Evaluation of two virtual cursors for assisting web access to people with motor impairments
(Elsevier, 2019-08-02)
People with motor impairments (MI) may face accessibility barriers when using computers due to their health conditions and therefore need to use alternative devices to a standard mouse for pointing and clicking in graphical ...
Non-Abelian anomalies and hadronic fluids
(IOP, 2019)
By using differential geometry methods, we study the role of non-Abelian anomalies in relativistic fluids. We obtain closed expressions for the covariant currents derived from the Chern-Simons effective action. Our results ...
Changes in Surface Tension of Aqueous Humor in Anterior Segment Ocular Pathologies
(MDPI, 2016-09)
The aim of this study was to identify and determine differences in surface tension (ST) of aqueous humor (AH) in patients with cataract, glaucoma and Fuchs endothelial dystrophy (FED). Two hundred and two samples of AH ...
Thermodynamics of Resonant Scalars in AdS/CFT and implications for QCD
(E. D. P Sciences, 2016)
We explore the thermodynamics of a simple 5D Einstein-dilaton gravity model with a massive scalar field, with asymptotically AdS behavior in the UV. The holographic renormalization is addressed in details, and analytical ...
Solitons and black hole in shift symmetric scalar-tensor gravity with cosmological constant
(Springer, 2018-06-14)
We demonstrate the existence of static, spherically symmetric globally regular, i.e. solitonic solutions of a shift-symmetric scalar-tensor gravity model with negative cosmological constant. The norm of the Noether current ...
Recent Advances in Homogeneous Metal-Catalyzed Aerobic C–H Oxidation of Benzylic Compounds
(MDPI, 2018-12-08)
Csp(3)-H oxidation of benzylic methylene compounds is an established strategy for the synthesis of aromatic ketones, esters, and amides. The need for more sustainable oxidizers has encouraged researchers to explore the use ...
The Crossroad of Ion Channels and Calmodulin in Disease
(MDPI, 2019-01-02)
Calmodulin (CaM) is the principal Ca2+ sensor in eukaryotic cells, orchestrating the activity of hundreds of proteins. Disease causing mutations at any of the three genes that encode identical CaM proteins lead to major ...
Genome sequence and characterization of the bcs clusters for the production of nanocellulose from the low pH resistant strain Komagataeibacter medellinensis ID13488
(Wiley, 2019-02-22)
Komagataeibacter medellinensis ID13488 (formerly Gluconacetobacter medellinensis ID13488) is able to produce crystalline bacterial cellulose (BC) under high acidic growth conditions. These abilities make this strain desirable ...
Hole Making by Electrical Discharge Machining (EDM) of -TiAl Intermetallic Alloys
(MDPI, 2018-07)
Due to their excellent strength-to-weight ratio and corrosion and wear resistance, gamma-TiAl alloys are selected for aerospace and automotive applications. Since these materials are difficult to cut and machine by ...
Improving Stability Prediction in Peripheral Milling of Al7075T6
(MDPI, 2018-08)
Chatter is an old enemy to machinists but, even today, is far from being defeated. Current requirements around aerospace components call for stronger and thinner workpieces which are more prone to vibrations. This study ...
