NbTi foil thermally controlled switches for superconducting converters with operation frequency up to 50 Hz. Part 1: Experiment [PDF]
The increase of the operation frequency of superconducting converters up to 50 Hz opens new ways to improve their parameters. Thermally controlled switches using NbTi foil are able to operate at industrial frequency with reasonable efficiency and dynamic

Nonstationary Bandits with Habituation and Recovery Dynamics [PDF]
In many sequential decision-making settings where there is uncertainty about the reward of each action, frequent selection of specific actions may reduce expected reward while choosing less frequently selected actions could lead to an increase. These effects are commonly observed in settings ranging from personalized healthcare interventions and ...

Hot Deformation Behavior and Microstructure Evolution of High-Strength Al-Zn-Mg-Cu Alloy
An isothermal compression experiment was conducted to study the rheological behavior of Al-4.57Zn-1.50Mg-1.92Cu high-strength aluminum alloy at strain rates ranging from 0.1 to 20 s−1 and temperatures in the range of 573 to 773 K.

Catastrophic dynamics limit Atlantic cod recovery [PDF]
Collapses and regime changes are pervasive in complex systems (such as marine ecosystems) governed by multiple stressors. The demise of Atlantic cod ( Gadus morhua ) stocks constitutes a text book example of the consequences of overexploiting marine living resources, yet the drivers of these nearly synchronous ...

Dynamic Social Networks in Recovery Homes [PDF]
AbstractAcute treatment aftercare in the form of sober living environments—i.e., recovery houses—provide an inexpensive and effective medium‐term treatment alternative for many with substance use disorders. Limited evidence suggests that house‐situated social relationships and associated social support are critical determinants of how successful these ...

Disturbance–recovery dynamics inform seafloor management for recovery
Over most of the world’s estuaries, coasts, and continental shelves, key indicators of seafloor biodiversity, anthropogenic stress, and ecological sustainability emphasize the need to shift habitat management and conservation from prevention of degradation to actions focused on ecological recovery.

Microstructure Evolution Behavior of Spray-Deposited 7055 Aluminum Alloy during Hot Deformation
The evolution behaviors of the second phase, substructure and grain of the spray-deposited 7055 aluminum alloy during hot compression at 300~470 °C were studied by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), electron backscatter diffraction (EBSD) and ...
