Physical conditions for UO formation in laser-produced uranium plumes

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics, 21(29), 16161–16169.

TL;DR: It is highlighted that oxidation in U plasmas predominantly occurs at the cooler periphery and is delayed with respect to plasma formation, and the dissipation of molecular species strongly depends on oxygen partial pressure. (via Semantic Scholar)

Image driven machine learning methods for microstructure recognition

Computational Materials Science, 123, 176–187.

author keywords: Microstructure; Computer vision; Machine learning; Classification; Convolutional neural networks; Micrograph
TL;DR: Results demonstrate that pre-trained neural networks represent microstructure image data well, and when used for feature extraction yield the highest classification accuracies for the majority of classifier and feature selection methods tested, suggesting that deep learning algorithms can successfully be applied to micrograph recognition tasks.
