Evaluating Plasma Torches as a Low‐Decarburization Preheating Method for MgO–C Refractory Linings
This study evaluates direct current (DC) plasma torches using nitrogen as an alternative preheating method for magnesia‐carbon (MgO–C) refractory‐lined ladles. Full‐scale trials at 0.7 and 1.5 MW are compared to conventional gas burner. Plasma‐heated samples show lower decarburization and improved surface integrity due to partial sintering and reduced ...

ABSTRACT Prostate cancer (PCa) is an endocrine‐related cancer highly dependent on androgenic signaling. Beyond hormone dependence, extrinsic factors play a significant role in the risk of developing PCa, which raises concern about the influence of environmental compounds such as endocrine‐disrupting chemicals (EDCs). Tributyltin (TBT) is an EDC used in

Desarrollo de un motor de juegos de aventuras
Si nos remontamos al inicio de los videojuegos, se puede comprobar que en ese momento surge la necesidad de crear algoritmos capaces de tener la suficiente capacidad como para resolver problemas complejos por sí solos en diversas situaciones. Por otro lado, si trazamos una línea temporal desde hace diez años hasta la actualidad, se podría comprobar ...

Elevation reverses the effects of forest structure on folivory and leaf asymmetry
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Centuries of timber production have homogenized many forests by reducing variation in canopy density and deadwood availability, with far‐reaching consequences for biodiversity and trophic interactions.
