the present study investigated construct equivalence of multiple choice (mc) and constructed response (cr) item types across stem and content equivalent mc and cr items (item type ‘a’), non-stem-equivalent but content equivalent mc and cr items (item type ‘b’), and non-stem and non-content equivalent mc and cr items (item type ‘c’). one hundred seventy english-major undergraduates completed mc ...

In this research, the TLP bonding of IN-738LC superalloy was investigated using MBF-20 amorphous foil produced by melt spinning process. The bonding process was carried out at 1035-1080°C for 30-60 min under the vacuum atmosphere. Microstructural investigations showed that the eutectic phases formed in non-isothermal solidified zone (ASZ) are  consised of secondary phase borieds r...
