Experimental observation of vacancy assisted martensitic transformation shift in Ni-Fe-Ga alloys
(APS, 2019-04-23)
[EN] Positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy is used to experimentally demonstrate the direct relationship between vacancies and the shift of the martensitic transformation temperature in a Ni55Fe17Ga28 alloy. The ...
Molecular detection of plaice remains in the stomachs of potential predators on a flatfish nursery ground.
(Inter-Research, 2012-01-10)
Stomach contents of potential predators from a flatfish nursery ground on the Scot-
tish west coast were examined visually and probed using a TaqMan real-time PCR based assay
designed to detect plaice Pleuronectes platessa ...
Low temperature magnetic properties of a Ni50Mn34In16 ball-milled metamagnetic shape memory alloy
(Elsevier, 2016-09-01)
[EN] The effect of the atomic disorder induced by ball-milling on the structure and the magnetic properties has been analyzed in a Ni50Mn34In16 metamagnetic shape memory alloy. The as-milled samples displayed an amorphous ...
Mechanically induced disorder and crystallization process in Ni-Mn-In ball-milled alloys
(Elsevier, 2016-12-25)
[EN] High mechanical deformation has been induced in a Ni-Mn-In metamagnetic shape memory alloy by means of ball milling. The evolution of both the martensitic transformation and the magnetic properties associated to the ...
A mechanism for discovering semantic relationships among agent communication protocols
(Springer, 2011-11)
One relevant aspect in the development of the Semantic Web framework is the
achievement of a real inter-agent communication capability at the semantic level. Agents
should be able to communicate with each other freely ...
Prenatal air pollution exposure and growth and cardio-metabolic risk in preschoolers
(Elsevier, 2020-03-16)
Objectives: We investigated the association between outdoor air pollutants exposure in the first trimester of pregnancy, and growth and cardio-metabolic risk at four years of age, and evaluated the mediating role of birth ...
Genomic Selection Signatures In Sheep From The Western Pyrenees
(Biomed Central, 2018-03-22)
Background: The current large spectrum of sheep phenotypic diversity results from the combined product of sheep selection for different production traits such as wool, milk and meat, and its natural adaptation to new ...
Digging into the Genomic Past of Swiss Honey Bees by Whole-Genome Sequencing Museum Specimens
(Oxford University Press, 2020-12)
Historical specimens in museum collections provide opportunities to gain insights into the genomic past. For the Western honey bee, Apis mellifera L., this is particularly important because its populations are currently ...
Insights on the Origin of Invasive Copepods colonizing Basque Estuaries; a DNA Barcoding Approach
(Biomed Central, 2016-07-13)
Background: The introduction of NIS to estuaries and coastal embayment is of great concern. Commercial ships’
ballast water discharge and the northwards progression of species due to the ongoing climate change arise as ...
Uncertainties in the Testing of the Coefficient of Thermal Expansion of Overhead Conductors
(MDPI, 2020-01-14)
Overhead lines can be replaced by high temperature low sag (HTLS) conductors in order
to increase their capacity. The coe cients of thermal expansion (CTE) of the HTLS conductors
are lower than the CTE of conventional ...
