Wear Mechanisms and Wear Model of Carbide Tools during Dry Drilling of CFRP/TiAl6V4 Stacks
(MDPI, 2019-09-04)
The present contribution on tool wear during the drilling of carbon fiber composite materials (CFRP)/Ti stacks intends to determine (i) if the adhesion of titanium to carbide is mechanical or chemical, (ii) the possible ...
Tailoring thermomechanical treatment of Ni-Fe-Ga melt-spun ribbons for elastocaloric applications
(Elsevier, 2019-09)
In the present work, the structural, mechanical and shape memory properties of Ni55Fe16Ga29 (at.%) melt-spun ribbons have been studied with a prospective of application in the elastocaloric devises. Particularly, a special ...
Effects of multiple stressors associated with agriculture on stream macroinvertebrate communities in a tropical catchment
(Public Library Science, 2019-08-08)
Tropical forests are declining at unprecedented rates in favour of agriculture, and streams can be severely impacted due to effects of multiple stressors that have rarely been considered together in tropical studies. We ...
Noncollinearity in dijet fragmentation in electron-positron scattering
(American Physical Society, 2019-08-09)
We study fragmentation in electron-positron annihilation assuming a dijet situation, using variables defined independent of any frame. In a collinear situation some of the variables are centered around zero with the small ...
Solid Lipid Nanoparticles Loaded with Glucocorticoids Protect Auditory Cells from Cisplatin-Induced Ototoxicity
(MDPI, 2019-09-14)
Cisplatin is a chemotherapeutic agent that causes the irreversible death of auditory sensory cells, leading to hearing loss. Local administration of cytoprotective drugs is a potentially better option co-therapy for ...
NMR-based newborn urine screening for optimized detection of inherited errors of metabolism
(Nature Publishing, 2019-09-10)
Inborn errors of metabolism (IEMs) are rare diseases produced by the accumulation of abnormal amounts of metabolites, toxic to the newborn. When not detected on time, they can lead to irreversible physiological and ...
Optical Helicity and Optical Chirality in Free Space and in the Presence of Matter
(MDPI, 2019-09-03)
The inherently weak nature of chiral light-matter interactions can be enhanced by orders of magnitude utilizing artificially-engineered nanophotonic structures. These structures enable high spatial concentration of ...
PDF profiling using the forward-backward asymmetry in Neutral Current Drell-Yan production
(Springer, 2019-10-15)
Non-perturbative QCD effects from Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs) may be constrained by using high-statistics Large Hadron Collider (LHC) data. Drell-Yan (DY) measurements in the Charged Current (CC) case provide one ...
Real-Time Propagation TDDFT and Density Analysis for Exciton Coupling Calculations in Large Systems
(American Chemical Society, 2019-06)
Photoactive systems are characterized by their capacity to absorb the energy of light and transform it. Usually, more than one chromophore is involved in the light absorption and excitation transport processes in complex ...
Route to form skyrmions in soft magnetic films
(American Institute of Physics, 2019-08)
Magnetic skyrmions which are topologically nontrivial magnetization configurations have attracted much attention recently due to their potential applications in information recording and signal processing. Conventionally, ...
