Mechanical damping by intercrystalline diffusion of hydrogen in metallic polycrystals.

Anelastic relaxation by intercrystalline atomic diffusion-analogous to thermal diffusion (i.e., thermoelastic) effects but never observed hitherto-was recently suggested as a new mechanism to explain part of the hydrogen damping spectra in intermetallic compounds.

Angiosarcoma of the axillary vein.

Angiosarcoma is a malignant tumor of vascular origin. Malignant primary vein tumors are rare. The case of a 64-year-old patient who underwent a left forequarter amputation for angiosarcoma arising from the left axillary vein, a site not previously described, is presented.
