Reevaluating the necessity of static shift correction in magnetotelluric inversion by Jingzhong Zeng, Jingzhong Zeng, Xiaobin Chen, Xiaobin Chen, Peijie Wang, Zhongyin Liu, Zhongyin Liu, Juntao Cai, Juntao Cai

“…Synthetic and field data tests indicate that the reduced inclusion of apparent resistivity data has minimal impact on inversion results, and due to the exclusion of data influenced by static shift, the inversion accurately reflects deep anomalous structures. This demonstrates that by excluding apparent resistivity data and relying solely on phase data at static-shifted sites, accurate inversion results can be achieved without additional static shift correction.…”

Analysis of the effect of cutting mode and coolant on the formation of burrs when drilling aluminum alloy AK5Mch by O. P. Evdokimova, D. S. Makashin

“…Drilling is carried out using coolant and without coolant using drills made of high-speed steel with a diameter of 6,0 mm with cutting speeds of 20, 42 and 60 m/min at a constant feed of 0,15 mm/rev. This study showes that drilling AK5MCH with a cutting speed of 42 m/min using a coolant is advantageous, as it leads to the least tool wear and minimal burr formation.…”

Comment on “Io Hot Spot Distribution Detected by Juno/JIRAM” by Zambon et al. by Ashley Gerard Davies

“…The outcome of these additional and missing detections is a skewing of volcanic activity toward high latitudes, suggesting more polar activity than that seen at lower latitudes. This distribution of thermal sources would support a preponderance of deep mantle tidal heating, a conclusion not supported by other analyses of the same data.…”
