Study of the microstructure, tensile properties and hardness of AZ61 magnesium alloy subjected to severe plastic deformation [PDF]
Hot extruded (EX) AZ61 magnesium alloy was processed by the twist channel angular pressing (TCAP) method, which combines equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) and twist extrusion (TE) processes and significantly improves the efficiency of the grain ...

Long‐Term Cochlear Implant Sensitivity in Patients With Far Advanced Otosclerosis
This study aimed to evaluate mid‐ and long‐term cochlear implant fitting in otosclerosis patients compared to a control group. It suggested significant tissue remodeling at the cochlear apex in otosclerosis patients, likely increasing resistance to electrical currents delivered by the implant.

Optimizing CI Systems for Better Recognition of Soft Speech —the Concept of Broad‐Range Mapping
ABSTRACT Objectives The individual mapping of cochlear implants (CIs) aims to optimize the user's speech understanding. Recent investigations have shown the importance of soft speech: (1) According to Datalog studies, a large proportion of speech components lies in the range below 60 dB, and (2) soft speech represents a separate category in CI outcome,

SIMULATING OZONE EFFECTS ON FOREST PRODUCTIVITY: INTERACTIONS AMONG LEAF‐, CANOPY‐, AND STAND‐LEVEL PROCESSES [PDF]
Ozone pollution in the lower atmosphere is known to have adverse effects on forest vegetation, but the degree to which mature forests are impacted has been very difficult to assess directly.

An overview of the EXTraS project: Exploring the X-ray Transient and Variable Sky
The EXTraS project (Exploring the X-ray Transient and variable Sky) will harvest the hitherto unexplored temporal domain information buried in the serendipitous data collected by the European Photon Imaging Camera (EPIC) instrument onboard the ESA XMM ...

A New Contact Algorithm for the Total‐Lagrangian Material Point Method
ABSTRACT The Total Lagrangian Material Point Method (TLMPM) is a relatively new variant of the now popular MPM, a method to solve partial differential equations appearing in solid and fluid mechanics problems. In TLMPM, each solid has its own grid, and all calculations are carried out in a configuration of reference, often the original configuration ...

Joining UFG Copper by Means of the W2Mi Machine [PDF]
Joining metals with ultra-fine grains (UFG) is very difficult. UFG metals have a grain size of less than 1 µm. Exceeding the recrystallization temperature causes the growth of ultra-fine grains and degradation of the material’s mechanical properties. The

Development of Combined Opto-Acoustical Sensor Modules
The faint fluxes of cosmic neutrinos expected at very high energies require large instrumented detector volumes. The necessary volumes in combination with a sufficient shielding against background constitute forbidding and complex environments (e.g.

Modelling microstructure evolution during equal channel angular pressing of magnesium alloys using cellular automata finite element method [PDF]
Equal channel angular pressing (ECAP) is one of the most popular methods of obtaining ultrafine grained (UFG) metals. However, only relatively short billets can be processed by ECAP due to force limitation.
