Effect of heat treatment on microstructures and mechanical properties of Inconel 718 additively manufactured using gradient laser power by Xu, Luming, Chai, Ze, Peng, Bo, Zhou, Wei, Chen, Xiaoqi

“…The as-deposited GLP samples with fine discrete Laves phases and a low SR can achieve a relatively uniform element distribution and γ′′ and γ′ phase precipitation after standard solution treatment plus aging (STA), while CLP samples with coarse long-chain Laves phases and high SR require a high-temperature homogenization plus STA (HSTA) heat treatment to achieve the uniform element distribution. …”

Statistical methods and analyses in autoimmune diseases by Inshaw, J

“…</p> <p>Finally, I performed an ImmunoChip-wide meta-analysis of 59, 974 individuals, approxi- mately twice the sample size of the previous largest T1D genetic analysis, and identified 74 chromosome regions associated with T1D, including 22 novel regions. I fine mapped each region and confirmed that prioritised variants were enriched in open chromatin re- gions in lymphoid cells. …”

Variational models in martensitic phase transformations with applications to steels by Muehlemann, A

“…</p> <p>In Chapter 4, we focus on highly compatible, so called self-accommodating, martensitic structures and present new results on their fine properties such as estimates on their minimum complexity and bounds on the relative proportion of each martensitic variant in them. …”
