Assessing the socio-economic impact of performing arts festivals: a new theoretical model

open access: yes, 2010
The impact of the Performing Arts Festival (PAF) is an ongoing field of research, currently facing several flush issues. Due to the fact that the topic spans different disciplines, little agreement subsists on the main definition and interpretation ...

Experimental Evaluation of 100Cr6 Steel Microindented Surfaces Under Lubricated Nonconformal Point Contacts

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The tribological behavior of 100Cr6 steel spheres textured via Vickers microindentation is evaluated under lubricated sliding by varying both dimple size and density. Fine and dense textures significantly reduce friction across all lubrication regimes, while large dimples increase it.

China’s BRI: Toward Common Prosperity or New Hegemony?

open access: yesChinese Journal of International Review
The Belt and Road Initiative (BRI) has been a subject of considerable debate since its inception. Existing assessments of BRI’s implementation have often concentrated on economic or political aspects in isolation, which does not provide a comprehensive ...

Electrochemical Evaluation of Compressed Selective Laser Melted AlSi7Mg and AlSi10Mg Alloys in Chloride Environment

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The corrosion performance of AlSi7Mg and AlSi10Mg alloys produced through selective laser melting (SLM) was examined under compressive stress in a chloride environment. Electrochemical analyses, including open‐circuit potential (OCP), potentiodynamic polarization (CPP), and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), were complemented by scanning ...

Refining urban typologies: causal insights into urban form, car commuting, and related CO2 emissions

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters
Urban transport is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions, making effective urban planning crucial for climate mitigation. Global typologies of cities can help to scale planning strategies, yet they hardly capture how interventions translate into ...

Innovative Processing of Compacted Waste Aluminum Alloy Powders via Controlled Remelting and Solidification

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study demonstrates an efficient recycling route for out‐of‐spec AlSi10Mg atomized powders through compaction and arc remelting followed by suction casting. By correlating compaction load, cooling rate, and resulting microstructure, we show that intermediate pressures (50–80 kN) and rapid cooling refine dendrites, reduce porosity, and enhance ...

Prediction of Surface Topography Parameters in Direct Laser Interference Patterning of Stainless Steel Using Infrared Monitoring and Convolutional Neural Networks

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study presents an infrared monitoring approach for direct laser interference patterning (DLIP) combined with a convolutional neural network (CNN). Thermal emission data captured during structuring are used to predict surface topography parameters.
