Abstract Background Glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) is characterized by its cellular complexity, with a microenvironment consisting of diverse cell types, including oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) and neoplastic CD133 + radial glia-like cells.This study focuses on exploring the distinct cellular transitions in GBM, emphasizing the role of alte

The grain size and morphology of laser welds show a gradient distribution, leading to variations in mechanical properties.This study proposes a microscopic crystal plasticity constitutive (CPC) model to examine the effect of ER4047 welding wire on the mechanical properties of laser-welded aluminum alloy joints.A finite element model updating strate
