ABSTRACTThe Dynamic Compaction of powdered materials becomes a particularly attractive technique for consolidating hard materials, because of the ease with which high pressures are achieved, and for metastable materials, because of the possibility of avoiding large-scale, high temperature excursions. The shock-wave conditions necessary for achieving high densities and interparticle bonding are evaluated experimentally. The bonding and melting taking place can be identified by post-consolidation studies, and the inter-relation between compact integrity and melting is shown. An attempt is made to develop a “process window” analogous to that of explosive bonding, to describe the conditions necessary for consolidation. Finally, in view of the necessity for localisation of plastic flow during consolidation, an indication of the influence of material deformation parameters is given.

When metal surfaces are placed together, the area over which they touch is usually very small. As a result, the localized pressures at the points of real contact are sufficiently high to produce plastic flow of the metal. Even under static conditions, these high pressures may produce “cold-welding” between the surfaces, and the metallic junctions so formed may be very strong. These junctions are sheared during sliding, and if they are stronger than the parent metals, heavy damage may result which is not limited to the interface at which intimate contact occurs. The growth and extension of this localized damage constitutes seizure. It follows that those factors which facilitate localized welding will, in general, increase the chances of large-scale seizure. Similarly, surface films which are capable of reducing localized adhesion will reduce the chances of seizure.

Greenhouse gas emissions must be cut to limit global warming to 1.5-2C above preindustrial levels. Yet the rate of decarbonisation is currently too low to achieve this. Policy-relevant scenarios therefore rely on the permanent removal of CO<sub>2</sub> from the atmosphere. However, none of the envisaged technologies has demonstrated scalability to the decarbonization targets for the year 2050. In this analysis, we show that artificial photosynthesis for CO<sub>2</sub> reduction may deliver an efficient large-scale carbon sink. This technology is mainly developed towards solar fuels and its potential for negative emissions has been largely overlooked. With high efficiency and low sensitivity to high temperature and illumination conditions, it could, if developed towards a mature technology, present a viable approach to fill the gap in the negative emissions budget.<br>
