Comparing the effectiveness of prostate cancer screening protocols: European Association of Urology– and European Randomized Study of Screening for Prostate Cancer–based strategies

open access: yesInternational Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
What's New? Although screening reduces prostate cancer mortality, concerns about overdiagnosis and unnecessary biopsies have given rise to more tailored strategies. The European Association of Urology (EAU) proposed a risk‐adapted screening strategy combining prostate‐specific antigen (PSA)‐based intervals, a risk calculator, and magnetic resonance ...

Effect of Heat Treatment Parameters on Microstructure, Hardness, and Corrosion Resistance of Martensitic Stainless Steel X30Cr13 (AISI 420B)

open access: yesMaterials and Corrosion, EarlyView.
The hardness and corrosion resistance of the martensitic stainless steel X30Cr13 depend directly on the applied heat treatment. This article describes and discusses the relationships between alloy composition, thermodynamic phase stabilities, heat treatment parameters, resulting microstructures, and achievable corrosion resistance. To investigate these

Exploring the Tribological Properties of 3D Printed Polymer Composites: An Experimental Study

open access: yesPolymer Composites, EarlyView.
Tribological pin‐on‐disc testing of FDM‐manufactured pins. Pins made from PLA, TPU, bronze‐filled PLA (BRO), and their combinations were tested against a SAE 1020 steel disc to evaluate friction, wear, and surface morphology. ABSTRACT In recent years, additive manufacturing, especially 3D printing, has been gaining more space in the production of parts

Investigating the Performance of Polytetrafluoroethylene and Polyoxymethylene Creasing Rules in the Package Conversion of Coated Paperboard

open access: yesPackaging Technology and Science, EarlyView.
Two sets of creasing tools were designed and machined from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and polyoxymethylene (POM) in this study to improve the creasability of commercial dispersion‐coated paperboard. Their performance was evaluated by measuring the oil and grease resistance of the samples before and after creasing/folding and comparing the results ...
