Development of SiC Nanocomposites Using Direct Ink Writing Process

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Herein, feedstock inks containing polycarbosilane and various concentrations of SiC nanoparticles (SiCnp) are investigated for fabricating ceramic matrix composites using a DIW 3D printing process. Characterization results from physical measurement, microstructure analysis, and thermal and flexural testing suggested that high‐performance CMC samples ...

Linking Heat Treatment to Plastic Deformation in Pearlitic Steels Through Mesoscale Modeling

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Surface wear on rail and wheel steels results from surface deformation during use. This research uses mathematical models to forecast the plastic behavior of pearlitic steels, connected to the microstructure formed during heat treatment. While the cooling rate impacts the steels’ strength, the size of prior austenite grains and blocks does not ...

Formation of Intermetallic Sludge Phases in AlMgSi Alloys with High Concentrations of Alloying Elements: A Drawback for Increasing Sustainability

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Sludge phases with brittle fracture behavior form in AlMgSi alloys with high concentrations of alloying elements and negatively influence their ductility. The phase type mainly depends on the Si content and the concentration of minor alloying elements like Fe, Mn, Cr, and Mo strongly influences the number of sludge particles. The need for sustainable

Production of Metallic Foam Precursors Using Current‐Activated Pressure‐Assisted Densification

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A powder compaction metallurgical method, known as current‐activated pressure‐assisted densification, is applied to enhance the compaction of metal foam precursors. This method improves precursor quality by achieving higher density, lower electrical resistivity, and more uniform pore nucleation in the resulting foams, reducing energy consumption and ...

Exploring Dipolar Dynamics and Ionic Transport in Metal‐Organic Frameworks: Experimental and Theoretical Insights

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In this study, the interplay of dipolar dynamics and ionic charge transport in MOF compounds is investigated. Synthesizing the novel structure CFA‐25 with integrated freely rotating dipolar groups, local and macroscopic effects, including interactions with Cs cations are explored.

Standardized Uptake Value Illuminates Tumor Inflammation and Treatment Response

Clinical Cancer Research, 2021
Abstract Maximum standardized uptake value (SUVmax) on PET imaging is prognostic in cervical cancer. It was recently demonstrated that low pretreatment SUVmax is associated with superior prognosis and is correlated with decreased inflammatory signaling and myeloid-derived cell infiltration into the tumor microenvironment, potentially ...

Prognostic Value of the Standardized Uptake Value in Esophageal Cancer

American Journal of Roentgenology, 2005
On PET, the level of tissue glycolysis can be quantified by the accumulation of fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose expressed as the standardized uptake value (SUV). The aims of this study were to investigate the relation between SUV and the stage of disease and whether SUV can be used to predict resectability and survival in patients with esophageal cancer.

How High Can the Standardized Uptake Value Be?

Clinical Nuclear Medicine, 2002
Positron emission tomography using the glucose analog fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG PET) provides a unique means for the in vivo noninvasive assessment of metabolism in tumors and other disorders. A high degree of increased metabolism in a lesion is often suggestive of malignancy in the appropriate clinical setting, whereas low levels of FDG ...

Image reconstruction, quantification and standard uptake value [PDF]

open access: possible, 2000
One of the important characteristics of positron emission tomography (PET) is the ability to quantify metabolic function in vivo. To achieve this goal, radioactivity data (activity per volume) measured by PET is transformed into metabolic parameters of interest by using the simultaneously measured radioactivity in blood and an appropriate physiological
