writing thought that's been bouncing around my head with nowhere to go: The difference between a Battle Doll and a Tin Soldier

up to two years of polish and paint to go from latter to former… and then generally anywhere between six months to five years of active duty before her sparkles dim back to the dull gleam of base metal.

it's not the end, necessarily. the ones that manage to stay busy, and more importantly, warm, can last quite a long time. the hard cases will walk off into the cold and let tin pest take them.

the real hard cases are the ones that don't crumble. the autocatalytic ravages of low-temperature α-β allotropic conversion are neither kind nor reliable. there is time to think. there is time to regret. there is time to return to the world, skirt stripped of enamel, skin sloughing into grey powder, face cracked into a smile that means nothing, and hope someone will take her in, perhaps for the kinds of things that a former battle doll can be used for.

the hope is that parts can be slowly recast from damaged material touched with selected impurity, modeled from those still whole, or from similar units, or simply guessed at. the risk is that hardened replacements may crush and destroy the softer originals they touch, creating a chimera even further at war with herself. and the nature of metallurgy is such that the metals that alloy well with tin are poison to humans.

it is not impossible that she will walk away again, alone, changed, with a chosen smile that knows no one stays pure forever. □

How significant is powder metallurgy for the use of bastardly-to-machine stuff like inconel these days? it's just i was checking out some quotes for DMLS printing recently and there wasn't *that* much of a price delta between alu and stuff like maraging steel and superalloys

I can’t speak to other industries, but in rocket engineering and fusion engineering it’s huge. Everybody loves to 3D print inconel, as well as funky copper alloys (shoutout to GRCop-84) and steel. It has terrific mechanical properties and you can make almost any arbitrary shape. The hot new thing to do is to 3D print as much of your rocket as possible.

HOWEVER, in nuclear fusion, inconel in general is kind of going out of fashion. For those of you in the room who aren't familiar, inconel refers to a class of "superalloys," structural metals that can retain their strength while very close to their melting point. One would think this would be a super useful property in a fusion reactor, and one would be absolutely correct. JET in the UK went hog-wild with inconel, as did TFTR at Princeton.

But, depending on the alloy, inconel is anywhere from 50% to 70% nickel. Nickel is particularly problematic in areas of high neutron flux (like, say, in a fusion reactor), where it captures neutrons and "activates." Almost every element does this to one extent or another, but it's real bad when it happens to nickel.

I'm not a neutronics person, but from what they tell me, the various transmutation reactions give you both radioactive byproducts with annoyingly long half-lives, and pockets of helium that lead to severe embrittlement. A nickel-rich alloy is just not going to have a good time in a fusion power plant, long term.

Manuscript: Simplified and Durable Dwemeri Metal for Common Blacksmiths

Foreword by Mzulan Nheztar: "In an effort to share the durability and resilience of Dwemer metalwork with the broader community of blacksmiths, I present a simplified and rust/erosion-proof variant of Dwemeri metal. This formula and method are designed to be more accessible while maintaining high standards of durability and quality."

Chapter 1: Introduction to Simplified Dwemeri Metal

The Need for Simplification:

While traditional Dwemeri metallurgy is complex and requires specialized knowledge, this variant aims to provide a balance between accessibility and durability, allowing common blacksmiths to achieve impressive results.

Properties of the Simplified Metal:

Rust and Erosion Proof: This alloy is designed to withstand harsh environments without degrading.

Ease of Forging: The metal is more malleable at lower temperatures, making it easier to work with common blacksmithing tools.

Chapter 2: Material Selection and Preparation

Materials Required:

Steel Ingots: Common and readily available, forming the base of the alloy.

Ebony Dust: A more accessible form of Ebony, providing strength and enchantability.

Moonstone: Used as a source of aluminum.

Quartz or Sandstone: Used as a source of silicon.

Preparation Techniques:

Purification: Each material should be as pure as possible. Steel ingots should be free of impurities, and Ebony dust should be finely ground.

Alloying Ratios:

For the simplified Dwemeri alloy:

80% Steel

10% Ebony Dust

5% Aluminum (extracted from Moonstone)

5% Silicon (extracted from Quartz or Sandstone)

Chapter 3: Extraction and Refining Processes

Extracting Aluminum from Moonstone:

Crushing and Grinding: Crush the Moonstone into a fine powder using a sturdy hammer and mortar. The powder will retain some of the stone's shimmer.

Smelting: Heat the Moonstone powder in a furnace at approximately 1,200 degrees Celsius until it melts and separates. The aluminum can be skimmed off the top.

Extracting Silicon from Quartz or Sandstone:

Crushing and Grinding: Crush Quartz or Sandstone into fine granules using a hammer and mortar.

Refining: Place the granules in a furnace at around 1,500 degrees Celsius. The silicon will separate from the rest of the material and can be collected.

Chapter 4: Smelting and Forging Processes

Smelting Temperature: Maintain a consistent temperature of 1,400 degrees Celsius for steel. Add the Aluminum and Silicon first, ensuring they are fully integrated before slowly introducing the Ebony Dust.

Forging Techniques:

Initial Forging: Shape the metal into desired forms while it is still hot (around 1,000 degrees Celsius).

Tempering: Reheat the metal to 600 degrees Celsius and then cool it rapidly in oil to enhance its durability.

Final Forging: Conduct any intricate work at lower temperatures (around 800 degrees Celsius) to maintain malleability.

Chapter 5: Practical Applications and Maintenance

Practical Uses:

Tools and Implements: Perfect for crafting tools that need to withstand harsh conditions, such as farming equipment and everyday utensils.

Armor and Weaponry: Suitable for creating durable, rust-resistant armor and weapons that require less maintenance.

