Modification of Aluminum 1050 and 2219 Alloys Using CuBr Nanosecond Laser for Hydrophobic and Hydrophilic Properties

This study investigates the use of a CuBr vapor nanosecond laser with a 510 nm/578.2 nm wavelength for the surface treatment of 1050 aluminum and 2219 aluminum Glass Markers alloys.Laser-induced periodic surface structuring was used to optimize processing parameters to achieve hydrophobic and hydrophilic properties on the surface.The wetting proper

The additional diagnostic benefits of performing both video-polysomnography and prolonged video-EEG-monitoring: When and why

Objective: Video-polysomnography (VPSG) and prolonged video-EEG-monitoring (pVEEG-M) are neurophysiological investigation modalities.Depending on indication either is performed, but occasionally patients undergo both (during the same or separate stays).We sought to assess the reasons and potential benefits of dual diagnostic assessments with both m
