Flood risk analysis under consideration of river system dynamics and spatial temporal scales by Oliver, Julien

“…The frameworks proposed rely on modelling chains, with several or all of the following components: (i) long-term continuous and spatially coherent forcing events, (ii) a probabilistic river channel model, (iii) a stochastic structure failure model, (iv) an efficient inundation modelling strategy, and (v) a probabilistic damage simulation model. …”

Interdependent intermetallic compound growth in an electroless Ni-P/Sn-3.5Ag reaction couple by Kumar, Aditya, Chen, Zhong

“…It was found that the Ni3Sn4 and Ni3P layers grow predominantly as long as the electroless Ni-P layer is present; however, once the Ni-P layer is fully consumed, the Ni2SnP layer grows rapidly at the expense of the Ni3P layer. …”