Maintenance Tips:

Regular Inspection: Check for any signs of wear or damage periodically.

Cleaning: Clean with a non-abrasive cloth and mild soap solution to maintain the metal’s sheen and integrity.

Storage: Store in a dry environment to prevent any potential degradation, even though the metal is resistant to rust and erosion.

Epilogue by Mzulan Nheztar

Reflections and Hopes for the Future:

"May this simplified method empower blacksmiths across the lands, bringing a touch of Dwemer resilience and durability to your works. Use this knowledge wisely, and may your creations stand the test of time."

Final Description of Simplified Dwemeri Metal

Colour and Luster:

The final alloy will have a deep, dark gunmetal grey colour with a subtle blueish sheen, due to the aluminum content. The surface will be highly polished, with a slight iridescence, making it appear sophisticated and metallic without being overly bright.

Texture: The metal's surface will be smooth to the touch, with a very fine, almost imperceptible grain. Upon close inspection, the metal may exhibit delicate striations or veins that are a result of the alloying process, providing a textured look without roughness.

Weight and Density:

The alloy will be slightly lighter than pure steel due to the aluminum content, making it easier to work with and handle. Despite being lighter, the metal retains a dense and solid feel, indicative of its durability and strength.

Properties:

Rust and Erosion Resistance: Highly resistant to rust and erosion due to the aluminum and silicon content.

Malleability and Workability: More malleable at lower temperatures, making it easier to shape and forge with common blacksmithing tools. Hardens to a durable finish after cooling.

Aesthetic: Elegant and timeless, with a dark, refined appearance that reflects advanced craftsmanship and the use of rare materials.

Expansion to Metallurgy?

"Metallurgy" is one of those Quirk that is developed by the user's skill and creativity rather than evolving the Quirk itself. So training would involve the user learning how to best charge and utilize metals they come into contact with, trying to expand their control over the metal, and experimenting with how the energies interact with the metals and each other. This could help them charge metal faster, gain better control over how that energy is utilized, or cause minor increases in how much metal they could target with the Quirk. Otherwise, the user would be learning how to master the tools of their choice, like charging various arrow heads only to then practice shooting them at targets to practice their aim and to see what happens. Experimentation could help a lot here in order to figure out what ways the energy could be used in different containers.

Evolving would be learning what they could do with all of the energy they could infuse. Things like nuclear energy to make explosives, electrical energy to shock people, potential energy for high speed arrows, gravitational energy to trap people, thermal energy to make fire, and other things like that. Maybe they could even learn how to mix the energy together at different parts of the metal for different effects. These aren't going to be that powerful, but they certainly give a lot of options. A cool way it could evolve would be by having the energy the user makes interact with certain metals. For example, they could put a bunch of electrical energy into copper to make it stronger, or using lead with nuclear energy could help focus the blast at a point. Super Moves would come down to supercharging the metals with the energy for greater, yet unstable, effects.

For equipment, the most obvious choice would be some kind of bow or dart launcher. That way, the user could charge and launch pieces of metal at people from however far away they wanted. So having a good bow, crossbow, or wrist launcher and quiver could help the user a lot. Maybe they could incorporate some traditional trick arrow designs into the mix as well, like arrows that split to make an electrical arc. Some headgear to protect the user's eyes would be good as well, so they could make their shots. Maybe they could have some tech, like reading wind speed, to help make their shots. Though there's actually a lot of metal tools that would work with the Quirk. Throwing knives, caltrops, coins, ball bearings, spearheads, short lengths of wires, bags of metal powder, or whatever you could find in a tool box. Keeping these as backups would help the user a lot.

Researchers from EPFL have resolved a long-standing debate surrounding laser additive manufacturing processes with a pioneering approach to defect detection. The progression of laser additive manufacturing -- which involves 3D printing of metallic objects using powders and lasers -- has often been hindered by unexpected defects. Traditional monitoring methods, such as thermal imaging and machine learning algorithms, have shown significant limitations. They often either overlook defects or misinterpret them, making precision manufacturing elusive and barring the technique from essential industries like aeronautics and automotive manufacturing. But what if it were possible to detect defects in real time based on the differences in the sound the printer makes during a flawless print and one with irregularities? Up until now, the prospect of detecting these defects this way was deemed unreliable. However, researchers at the Laboratory of Thermomechanical Metallurgy (LMTM) at EPFL's School of Engineering have successfully challenged this assumption.

Alternate history where the formula for guncotton (nitrocellulose, also smokeless powder) was discovered in the early Renaissance. It is a decent amount more explosive than gunpowder, in that it has about 30% more energy and burns way more cleanly. It was also possible given technology of the time.

What would be interesting is that it would allow significantly higher charges than the metallurgy would be able to handle. Even at the time, overcharging the cannons (and handguns) would lead to explosions (and petard hoisting), so having an even better explosion wouldn't make for stronger cannons than was possible at the time. It might allow riffling earlier because of reduced fouling, but mostly just makes the guns easier to use.

What would change? I think you might get explosive shells earlier, although as I understand it, getting high explosive shells to not be shock sensitive in the initial firing was a considerable challenge that folks may not have been up to pre-19th century. More likely, you'd get increased use of mines, barrel charges, and grenades earlier.

But there would also be an expanded civilian use, I think. Gunpowder was used in metal mining, but it isn't all that great. But Nobel invented dynamite because of its civilian uses. So I could see there being enhanced infrastructure, like clearing of cataracts, earlier in history than we ended up with. (Funny result: some of the cataracts that were great for water-power of mills are cleaned up, so Lowell Massachusetts doesn't end up a textile center). You might also have a higher access to metal ore than in the counterfactual.

Ultimately, not much would change, though, I think.
