Magnesium (Mg)-based alloys have attracted great interest as metallic biomaterials for orthopedic applications due to their biocompatibility, biodegradability, and mechanical properties that resemble those of cortical bone.
Both Zn and Ca play critical roles in bone formation and growth, and have been shown to increase mechanical and corrosion properties of Mg alloys.
Previous in vitro and in vivo studies showed that Mg-based alloys improved mechanical and degradation properties for biomedical applications as compared with pure Mg [5-7].
The cause for surface nanoscale porosity in Mg alloys has been attributed to factors including solidification shrinkage, grain size, cooling rate and gas dissolution [15].

The mechanical properties of steels are strictly connected to chemical composition as well as to microstructural features obtained after thermo-mechanical processing.
As a consequence, recrystallization and grain growth are relevant to the mechanical properties of steels, thus suggesting the necessity of mathematical models able to predict the microstructural evolution after thermo-mechanical cycles.
In particular, in stainless steel grades, mechanical characteristics, and a proper microstructure with an adequate grain size distribution, are very important in order to achieve the required formability and deep drawing properties for many applications.
In order to achieve such ability, not only mechanical properties but also an adequate microstructure of the product is needed.
This is the reason why there is the need for quantitative models that accurately predict the effect of the processing parameters on the final product in order to control the microstructure and properties of steels during a thermo-mechanical treatment.

Rheological factor such as shear rate during membrane fabrication process has an effect on properties, structures and performance of membranes.
During those years, the effect of rheological factors such as shear rate on membrane development attracted less attention in membrane research study.
Rheological factor such as shear rate would affect morphology, physical properties and separation performance of an asymmetric membrane.
Employing different shear rates has affected the surface layer and sub-layer structure of the membranes and subsequently affected its properties and separation performance.
