Growth kinetics and mechanical characterization of boride layers formed on Ti6Al4V by Özger Onur Yiğit, Avcı Şenol

“…Although Ti6Al4V alloy is used in a wide variety of engineering fields such as automotive, aerospace, chemical, marine, and medical, it has significant disadvantages such as low hardness and wear resistance. The boriding process, which is one of the methods applied to improve the surface properties of the material, is based on the principle of increasing the surface quality of the material by creating a TiB2 and TiB layer on the surface of the material by boron diffusion. …”

Honey bee behaviours within the hive: Insights from long-term video analysis. by Paul Siefert, Nastasya Buling, Bernd Grünewald

“…However, the various behaviours inside the colony, especially within the cells, are hidden from sight, and until recently, were primarily described through texts and line drawings, which lack the dynamics of moving images. In this study, we provide a comprehensive source of online video material that offers a view of honey bee behaviour within comb cells, thereby providing a new mode of observation for the scientific community and the general public. …”
