Article Abstract
Laser shock peening is a promising surface strengthening technology that can effectively improve the mechanical properties of materials. This paper is based on the laser shock peening process for HC420LA low-alloy high-strength steel weldments. Contrast analysis of the evolution of the microstructure, residual stress distribution and mechanical properties of the welded joints before and after the laser shock peening on each region is carried out; a combination of tensile fracture and impact toughness fracture morphology analyses of laser shock peening on the welded joint strength and toughness regulation mechanism are also completed. The results show that the laser shock peening can refine the microstructure of the welded joint effectively, the microhardness of all areas of the joint increases and the weld residual tensile stresses are transformed into beneficial residual compressive stresses, affecting a layer depth of 600 μm. In addition, the strength and impact toughness of welded joints of HC420LA low-alloy high-strength steel are improved.

The designability of Laser powder bed fusion (LPBF) technology for material microstructure enables the fabrication of high-performance additive manufactured (AM) components. However, challenges remain due to inevitable pores induced by laser shock and parameter fluctuations during manufacturing, which introduce uncertainties in both porosity and microstructures. In this work, ultrasonic bulk wave is employed to evaluate porosity within the context of coupled pore-microstructure effects.

Sepsis is a time-critical condition causing over 13 million deaths annually, with each hour of treatment delay in patients with septic shock increasing mortality by 8%. Rapid pathogen identification is crucial, yet current workflows depend on multiple culture steps that delay pathogen identification and targeted treatment by days. A plug-and-play, fully automated centrifuge tube is presented that isolates and concentrates bacteria directly from blood or blood culture using only conventional lab centrifuges.

The thermal decomposition of isopropanol was studied experimentally and theoretically with a view to isolate and directly measure rate coefficients for the dominant radical channel in this multi-channel process. Two complementary shock tube methods, laser schlieren densitomtery and H-atom atomic resonance absorption spectroscopy, were used to obtain rate coefficents for the C-C bond fission channel. The experimental ranges span temperatures from 1200-2100 K and pressures between 30-690 torr.

Aerospace engines and hypersonic vehicles, among other high-temperature components, often operate in environments characterized by temperatures exceeding 1000 °C and high-speed airflow impacts, resulting in severe thermal erosion conditions. Coaxial thermocouples (CTs), with their unique self-eroding characteristic, are particularly well suited for use in such extreme environments. However, fabricating high-temperature electrical insulation layers for coaxial thermocouples remains challenging.

Neuronal interactions between inhibitory and excitatory neurons play a pivotal role in regulating the balance of excitation and inhibition in the central nervous system (CNS). Consequently, the efficacy of inhibitory/excitatory synapses profoundly affects neural network processing and overall neuronal functions. Here, we describe a novel form of long-term potentiation (LTP) induced at cortical inhibitory synapses and its behavioral consequences.
