Some papers, but not others. Not theory papers, for example. Not the
papers about particle-beam loading or advanced electrochemistry. An
amateur will probably not understand this paper, for example:

Abstract:
"Based on the Volmer-Heyrovsky-Tafel mechanism, Frumkin adsorption
and thermodynamic data of hydrogen (deuterium) absorption in Pd,
effects of surface parameters on the hydrogen (deuterium) loading
ratio into Pd in the hydrogen (deuterium) evolution reaction are
discussed. There is a change of mechanism from the Volmer-Tafel route
to the Volmer-Heyrovsky route when the current density rises, and
there exists the maximum loading ratio at a certain current density
when the symmetry factor of the Heyrovsky step is less than that of
the Volmer reaction. The theoretical results fit the experimental
data presented before very well; other factors that affect the
loading ratio are discussed as well."
I could probably translate that from Japanese, but I do not
understand what it means in any detail.
