Yahudi Geleneğinin Dönüşüm Sürecinde Şabat’ın Şekillenmesi/The Shaping of the Sabbath: The Transformative Journey of Jewish Tradition by Merve Yetim, Dursun Ali Aykıt

“…These shifts are often tied to moments of political disruption, exile, and reinvention, which necessitated new religious articulations and structures of authority. One of the clearest reflections of this historical dynamism is the institution of the Sabbath (Shabbat), whose evolving function and meaning serve as a valuable lens through which broader patterns of change in Judaism can be traced and analyzed. …”

Les toiles de Bretagne : une histoire à réinvestir by Élisabeth Loir-Mongazon, Judith Tanguy-Schröer

“…Within towns and villages, and in the countryside, their houses and workshops, along with those of the weavers, bear witness to the organisation of the trade and give indications as to its chronological evolution.Modest structures such as ponds or reservoirs for retting, heckling shops, kanndis (small buildings for bleaching the fibres), washing houses and ovens have only recently been surveyed as heritage and suggest that our understanding of the geographical distribution of the manufacturing activity should be considered anew, taking a broader look and integrating a history of hemp production alongside flax. …”

Investigation of residual stress influence on fatigue crack growth in remanufactured titanium alloy with inhomogeneous microstructure by Xiaohong Zhan, Wanli Ling, Xiaoping Wang, Qiyu Gao, Lijun Liu

“…The results indicate that interfacial residual stresses serve as additional loads, effectively increasing crack growth resistance (31 % decrease in m-value) while restricting plastic deformation at crack sub-surfaces, reducing the plasticity and toughness of inhomogeneous structures and speeding up crack propagation (40 % increase in crack growth rate), leading to the coexistence of high da/dN and low m-value phenomena in HAZ regions. …”
