  2. Superalloy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superalloy

    Gamma prime (γ'): This phase constitutes the precipitate used to strengthen the alloy. It is an intermetallic phase based on Ni 3 (Ti,Al) which have an ordered FCC L1 2 structure. [ 10 ] The γ' phase is coherent with the matrix of the superalloy having a lattice parameter that varies by around 0.5%.

  3. Nickel aluminide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nickel_aluminide

    In these alloys the volume fraction of the γ' precipitates is as high as 80%. [7] Because of this high volume fraction, the evolution of these γ' precipitates during the alloys' life cycles is important: a major concern is the coarsening of these γ' precipitates at high temperature (800 to 1000 °C), which greatly reduces the alloys ...

  4. Evolution of ageing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evolution_of_ageing

    Evolution is the change in a heritable trait in a population across generations since mutations generate variations in the heritable traits; they are considered the raw material for evolution. Therefore, beneficial mutation accumulations during the developmental processes could generate more phenotypic variations, which increases their gene ...

  5. Adult development - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adult_development

    In just 60 years that total has grown to over 35 million people. This rise in population and life expectancy had shined a light on the manifestation of development throughout adulthood. [12] Changes in adulthood have been described by several theories and metatheories, which serve as a framework for adult development research.

  6. Gas turbine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas_turbine

    The gamma (γ) FCC nickel is alloyed with aluminum and titanium in order to precipitate a uniform dispersion of the coherent Ni 3 (Al,Ti) gamma-prime (γ') phases. The finely dispersed γ' precipitates impede dislocation motion and introduce a threshold stress, increasing the stress required for the onset of creep.

  7. Emerging adulthood and early adulthood - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Emerging_adulthood_and...

    In contrast to those in poor or rural parts of developing nations, who have no emerging adulthood and sometimes no adolescence due to comparatively early entry into marriage and adult-like work, young people in wealthier urban classes have begun to enter stages of development that resemble emerging adulthood, and the amount to do so is rising ...

  8. Timeline of the evolutionary history of life - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_the...

    Beginning of animal evolution. [54] [55] 720–630 Ma Possible global glaciation [56] [57] which increased the atmospheric oxygen and decreased carbon dioxide, and was either caused by land plant evolution [58] or resulted in it. [59] Opinion is divided on whether it increased or decreased biodiversity or the rate of evolution. [60] [61] [62 ...

  9. Timeline of human evolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Timeline_of_human_evolution

    The evolution of eukaryotes, and possibly sex, is thought to be related to the GOE, as it probably pressured two or three lineages of prokaryotes (including an aerobe one, which later became mitochondria) to depend on each other, leading to endosymbiosis. Early eukaryotes lost their cell walls and outer membranes.
