Microstructure Tailoring of Laser Powder Bed Fused Nb521 Alloy Toward Strength‐Ductility Synergy
ABSTRACT Niobium‐based refractory alloys are promising candidates for high‐temperature aerospace structures, yet their limited ambient‐temperature ductility and poor processability remain major barriers to broader implementation. Here, Nb521 alloy was fabricated by laser powder bed fusion (LPBF), and the effects of processing conditions and subsequent ...

A “Tech First” Approach to Foreign Policy? The Three Meanings of Tech Diplomacy
ABSTRACT Scholars have recently argued that international politics is plagued by instability as the world rapidly transitions from one crisis to another. This state of “Permacrisis,” or permanent crises between states, is driven by technological innovations which create new kinds of crises and drive competitions between adversarial states.
