GIS-Based Spatial Assessment of Urban Engineering Geological Conditions Using Borehole and Laboratory Data: A Case Study of Pavlodar, Kazakhstan

Assessment of urban engineering geological conditions is often constrained by the uneven distribution and variable completeness of site-investigation data. This study presents a GIS-based spatial assessment of ground conditions in Pavlodar, Kazakhstan, using archival borehole rec...

Integrated Remote Sensing and Geological Analysis for Delineating Prospective Gold-Mineralisation Zones at the Suzdal Deposit, Kazakhstan

Remote sensing can support mineral exploration in geologically complex terrains, but distinguishing mineralisation-associated spectral responses from lithological and surficial variability remains challenging. This study presents and evaluates an integrated workflow for delineati...

The Effect of Coarse-Grained and Ultrafine-Grained Ti13Nb13Zr Alloy Substrates on the Structure and Properties of Calcium Phosphate Coatings Formed by Micro-Arc Oxidation

This study investigates the formation, structure, phase composition, and performance of oxide–phosphate coatings produced by micro-arc oxidation (MAO) on coarse-grained and ultrafine-grained Ti13Nb13Zr alloy substrates. The effects of MAO treatment conditions and substrate struct...

Diabetes-QMS Benchmark: A Multi-Level Industrial Dataset for Temporal Quality Monitoring and Calibration in Glucose and HbA1c Diagnostic-Device Manufacturing

Quality monitoring in diagnostic-device manufacturing requires datasets that preserve temporal, hierarchical, and calibration-related structure while avoiding information leakage in predictive evaluation. This study presents the Diabetes-QMS Benchmark, a de-identified multi-level...

Waste-Derived Natural Polymer Biosorbents for Toxic Metal Ions: Structure–Sorption Relationships, Modification Strategies, and Prospects for Solid-Phase Sensing

Waste-derived natural polymers offer a route to low-cost sorbents for toxic metal ions, but reported performance is difficult to compare because precursor composition, polymer processing, modification, and experimental conditions vary widely. This critical review examines silk fi...

Temperature-Dependent Irradiation-History Effects in Tungsten Under Sequential Helium and Hydrogen Plasma Exposure

Tungsten plasma-facing components in fusion devices may experience sequential exposure to helium and hydrogen, making irradiation history an important factor in their subsequent structural and hydrogen-release behavior. This study investigated polycrystalline tungsten exposed to...

Spatiotemporal heterogeneity in the association between ambient air pollution and respiratory morbidity in the industrial Region of East Kazakhstan

Ambient air pollution remains a significant risk factor for respiratory morbidity, yet its spatiotemporal associations in the industrial regions of Central Asia remain insufficiently studied. To identify the association between airborne pollutants and respiratory morbidity in fou...

Progressive Melt Fractionation as the Primary Control on the Formation of Rare-Metal Pegmatites: Evidence for Continuous Granite–Pegmatite Evolution in the Central Kalba Ore District, Eastern Kazakhstan

Rare-metal pegmatites of the Kalba–Narym belt (Eastern Kazakhstan) represent an important source of Li, Cs, Ta, Nb, Be, and associated critical metals. Despite extensive geological investigations, the relationships between granites, pegmatites, and late-stage alteration products...

Comparative Technological Routes for Processing Chromo-Magnesian Ore Materials into Chemical and Metallurgical Products: A Systematic Review

Chromo-magnesian ore materials constitute a complex resource base for producing both metallurgical and chemical products, yet existing research remains fragmented across beneficiation, smelting, chemical extraction, waste valorization, and refractory applications. This systematic...
