Abstract: Flow softening and microstructural evolution of a novel metastable β titanium alloy Ti-3Al-5Mo-4Cr-2Zr-1Fe (Ti-35421) newly-developed with tensile strength beyond 1200 MPa have been investigated. Hot deformation was performed at temperatures of 710~800 ℃ in the α+β region with...

CVD (chemical vapor deposition) coatings such as TiC, TiN, Al2O3 and so on are widely used as tools' surface preserved materials with corrosion resistance and wear resistance. Standard Gibbs free energy changes for reactions are widely used to approximately analyze the trends of substance...

We survey the textual sentiment literature, comparing and contrasting the various information sources, content analysis methods, and empirical models that have been used to date. We summarize the important and influential findings about how textual sentiment impacts on individual, firm-level and...

Diamond-coated hard alloys are prospective tool materials for extreme cutting conditions. Nucleation rate is one of important factors that affect the qualities of diamond thin films on WC-Co alloys. However, theoretical reports on nucleation rate of diamond films on WC-Co alloys are scarce....

The surface temperature field model of hot filament chemical vapor deposition (HF CVD) diamond films on WC–Co alloys was constructed and calculated by taking into account the influences of both thermal source properties and physical properties of substrates. Under the certain conditions of...

The recent mania of Reddit darling GameStop raises questions about social media’s impact on the behaviours of institutional investors such as mutual funds. We examine whether and why mutual funds hold “sentimental” stocks that are heavily mentioned or with bullish views on social media....

This research investigates models for engaging private sector investors and developers in financing or delivering social and affordable housing, across different market segments and tenures in Australia and internationally. It also identifies key existing and potential players, and financial,...
