The multicomponent exchange of metals between magmatic fluids and silicate melts by Gion, AM, Gaillard, F

“…We further present a model based on these experimentally determined apparent equilibrium constants that is capable of calculating fluid-melt equilibria. This model can subsequently be used to predict fluid-melt partition coefficients for metals, as well as chlorine and fluorine, over a wide range of P-T-X conditions.…”

Study on process parameter optimization for electron beam melting additive manufacturing by Wang, Chengcheng

“…Electron beam melting additive manufacturing (EBM-AM), also known as selective electron beam melting (SEBM), is a mainstream metal additive manufacturing (AM) technique that employs an electron beam to process metallic powder feedstocks in vacuum environment (~ 10-4 - 10-5 mbar) at elevated temperatures (~ 500 - 1100 °C). …”

Spatter transport by inert gas flow in selective laser melting : a simulation study by Ahmad Bin Anwar, Ibrahim, Imran Halimi, Pham, Quang-Cuong

“…Spattering is an unavoidable phenomenon during Selective Laser Melting (SLM). The distinctively large and dark solidified molten particles have always been observed on the powder bed, leading to the potential deterioration of the final printed parts. …”

Raising Two More Fundamental Questions Regarding the Classical Views on the Rheology of Polymer Melts by Ibar, Jean Pierre

“…Our conclusion is that the classical formulation of the viscosity of polymer melts is so overly simplified that it is missing important experimental facts, such as period doubling for the separation of T and M, TLL, M’c, and Mc, resulting in its inability to understand the true nature of entanglements. …”

‘Who’s the fairest of them all?’ The impact of men on the stepmother-daughter relationship in Snow White by Tan, Aaron Justin Li Jie

“…In fairy tales, there are no ambiguities or complications but instead, straightforwardness in the narrative trajectory, where good deeds are rewarded and wicked deeds punished as seen in the ‘happily ever after’ of Snow White and the cruel ending of the stepmother. …”

Clinical Significance of Hyponatremia in Tuberculous Meningitis: A Prospective Cohort in Indonesia by Dian, S, Ardiansyah, E, Chaidir, L, van Laarhoven, A, Ruslami, R, Alisjahbana, B, Rizal Ganiem, A, van Crevel, R

“…Severe hyponatremia associated with male, younger age, a lower Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS), and markers of more severe disease (P < .05). …”

Endogenous institutionalism and the puzzle of gender quotas: insights from Latin America by Gatto, MLAC

“…Firstly, although previously identified, the resistance of male legislators towards gender quotas had never been systematically analysed in a comparative manner; focusing on the behaviour of male incumbents is thus a relevant contribution. …”

Deformation and its surface expression in stressed planetary materials by Seltzer, Cassandra

“…Chapter 2 finds that in partially molten rocky materials, microstructural melt aligns parallel to the maximum applied stress direction quickly over geological time, while crystallographic orientations require significant strain intervals to reset. …”

Nb and Ta intracrustal differentiation during granulite-facies metamorphism: evidence from geochemical data of natural rocks and thermodynamic modeling by Huang, G, Chen, Y, Guo, J, Palin, R, Zhao, L

“…As biotite preferentially incorporates Nb over Ta, the early stages of biotite dehydration melting produce a high-Nb/Ta residue and a low-Nb/Ta melt; however, geochemical modeling suggests that once biotite is depleted, the Nb/Ta ratio of the system is instead controlled by rutile growth, which promotes the formation of a lower Nb/Ta residue and a higher Nb/ Ta melt, even though the volume of melt produced at this stage may be small. …”

Gender systems in the Putin autocracy by Wood, Elizabeth A.
