Strategic enhancement of joint strength in dissimilar Al/Mg alloys: a workable approach for aerospace application by S. Suresh, Elango Natarajan, Kalaimani Markandan, S. Sudhagar, Gnanasambandam Anbuchezhiyan, R. Elayaraja

“…The addition of SiC nanoparticles modifies the weld microstructure, reducing the formation of brittle Al–Mg IMCs and promoting the development of finer, well-distributed Mg–SiC IMCs, resulting in a more favorable and homogeneous multilayered structure. The incorporation of SiC significantly enhances the strength of the joints, achieving a maximum of 5.68 kN, 22.7% increase compared to SiC-free Al/Mg joints. …”

Analysis of variation in charges and prices paid for vaginal and caesarean section births: a cross-sectional study by Renee Y Hsia, Yaa Akosa Antwi, Ellerie Weber

“…However, the institutional and market-level factors included in our models explained only 35–36% of the between-hospital variation in charges.Conclusions These results indicate that charges and discounted prices for two common, relatively homogeneous diagnosis groups—uncomplicated vaginal delivery and caesarean section—vary widely between hospitals and are not well explained by observable patient or hospital characteristics.…”
