Partially-degradable biomaterials refers to smart implants where biodegradable metals can gradually be replaced by newly growing bone or living tissues, and leave behind a porous inert metal skeleton that stably binds with the new bone tissue. In this research, a partially degradable composite was designed by integrating Ti-Zr-Cu-Pd-Sn metallic glass (MG) with designed Fe-Mg alloy using spark plasma sintering (SPS). The mechanical alloying technique successfully enabled the fusion of immiscible Fe and Mg, addressing the issues of Fe's slow degradation and Mg's rapid breakdown, while also minimizing potential fractures in the metal framework due to hydrogen gas evolution. The controlled degradation of Mg(Fe) promotes the formation of Ca-P compounds, enhancing the bioactivity of the Fe-Mg composite. This design endows the composite with plastic and ductile deformation under compression, providing a viable solution to the brittle fracture behaviour commonly associated with conventional bulk metallic glasses (BMGs). This advancement holds promise for aligning with the natural growth rate of human bone, further augmenting the bioactive properties and practical applications of the MG/Fe-Mg composite material. Statement of significance: In this research, a partially degradable composite was designed by integrating Ti-Zr-Cu-Pd-Sn metallic glass (MG) with designed Fe-Mg alloy using SPS. The Fe-Mg alloy act as temporary space holders can gradually being replaced by newly formed bone, thus establishing a dynamic equilibrium between the biodegradation of the bio-metals and the inward growth of new bone. The degradation of Mg(Fe) promotes the formation of Ca-P compounds, enhancing the bioactivity of the composite. This design endows the composite with plastic deformation under compression, providing a viable solution to the brittle fracture behavior of conventional MGs. This advancement holds promise for aligning with the natural growth rate of human bone, further augmenting the

Millimeter-wave network deployment is an essential and ongoing problem due to the limited coverage and expensive network infrastructure. In this work, we solve a joint network deployment and resource allocation optimization problem for a mmWave cell-free massive MIMO network considering indoor environments. The objective is to minimize the number of deployed access points (APs) for a given environment, bandwidth, AP cooperation, and precoding scheme while guaranteeing the rate requirements of the user equipments (UEs). Considering coherent joint transmission (C-JT) and non-coherent joint transmission (NC-JT), we solve the problem of AP placement, UE-AP association, and power allocation among the UEs and resource blocks jointly. For numerical analysis, we model a mid-sized airplane cabin in ray-tracing as an exemplary case for IDS. Results demonstrate that a minimum data rate of 1 Gbps can be guaranteed with less than 10 APs with C-JT. From a holistic network design perspective, we analyze the trade-off between the required fronthaul capacity and the processing capacity per AP, under different network functional split options. We observe an above 600 Gbps fronthaul rate requirement, once all network operations are centralized, which can be reduced to 200 Gbps under physical layer functional splits. 2002-2012 IEEE.

Creep aging forming(CAF) is a potential process used to manufacture large integral components of magnesium(Mg) alloys. The selected stress plays a crucial role in creep aging processes but the mechanism by which stress loading method affects creep aging of Mg alloys is still unclear. In this paper, the microstructural evolution of precipitated phases and precipitation-free zones(PFZ) at grain boundaries with different stress loading modes(unstressed, unidirectional tensile stress, and cyclic stress) at 250 ℃ were investigated along with changes in mechanical properties. The results showed that the addition of stress during aging effectively promoted the precipitation of precipitated phases, while unaffecting grain size. Unidirectional tensile stress caused directional growth of β phase([1010]), as well as rotation of weave towards the basal plane texture, resulting in namely stress orientation effect. Solute atoms diffused in the direction of tensile stress while vacancies moved perpendicular to the direction of tensile stress, resulting in PFZ at grain boundaries(157.06 nm). By contrast, cyclic stresses led to the growth of β phase in three directions([1010], [1100] and [0110]). The solute atoms and vacancies were uniformly distributed in the Mg matrix instead of directional diffusion, effectively reducing the width of PFZ(112.39 nm) at the grain boundary. These features significantly improved the mechanical properties of alloy specimens after cyclic stress creep aging when compared to unidirectional stress creep aging, with yield strength(YS), ultimate tensile strength(UTS), and elongation(EL) enhanced from 171.6 MPa, 305.5 MPa, and 4.4%to 174.8 MPa, 326.3 MPa, and 6.9%, respectively.
