Nanosized κ-Carbide and B2 Boosting Strength Without Sacrificing Ductility in a Low-Density Fe-32Mn-11Al Steel by Changwei He, Yongfeng Shen, Wenying Xue, Zhijian Fan, Yiran Zhou

“…It is encouraging to notice that the yield strength increased without scarifying ductility, compared to the ST steel. The key reason is that the high strain hardening rate is activated by combined factors, including the blockage of numerous twins and nanoscale B2 to the dislocation movements, and dynamic slip band refinement. …”

Determining Symmetry Properties of Gravitational Fields of Terrestrial Group Planets by R.A. Kascheev, I.O. Novlyanskaya

“…The sets of coefficients are different in quantity of numerical parameters, sources and composition of the initial observational data, methods to obtain and process them, and, consequently, in a variety of properties and accuracy characteristics. For this reason, the task of comparison of different models of celestial bodies considered in the paper is of interest and relevant. …”

“Energy for Free” in Resonance Electrical Circuits by Ophir Flomenbom

“…The application (for example, a train of LED bulbs) is placed in between the two ends of the electrical resonance part of the circuit; the circuit can power many more light bulbs than just the PSU can. The reason that the coefficient of performance (COP), COP [Formula: see text]/[Formula: see text], is larger than 1 is that the electrical signal is in a resonance that does not decay at all at the PSU frequency f of 30[Formula: see text]kHz. …”

UAV Data Collection Co-Registration: LiDAR and Photogrammetric Surveys for Coastal Monitoring by Carmen Maria Giordano, Valentina Alena Girelli, Alessandro Lambertini, Maria Alessandra Tini, Antonio Zanutta

“…When georeferencing is a key point of coastal monitoring, it is crucial to understand how the type of data and object characteristics can affect the result of the registration procedure, and, above all, how to assess the reconstruction accuracy. For this reason, the goal of this work is to evaluate the performance of the iterative closest point (ICP) method for registering point clouds in coastal environments, using a single-epoch and multi-sensor survey of a coastal area (near the Bevano river mouth, Ravenna, Italy). …”

Adherence to CRC Screening and Surveillance Guidelines when Using Split-Dose Bowel Preparation by Stacy B. Menees, H. Myra Kim, Grace H. Elta, Sheryl Korsnes, Philip Schoenfeld

“…Endoscopists’ reports cited suboptimal bowel preparation as the most common reason for earlier repeat colonoscopy. On multivariable analysis, patient split-dose preparation noncompliance was significantly associated with guideline-inconsistent recommendation (OR = 2.7) even after adjusting for other patient or bowel preparation-related characteristics. …”

The Process‐Oriented Understanding on the Reduced Double‐ITCZ Bias in the High‐Resolution CESM1 by Enze Dong, Fengfei Song, Lixin Wu, Lu Dong, Shengpeng Wang, Fukai Liu, Hong Wang

“…Here, by comparing a high‐ and low‐resolution state‐of‐the‐art model CESM1, it is found that the double‐ITCZ bias is largely reduced in the high‐resolution CESM1. The key reason is the realistic colder sea surface temperature (SST) over the southeast Pacific (SEP) in the high‐resolution model. …”

Performance Comparison between Neutralization Tailings and Flotation Tailings Used for Backfill Mix and Mechanism Analysis by Bin Han, Wei Sun, Shaofeng Yu, Chao Liu, Song Yao, Jianxun Wu

“…Slurry fluidity of neutralized tailings is lower than that of flotation tailings, while, in these two tailings, the difference of slump and diffusivity values is less than 6%, which is not a significant difference in slurry fluidity. The reason for neutralized tailings showing higher UCS is as follows: during backfill curing, neutralization tailings produce abundant crystals of CaSO4·2H2O in interlaced structure which helps in combining aggregates closely; CaSO4·2H2O hydrates with C3A C4AF contained in the cement and forms clavate cement bacillus which works as a micro reinforcing steel bar. …”
