EFFECT OF LASER INTENSITY PROFILE ON THE MICROSTRUCTURE AND TEXTURE OF INCONEL 718 SUPERALLOY FABRICATED BY DIRECT ENERGY DEPOSITION

Effect of laser intensity profile on the microstructure and texture of Inconel 718 superalloy fabricated by direct energy deposition

Epitaxial growth of dendrites often results in a strong texture, which is a common phenomenon in a laser additive manufacturing process.In this study, pulsed lasers with flat-top and Gaussian Weight Management intensity profiles were used to modulate the molten pool morphology and the solidification texture with a unidirectional scanning strategy.T

Experimental Implementation of Power-Split Control Strategies in a Versatile Hardware-in-the-Loop Laboratory Test Bench for Hybrid Electric Vehicles Equipped with Electrical Variable Transmission

The energy management strategy (EMS) or power management strategy (PMS) unit is the core of power sharing control in the hybridization of automotive drivetrains in hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs).Once a new topology and its corresponding EMS are virtually designed, they require undertaking different stages of experimental verifications toward guara

Involvement of Salicylate and Jasmonate Signaling Pathways in Arabidopsis Interaction with Fusarium graminearum

Fusarium graminearum is the principal causative agent of Fusarium head blight (FHB), a devastating disease of wheat and barley.This fungus can also colonize Arabidopsis thaliana.Disease resistance was enhanced in transgenic wheat and Arabidopsis plants that constitutively overexpress the NONEXPRESSOR OF PATHOGENESIS-RELATED GENES 1 (NPR1) gene, whi

Exploring genome-wide differentiation and signatures of selection in Italian and North American Holstein populations

ABSTRACT: Among Italian dairy cattle, the Holstein is the most reared breed for the production of Parmigiano Reggiano protected designation of origin cheese, which represents one of the most renowned products in the entire Italian dairy industry.In this work, we used a medium-density genome-wide data set consisting of 79,464 imputed SNPs to study t
