Enhanced comprehensive performance via alloying and rheo-diecasting in a semi-solid Al–Si–Fe–Mg–Cu–Sr alloy

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2023
A semi-solid Al alloy with superior comprehensive performance was obtained via alloying design concept and rheo-diecasting (RDC). The semi-solid alloy slurry was obtained via the vibrating contraction sloping plate.

Tumour–host interactions in Drosophila: mechanisms in the tumour micro‐ and macroenvironment

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
This review examines how tumour–host crosstalk takes place at multiple levels of biological organisation, from local cell competition and immune crosstalk to organism‐wide metabolic and physiological collapse. Here, we integrate findings from Drosophila melanogaster studies that reveal conserved mechanisms through which tumours hijack host systems to ...

Solidification behavior and enhanced properties of semi-solid Al–8Si–0.5Fe alloys fabricated by rheo-diecasting

Journal of Materials Research and Technology, 2022
Compared with the high pressure diecasting, rheo-diecasting has an advantage in decreasing defects, refining microstructure and improving properties. In the present work, an Al–8Si–0.5Fe alloy with a good combination of mechanical property and thermal ...

Study on adhesion mechanism of fouling organisms on marine steel surface based on inverted microscope [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
Marine stainless steel is immersed in seawater for a long time, and its surface will inevitably adhere layer by layer to form biofilm, which will lead to microbial corrosion of the material.
