Mechanical alloying (MA) has been utilized to synthesize many equilibrium and/or nonequilibrium phases. During the MA process, alloys are formed by the solid-state reaction. Solid solution has been obtained by MA, strain occurs due to the dissolution one component in the binary system. An...

A theory is developed for incorporating prior probabilities into multiple hypotheses testing. Its potential aaplications are illustrated. It is shown that the theory is particularly useful when one wishes to incorporate partial prior information in testing a parameter of interest in the presence...
