“Materials Science” Challenges in the Additive Manufacturing of Industrial Parts by Hascoet, Jean-Yves, Marya, Surendar, Marya, Manuel, Singh, Virendra

“…Additive Manufacturing (AM), somewhat like fusion welding, brings into play: (1) complex and interacting physical phenomena such as heat and mass transfer, phase changes (including melting, solidification, allotropic transformations and diffusion phenomena such as epitaxial growth, grain growth), (2) a number of process variables associated to the moving heat source (e.g., its power, power distribution, relative speed, size, all affecting energy density), its paths (e.g., linear, circular, oscillatory), and added metal feed rate via powder, wire, or ribbon, all controlling deposit dimensions, aspect-ratios, and properties, including defects. …”

'Remaking Greater Britain': Cecil Rhodes and imperial politics, 1880-1902 by Hunt, DM

“…Rhodes is positioned as a case study for how settler states and their leaders related to Britain as the centre of imperial power and decision making and shows that Rhodes envisaged a closer constitutional arrangement for the British Empire, based on the principles of ‘Greater Britain’. This brings new emphasis to the political exchange between London and the settler states which has been explored less by the British world school in recent decades than other areas such as culture, identity and migration. …”
