Comparison between the stiffness method and the hybrid method applied to a circular ring
(Springer, 2018-01-17)
This study deals with the comparison of stresses and displacements of a circular ring obtained by two numerical formulations, namely the stiffness method and the hybrid method, applied to isoparametric quadrilateral elements. ...
Dimensional stability of Electric Arc Furnace slag in civil engineering applications
(Elsevier, 2018-09-15)
Dimensional stability of manufactured aggregates represents a matter of interest for many applications in civil engineering. Past results evidenced how steel slag might be affected by potential swelling, due to several ...
Configuration of the magnetosome chain: a natural magnetic nanoarchitecture
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018)
Magnetospirillum gryphiswaldense is a microorganism with the ability to biomineralize magnetite nanoparticles, called magnetosomes, and arrange them into a chain that behaves like a magnetic compass. Rather than straight ...
Differences in physiological responses during wheelchair basketball matches according to playing time and competition
(Routledge, Taylor & Francis Group, 2018-09-27)
Purpose: The main purpose of the present study was to determine physiological responses in
wheelchair basketball (WB) matches in relation to heart rate (HR), match load (ML), differentiated
perceived exertion (dRPE), ...
Gene delivery in the cornea: in vitro and ex vivo evaluation of solid lipid nanoparticle-based vectors
(Future Medicine, 2018-08-01)
Inflammation is a process that underlies sight-threatening ocular surface
diseases, and gene supplementation with the plasmid that encodes for interleukin-10 (p-
IL10) will allow the sustained de novo synthesis of the ...
Grammaticalization of nouns meaning “head” into reflexive markers: A cross-linguistic study
(De Gruyter Mouton, 2018-10-17)
Studies on the grammaticalization of body-part nouns into reflexives have often formulated cross-linguistic generalizations, but have mostly failed to provide detailed analyses of similar developments attested in ...
Hydrogenolysis of 5-hydroxymethylfurfural to produce 2,5-dimethylfuran over ZrO2 supported Cu and RuCu catalysts
(ACS, 2018-07-13)
Glucose dehydration to HMF and its hydrogenolysis to DMF, a suitable biofuel, have been studied using
the same catalysts for both processes. The 10CuZr catalyst shows the highest HMF yield (25.6%) with an acceptable glucose ...
How is communication of vaccines in traditional media: a systematic review
(SAGE on behalf of the Royal Society for Public Health, 2018-06-07)
Aim: Taking into account that a key determinant in public approval of vaccinations is how the
media constructs and frames messages about vaccination programmes, our aim is to review
communication studies exploring media ...
Highly packed graphene–CNT films as electrodes for aqueous supercapacitors with high volumetric performance
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2018-01-24)
The increasing complexity of portable electronics demands the development of energy storage devices with higher volumetric energy and power densities. In this work we report a simple strategy for the preparation of partially ...
