Time of flight diffraction testing of austenitic stainless steel weldments at elevated temperatures
Ultrasonic testing is a mandatory requirement during inservice inspection of the welds in the main and safety vessels of a prototype fast breeder reactor. Presently, conventional ultrasonic techniques have been proposed for use.

Asymmetry in Skipping Enhances Viability Against Control Input Noise
Quadruped animals use asymmetric galloping gaits at high speeds, yet the functional role of this asymmetry remains unclear. This study shows that left–right asymmetry in touchdown angles enhances robustness to control noise. Using a simple two‐legged locomotion model and viability theory, it demonstrates that asymmetric skipping substantially enlarges ...
