Abstract: A structural joint between two components of metal material is obtained by carrying out an electrical resistance welding spot between said components and subsequently performing a step of applying a cladding of metal material by an additive manufacturing technology. In one example, after a first step of applying a coarse base cladding, a second step of applying a fine cladding is carried out, again by additive manufacturing technology. The fine cladding can include a distribution of stiffening micro-ribs above the base cladding. The same method can also be applied to a single sheet metal component, rather than to a welded joint.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for data relocation operation techniques are described. A memory system may include blocks of memory cells, for example, within a non-volatile memory device of the memory system. The memory system may identify a command to perform a data relocation operation associated with a block of memory cells and may select between a first procedure and a second procedure for performing the data relocation operation. The memory system may select between the first procedure and the second procedure based on whether one or more parameters associated with the data relocation operation satisfy a threshold. For example, the memory system may select the first procedure if the one or more parameters satisfy the threshold and may select the second procedure if the one or more parameters do not satisfy the threshold. The memory system may perform the data relocation operation using the selected procedure.
