Paleobiological Perspectives on the Early Upper Paleolithic Human Transition in the Northwestern Old World by Erik Trinkaus

“…The emerging consensus that the emergence of modern humans in the northwestern Old World involved temporally and geographically varying degrees of admixture between Neandertals and early modern humans within the early Upper Paleolithic provides the framework for assessing the complex mosaic of biobehavioral changes which took place across the transition. Despite a series of paleobiological similarities involving cognitive, masticatory and locomotor behaviors, as well as temporal and cultural overlap between the two groups, there remain contrasts in the anterior dentition, the upper limb, femoral structural patterns, stress levels, demographic profiles and stable isotopes. …”

Mechanical properties and corrosion behavior of circular oscillating laser direct energy deposited nickel-based superalloy after different heat-treatment processes by Yelin Xia, Haoran Wu, Keyi Liu, Jianbo Lei, Yabao Hu, Hanning Chen, Chen Zheng

“…After solution treatment, the microstructure was completely recrystallized, and the striped Laves phase is dissolved and transformed into granules, improving the solid-solution strengthening effect of the GH3536 alloy; After aging treatment, a large amount of carbides precipitate at the grain boundaries, which enhanced the strength of the GH3536 alloy through the pinning effect and weakened the toughness. After solid solution and aging treatment, the tensile strength of GH3536 alloy increased to 840 MPa, and the elongation exceeded 39%, which were 22.90% and 9.7% higher than that of the as-deposited GH3536 alloy, respectively; During electrochemical corrosion, solid solution treatment and solution + aging treatment lead to more uniform microstructure, facilitating the formation of denser passivation films and enhancing corrosion resistance. …”
