Verifica a fatica dei giunti saldati sulla base di misure di deformazione locale by V. Dattoma, R. Nobile, F.W. Panella

“…Lo studio della resistenza a fatica delle giunzioni saldate rappresenta un campo di prova molto interessante dal punto di vista scientifico, con ricadute pratiche altrettanto importanti. Si tratta in generale di fornire dei metodi di verifica e progetto deterministici, come è proprio dell’ingegneria, per revedere il comportamento meccanico di un materiale che, quando è sotto forma di saldatura, cambia le sue proprietà meccaniche e microstrutturali rispetto al materiale base, si dispone in una geometria locale del cordone estremamente variabile e non definibile a priori, è infine affetto da campi di tensione residua  non proprio trascurabili. …”

Characterizing the impacts of seismic lines on the water budget of a Boreal Watershed in Alberta (Western Canada) by Daniels Kononovs, Christine Rivard, Dani Degenhardt, Katherine N. Snihur, Daniela Gutierrez-Rueda, Cody N. Lazowski, Kelly J. Rozanitis, Baptiste Coutret, Kurt O. Konhauser, Daniel S. Alessi

“…Seismic lines are one of the major footprints of the petroleum industry: they form cleared linear corridors in forests and their regeneration is generally poor. For this study, field measurements of soil, vegetation, water and snow were conducted on 5 paired (seismic line and adjacent undisturbed area) sites located in lowland and upland ecosites, and a 1-D physically based hydrologic model, the Simultaneous Heat and Water Model (SHAW), was used to investigate the impacts of seismic lines on the water budget over a year. …”

Phantom-based investigation of block sequential regularised expectation maximisation (BSREM) reconstruction for zirconium-89 PET-CT for varied count levels by Lara M. Bonney, Matthew D. Walker, Daniel R. McGowan

“…The effect of varying beta on several measures of image quality was characterised for the case of a phantom, with the results indicating that the value of beta for optimal Zr-89 quantitation is lower than what is generally used for optimal visualisation. This work demonstrates the need for careful attention to the reconstruction methods used for quantitative imaging studies, such as those required for theragnostic imaging.…”

Occurrence of Ionospheric Equatorial Ionization Anomaly at 840 km Height Observed by the DMSP Satellites at Solar Maximum Dusk by Jiacheng Li, Yiding Chen, Libo Liu, Huijun Le, Ruilong Zhang, He Huang, Wenbo Li

“…Abstract Although it is accepted that the electron density double peaks of the Equatorial Ionization Anomaly (EIA) generally merge into a single‐peak with increasing altitude and thus the signature of EIA becomes inconspicuous in the higher topside ionosphere, it is still unclear that to what altitudes the double‐peak structure can extend. …”
