Effects of elastic anisotropy on the small fatigue crack deflection behavior of α-brass by Jinta Arakawa, Ryushin Kamada, Ryo Yabuki, Yuki Ogawa, Hiroyuki Akebono, Atsushi Sugeta

“…In this study, we conducted tests using an electrodynamic plane bending fatigue testing machine to closely observe the propagation behavior of a small fatigue crack generated on the surface of α-brass. We also employed the electron backscatter deflection (EBSD) method to analyze the crystal orientation near the bottom of the notch on the surface of the test piece. …”

Direct imaging of exoplanets: Legacy and prospects by Chauvin, Gael

“…From the astrophysical point of view, it is indeed crucial to understand the mechanisms of formation and evolution of giant planets, including planet and disk interactions, which will completely sculpt the planetary architectures and thus dominate the formation of terrestrial planets, especially in regions around the host star capable of supporting life. It is also important to develop dedicated instrumentation and techniques to study in their totality the population of giant and terrestrial planets, but also to reveal in the near future the first biological markers of life in the atmospheres of terrestrial planets. …”

Archibald Henry Sayce (1845–1933) and the Transition from 19th-Century Comparative Philology to 20th-Century General Linguistics by Subbiondo Joseph L., Kilarski Marcin

“…While Ferdinand de Saussure (1857–1913) is recognized as a leading founder of general linguistics, other linguists also moved the discipline in this direction. We focus on Archibald Henry Sayce’s (1845–1933) Principles of Comparative Philology (1893) because it anticipated general linguistics, and because the book and its author have been overlooked despite their relevance to the history of linguistics. …”
