Al–20Sn–1Cu self-lubricating alloy: Correlations between microstructure coarsening, mechanical, and application properties by Sarah De Albuquerque, Vinicius Leme Andrade, Rodrigo V. Reyes, Guillaume Reinhart, Danielle Cristina Camilo Magalhães, Henri Nguyen-Thi, José Eduardo Spinelli

“…However, those alloys exhibit peculiar behaviors contrary to the classical Archard equation, which relates hardness to wear resistance, or to the typical behavior of metallic alloys, where increasing strength generally leads to a reduction in ductility. This can be attributed to the morphology, fraction and distribution of the β-Sn phase, a component of low hardness and strength but essential for self-lubricating functionality. …”

Amplification of Higher-Order Salivary Gland Volume Effects from External Beam Radiotherapy in Normal Tissue Complication Probability Modeling of Radiopharmaceutical Therapy by Chunming Gu, Robert F. Hobbs, Ana P. Kiess, Junghoon Lee, Todd McNutt, Harry Quon, Zhuoyao Xin, Tahir I. Yusufaly

“…In EBRT, salivary glands are usually assumed to be parallel organs, with QUANTEC guidelines based on <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><msub><mi>D</mi><mrow><mi>m</mi><mi>e</mi><mi>a</mi><mi>n</mi></mrow></msub></semantics></math></inline-formula>, but this is known to be a gross over-simplification of the full complexity of the underlying functional organization. The goal of this work is to combine machine learning of EBRT dose–outcome data with stylized small-scale RPT dosimetry to discover more reliable normal tissue complication probability (NTCP) models of xerostomia across both modalities. …”
