TL;DR: SciPy as discussed by the authors is an open source scientific computing library for the Python programming language, which includes functionality spanning clustering, Fourier transforms, integration, interpolation, file I/O, linear algebra, image processing, orthogonal distance regression, minimization algorithms, signal processing, sparse matrix handling, computational geometry, and statistics.
Abstract: SciPy is an open source scientific computing library for the Python programming language. SciPy 1.0 was released in late 2017, about 16 years after the original version 0.1 release. SciPy has become a de facto standard for leveraging scientific algorithms in the Python programming language, with more than 600 unique code contributors, thousands of dependent packages, over 100,000 dependent repositories, and millions of downloads per year. This includes usage of SciPy in almost half of all machine learning projects on GitHub, and usage by high profile projects including LIGO gravitational wave analysis and creation of the first-ever image of a black hole (M87). The library includes functionality spanning clustering, Fourier transforms, integration, interpolation, file I/O, linear algebra, image processing, orthogonal distance regression, minimization algorithms, signal processing, sparse matrix handling, computational geometry, and statistics. In this work, we provide an overview of the capabilities and development practices of the SciPy library and highlight some recent technical developments.

TL;DR: The architecture of SymPy is presented, a description of its features, and a discussion of select domain specific submodules are discussed, to become the standard symbolic library for the scientific Python ecosystem.
Abstract: SymPy is an open source computer algebra system written in pure Python. It is built with a focus on extensibility and ease of use, through both interactive and programmatic applications. These characteristics have led SymPy to become a popular symbolic library for the scientific Python ecosystem. This paper presents the architecture of SymPy, a description of its features, and a discussion of select submodules. The supplementary material provide additional examples and further outline details of the architecture and features of SymPy.

TL;DR: The 1967 IFC Formulation for Industrial Use (IFC-67) has been formally recognized to calculate thermodynamic properties of water and steam for any official use such as performance guarantee calculations of power cycles as mentioned in this paper.
Abstract: In the 1960’s an industrial formulation for the thermodynamic properties of water and steam was developed called “The 1967 IFC Formulation for Industrial Use” (IFC-67) [1]. Since 1967 IFC-67 has been formally recognized to calculate thermodynamic properties of water and steam for any official use such as performance guarantee calculations of power cycles. In addition to this, IFC-67 has been used for innumerable other industrial applications. However, during the last few years a number of weaknesses of IFC-67 have appeared. This fact and the progress that has been achieved in mathematical methods to develop accurate equations of state led to the development of a new industrial formulation in an international research project initiated and coordinated by the International Association for the Properties of Water and Steam (IAPWS).

TL;DR: In this article, the development of hard coatings from a titanium nitride film through superlattice coatings to nanocomposite coatings is reviewed, and significant attention is devoted to hard and superhard single layer nano-coating.
Abstract: This article reviews the development of hard coatings from a titanium nitride film through superlattice coatings to nanocomposite coatings. Significant attention is devoted to hard and superhard single layer nanocomposite coatings. A strong correlation between the hardness and structure of nanocomposite coatings is discussed in detail. Trends in development of hard nanocomposite coatings are also outlined.
