This study explores the gamma-ray and neutron transmission properties of β-Titanium alloys pivotal for their performance in nuclear and biomedical applications. Utilizing the Monte Carlo N-Particle (MCNP 6.3) simulations, we analyzed a spectrum of Ti-based alloys modified with elements like molybdenum (Mo), zirconium (Zr), niobium (Nb), and hafnium (Hf) to determine their radiation attenuation properties. Key parameters such as mass and linear attenuation coefficients, half-value layers, exposure buildup factors, and fast neutron effective removal cross-section values were computed, revealing significant enhancements in attenuation with the addition of high-Z elements. Specifically, alloys like Ti50Hf50 and (TiZr)40Cu60 exhibited superior photon and fast neutron attenuation due to their high-Z constituents. For instance, Ti50Hf50 showed a mass attenuation coefficient of 0.217 cm2/g and a half-value layer of 2.97-cm at 0.1 MeV photon energy, while (TiZr)40Cu60 demonstrated similar performance with a mass attenuation coefficient of 0.198 cm2/g and a half-value layer of 3.26-cm. These alloys also exhibited effective neutron removal cross-section values of 0.115 cm-1 and 0.130 cm-1, respectively. Alloys with lower-Z elements showed less attenuation, which may be beneficial in scenarios requiring reduced radiographic contrast in biomedical applications. The MCNP outcomes were in strong agreement with standard data, affirming the accuracy of computational methods in predicting material behavior. In conclusion, tailored alloy development is crucial for improving radiation shielding and diagnostic visualization, with broader implications for patient safety and treatment efficacy.

Ekinci, Firat; Firat, Erhan; Özkan, Göktürk M.; Akilli, Hüseyin; Dancova, P.
In this study, the flow behind a circular cylinder with a pair of outer identical guiding plates was investigated using particle image velocimetry (PIV) for various angular positions of the plates (i.e. α=±70°, ±100°, and ±130°). The gaps between these plates and cylinder are equal and are 0.3D. Experiments were carried out at a subcritical Reynolds (Re=ρ·U∞·D/μ) number of 7500, based on the cylinder diameter (D) and the flow velocity (U∞). The features of the near-wake with and without the guiding plates were interpreted in terms of patterns of time-averaged vorticity and streamlines, time-averaged and fluctuating velocity components. The spectral analysis was also carried out to determine the time-dependent variation of the transverse velocity at given locations in the near-wake. Two-dimensional computations of flow around circular cylinders with and without guiding plates have also been performed to predict the timeaveraged and root-mean-square of force coefficients of the various models. It was seen that the guiding plates at an appropriate angular position can lead to substantial attenuation, or retardation, of the process of large-scale vortex formation in the near-wake, thus can lead to vortex-induced vibration (VIV) suppression without any increase in drag.

We studied the presence of possible Aphanomyces astaci infections in eight Turkish narrow-clawed crayfish (Astacus leptodactylus) populations by analyzing the prevalence and genotypes of the disease agent A. astaci. The qPCR analyses revealed A. astaci infection in seven of the studied eight populations, with the agent level A2 or higher. The agent levels among the infected populations varied from A0 to A5, i.e., from negative to high level of infection, based on qPCR ranking. Based on the sequencing of the chitinase gene and the mitochondrial ribosomal rnnS and rnnL subunits, we detected both A (As) and B (PsI) haplogroups of A. astaci in our samples, with each of the studied populations being carriers of only one haplotype. The results confirm previous detections of A. astaci in Turkish narrow-clawed crayfish populations and reveal, that both A and B haplogroup A. astaci carriers exist widely in A. leptodactylus populations of Turkey.
