensively reviewed.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors describe the wear mechanism and tool life when machining Hastelloy C-22HS with coated carbide, and the results indicated that PVD cutting tools performed better than CVD tools, in terms of tool life with current parameters.

TL;DR: In this paper, copper (II) oxide nanoparticles were dispersed in SAE10W-30 to reduce wear and friction on a piston skirt-liner contact tester, and the material used was aluminium 6061, which is the standard material for piston skirt.
