Near-congruent solidification of castings
… of as-cast Cu-Mn alloys based around the congruent minimum at 34.6 wt % Mn and 873 °C was performed. Initially, this was to evaluate the alloy as an alternative to wide freezing range Pb and Sn bronzes that are plagued with porosity. The shallow minimum and associated narrow freezing …

Motion perception with conflicting or congruent visual and vestibular cues
Introduction: We are required on a daily basis to estimate our position and motion in space by centrally combining noisy, incomplete, and potentially conflicting or ambiguous, information from both sensory sources (e.g. vestibular organs, visual, proprioceptive), and non-sensory sources (e.g. …

Self-Reference Elicits Slower Recall for Personality Congruent Adjectives: An Item-Specific Processing Effect
… the self-referenced materials are personality congruent. Previous attempts to address this question were equivocal, as brief recall tests were used and amount recalled was the indicator of item-specific processing. Research shows that item-specific processing produces slower recall than does …

Scissors congruence and K-theory
… in a manifold X are defined to be scissors congruent if they can be decomposed into finite sets of pairwise-congruent polytopes. We generalize this notion to an abstract problem: given a set of objects and decomposition and congruence relations between them, when are two objects in the set …
