Sample-Adjusted Threshold Calculation (SATC) for Optimizing Flood Mapping From a Trustworthy and Explainable Perspective by Zhijun Jiao, Biyan Chen, Zhimei Zhang, Lixin Wu

“…However, in cross-regional flood monitoring, challenges in accurately detecting floodwater pixels arise from interference factors affecting SAR backscatter, which are inherently present in various geo-environments (e.g., wind waves, vegetation, thick clouds, and high-relief terrain). …”

Factorial-experimental investigation of LPBF regimes for VZh159 nickel superalloy grain structure and structural strength optimization by Rustam R. Kyarimov, Eugene S. Statnik, Eugene S. Statnik, Iuliia A. Sadykova, Alexander A. Frantsuzov, Alexey I. Salimon, Alexey I. Salimon, Alexander M. Korsunsky, Alexander M. Korsunsky, Alexander M. Korsunsky

“…Metallurgically sound samples (based on hydrostatic weighing data and microscopy, with practically no pores detected) were obtained with nine combinations of power and scanning speed, showing significant variation in the tensile strength (in the 1,040–1,220 MPa range) and yield strength (in the 560–1,100 MPa range), which correlated with the cross-sectional area of the single scan line (for example, the depth of the melt pool varied in the range 410–530 µm), while the average grain size (deduced from Electron Backscatter Diffraction (EBSD) images) remained statistically unchanged. …”
