introduction:. nickel (ni) is one of the toxic heavy metals that exposure to it has been connected with chronic respiratory complications such as asthma, chronic bronchitis, lung cancer and heart diseases .. in this research,  original studies that investigated occupational or environmental exposures to nickel and  measured nickel levels in human tissues was reviewed. materials and methods: in ...

BACKGROUND Occupational causes of respiratory cancers need to be further investigated: the role of occupational exposures in the aetiology of head and neck cancers remains largely unknown, and there are still substantial uncertainties for a number of suspected lung carcinogens. The main objective of the study is to examine occupational risk factors for lung and head and neck cancers. METHODS/...

This study investigates transport phenomena in the weld pool (WP) of gas tungsten arc (GTA) welding of Nickel to 304 stainless steel. A finite element 3D simulation of fluid flow and heat transfer of spot welding without consumable is accomplished which leads to prediction of the weld zone shape, weld penetration and dilution of alloying elements. The model includes magneto-hydrodynamics (MHD),...
