In Situ Study of Surface Morphology Formation Mechanism During Laser Powder Bed Fusion by Yuhui Zhang, Hang Ren, Hualin Yan, Yu Long

“…Results indicate that LPBF intermediate layer surfaces are influenced by energy density, melt pool behavior, and previous layer morphology, forming complex topological structures. At a low energy density, insufficient powder melting causes balling, extended by subsequent melt pools to form a reticulated structure and local large-scale protrusions. …”

A Nexus of Biomolecular Complexities in Pituitary Neuroendocrine Tumors: Insights into Key Molecular Drivers by Ligia Gabriela Tataranu

“…Although the intricacy of this pathology is yet to be fully understood on a biomolecular level, it is well known that these lesions develop within a microenvironment that supports their evolution and existence. The role of the tumoral microenvironment in pituitary lesions is pivotal, mainly due to this gland’s distinct anatomical, histological, and physiological structure and function. …”

Las Mujeres y el Mito de la Agricultura de Subsistencia. De la exportación de alimentos a la dependencia alimentaria en el sur de Mozambique by Albert Farré

“…In this article we propose an historical perspective to look at changes in rural areas of Southern Mozambique before colonialism, during colonialism and after the independence. By focusing on the evolution of rural markets, social inequalities, kin and other hierarchies that structure rural societies, we propose that concepts as subsistence agriculture and family sector, if used without taking into account historical changes, tend to simplify too much ever changing rural complexities. …”

Le Maroc dans l’affiche française (1906-1956) by Pascal Blanchard

“…Between 1906 and 1956 Morocco became a place of inspiration for French poster artists, at the same time as it was drawn into the imperial structure of the Third Republic. This was evident as Morocco developed into one of the recurrent « themes » of poster production in the colonial context, in step with the absorption of the protectorate into the colonial geography of France; but it was a latecomer to this graphic universe, which explains its specific position and the relative uniformity of the output. …”
