Factors influencing the propensity to cycle to work [PDF]

, 2007
This paper describes the development of a mode choice model for the journey to work with special emphasis on the propensity to cycle. The model combines revealed preference (RP) and stated preference (SP) data to form a very large and comprehensive model.

Solar Cycle [PDF]

, 2020
The Sun’s magnetic field drives the solar wind and produces space weather. It also acts as the prototype for an understanding of other stars and their planetary environments. Plasma motions in the solar interior provide the dynamo action that generates the solar magnetic field.

Voltage bias induced modification of all oxide Pr0.5Ca0.5MnO3/SrTi0.95Nb.05O3 junctions

, 2011
In this paper we report what happens to a pristine oxide junction Pr0.5Ca0.5MnO3/SrTi0.95Nb.05O3 (PCMO/Nb:STO), when it is subjected to cycling of voltage bias of moderate value ({\pm}4V).
