The effect of high-temperature intercritical annealing and rolling strain on the development of trimodal microstructure in low-carbon steel by Somayyeh Gholamalipour, Roohollah Jamaati, Seyed Jamal Hosseinipour

“…After intercritical annealing at the high temperature (830 °C), two different morphologies including lath and plate were formed for the martensite phase due to the short-term intercritical annealing treatment without prior homogenization. After the final heat treatment, the coarsest cementite particles belonged to the 25% deformed sample. …”

The effect of income and smallholder characteristics on cultivation, harvesting, and post-harvest management of natural rubber by . Nurliza

“…The acceptance of sustainable cultivation and management of rubber practices uses smallholder and farm factors as constraints since they do not form a homogenous group, and the theory of planned behavior failed to provide an effective way to explain the behaviors. …”

Semi-in-situ cutting force measurement of a jigsaw by Sándor Apáti, György Hegedűs, Sándor Hajdu

“…Tests on materials like acacia wood, aluminum alloy (AlMgSi1), and methamid (P6) showed significant differences in how they cut because of their density and homogeneity. The results show that the forces needed to cut materials depend on the size of the chip being removed, and this is important for making tools last longer and cutting more accurately. …”
