The welding of titanium alloys is an important topic in today's industrial field, and the interaction between the solder and the base material is crucial for the quality of the welded parts. The structural, elastic, electronic, and thermal properties of Ti-Al-Me (Me = Cu, Fe and Ni) alloys (TAMs) with the face-centered cubic structures were investigated using plane-wave pseudo potential method in the framework of density functional theory. Based on the calculated elastic constants combined with empirical and semi-empirical formulas, physical properties including ductility/brittleness, hardness and anisotropy were calculated.

The application of nanocomposites based on polyacrylamide hydrogels as well as silica nanoparticles in various tasks related to the petroleum industry has been rapidly developing in the last 10-15 years. Analysis of the literature has shown that the introduction of nanoparticles into hydrogels significantly increases their structural and mechanical characteristics and improves their thermal stability. Nanocomposites based on hydrogels are used in different technological processes of oil production: for conformance control, water shutoff in production wells, and well killing with loss circulation control.

We report a scalable method based on continuous-flow reactors for conformally coating the surfaces of facet-controlled Pd nanocrystals with uniform, ultrathin shells made of Pt. The key to the success of such an approach is the identification of a proper polyol to generate the Pt atoms at a relatively slow rate to ensure adequate surface diffusion and thus the formation of uniform shells in a layer-by-layer fashion. We first demonstrate the concept using the production of Pd@Pt (n = 2-5) core-shell icosahedral nanocrystals and then have the strategy successfully extended to the syntheses of Pd@Pt cubic and octahedral nanocrystals.

Article Synopsis
- The study examines the relationship between complete blood cell count (CBC)-derived inflammatory biomarkers and frailty in U.S. adults aged 50 and older.
- Elevated levels of inflammatory markers like the neutrophil-to-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) and monocyte-to-lymphocyte ratio (MLR) are significantly associated with a higher frailty index, indicating a greater risk of adverse health outcomes.
- The findings suggest that these easily accessible biomarkers could be useful as indicators for identifying the development of frailty in older adults.
The LET enhancement of energy-specific collimation in pencil beam scanning proton therapy.

Department of Radiation Oncology, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa, USA.
Purpose: To computationally characterize the LET distribution during dynamic collimation in PBS and quantify its impact on the resultant dose distribution.
Methods: Monte Carlo simulations using Geant4 were used to model the production of low-energy proton scatter produced in the collimating components of a novel PBS collimator. Custom spectral tallies were created to quantify the energy, track- and dose-averaged LET resulting from individual beamlet and composite fields simulated from a model of the IBA dedicated nozzle system.
