Determination of the short-range order structure of Au-25 At. Pct Fe using wide-angle diffuse synchrotron X-Ray scattering

The short-range order (SRO) structure of a Au-25 at. pct Fe single crystal was studied using wide-angle diffuse synchrotron X-radiation scattering at room temperature. Two heat treatments were investigated: a 400 °C aging treatment for 2 days and a 440 °C treatment for 5 days, both preceded by solution treatment in the single-phase field and water-quenched to room temperature. Evolution of the SRO structure with aging was determined by fitting the two sets of Cowley-Warren (C-W) SRO parameters to a pair of 140,608-atom models. The microstructures, although quite disordered, showed a trend with aging for an increasing volume fraction of an Fe-enriched and an Fe-depleted environment. The Fe-enriched environment displayed a preference for Fe segregation to the {110} and {100} face-centered cubic (fcc) matrix planes. A major portion of the Fe-depleted environment was found to contain elements (and variations of these elements) of the Dl_a ordered superstructure. The SRO contained in the Fe-depleted environment may be best described in terms of the standing concentration wave packet (SCWP) model. This study provides, for the first time, a quantitative real-space view of the atomic arrangements, which make up both environments in the SRO structure of Au-25 at. pct Fe.

Do chart reviews and interviews provide the same information about breast and cervical cancer screening?

Magnetic resonance imaging allows a noninvasive assessment of myelination during normal brain maturation as well as the detection of genetically determined and acquired diseases that affect the synthesis and maintenance of myelin. If this high sensitivity of magnetic resonance imaging for white matter changes is completed by adequate clinical and biochemical information, a unique diagnostic tool is available to gain new insights in the formation of myelin and pathogenesis of myelin disorders.     

Curvilinear fatigue crack reliability analysis by stochastic boundary element method

In this paper, the stochastic boundary element method, which combines the mixed boundary integral equations method explored in Reference 1 with the first-order reliability method, is developed to study probabilistic fatigue crack growth. Due to the high degree of complexity and non-linearity of the response, direct differentiation coupied with the response-surface method is employed to determine the response gradient. Three random processes, the mode I and mode II. stress intensity factors and the crack direction angle, are included in the expression of the response gradient. The sensitivity of these random processes is determined using a first-order response model. An iteration scheme based on the HL-RF method² is applied to locate the most probable failure point on the limit-state surface. The accuracy and efficiency of the stochastic boundary element method are evaluated by comparing the cumulative distribution function of the fatigue life obtained with Monte Carlo simulation. The reliability index and the corresponding probability of failure are calculated for a fatigue crack growth problem with randomness in the crack geometry, defect geometry, fatigue parameters and external loads. The response sensitivity of each primary random variable at the design point is determined to show its role in the fatigue failure. The variation of each primary random variable at the design point with the change of probability of failure is also presented in numerical examples.     

Theoretical foundation of the 80/20 rule

A rigorous analysis of the 80/20 rule is made using an index for the observed values of the variables. Three important findings are identified. First, a sufficient condition is provided for Burrell's inverse relationship between minimum holdings and average circulation rate. Second, an indexed version of Lotka's law is used to derive a sufficient condition for Egghe's finding on the 80/20 rule. Third, through the computer simulations of the Simon-Yule model of Lotka's law, we identify the entry rate of new holdings as well as the number of circulations when the entry rate is a decreasing function to be crucial factors for the pattern of the 80/20-type curve.
