Using atomistic simulations based on the creation-relaxation algorithm, we explore evolution of microstructure in irradiated zirconium over a broad range radiation exposure. In agreement with experimental observations, find that at relatively low temperatures, evolves towards an asymptotic dynamic steady state forming doses close to 1 dpa. Simulations show spontaneous formation $a$-type interst...

Introduction: Children with Apert syndrome have hypertelorism and midfacial hypoplasia, which can be treated facial bipartition (FB), often aided by rigid external distraction. The technique involves a midline osteotomy that lateralizes the maxillary segments, resulting in posterior cross-bites diastema. Varying degrees of spontaneous realignment dental arches occurs postoperatively. This study...
