The Timely Rise of a Teenage Reformer: Youth Revolt, Feminism and the Struggle for a ‘New Sexual Morality’ at the Dawn of the Spanish Second Republic

open access: yesGender &History, EarlyView.

This article examines the conditions that enabled the teenager to become a prominent voice for feminism and sexual reform on the eve of Spain's Second Republic (1931–1939).

Wear behavior of different double-crown systems

Clinical Oral Investigations, 2012
The aim of this study was to evaluate aging effects on the retentive forces (RFs) of different double-crown systems. The effects of abutment height, inner- and outer-crown-material, taper angle, and artificial aging were analyzed.Inner (IC) and outer crowns (OC) (240), divided into four groups, 60 specimens each, were manufactured: A: IC = zirconia, OC

Double-armed crown ethers for calcium optical sensors

Talanta, 2009
This paper presents the characterization of optical sensing membranes for calcium based on ionophore-chromoionophore chemistry. Six different ionophores, 18-membered crown ether derivatives, were studied, coming from 18-crown-6 ether and 4,13-diaza-18-crown-6 ether to a series of double-armed crown ethers with different type of terminal groups.

Crown ethers containing trans double bonds

Tetrahedron Letters, 1981
Abstract The synthesis and spectroscopic properties of 18-crown-6-derivatives containing the E-α,β-dia1koxystilbene moiety as a ring member are described. These crown ethers are chiral but their complexing ability is drastically reduced as compared with the corresponding Z-isomers.

THE DOUBLE BELT SYSTEM FOR TREE CROWN STABILIZATION

Arboricultural Journal, 1993
Summary As tree crown failure along roadsides is an unacceptable hazard to both traffic and pedestrians, a new belt system for crown stabilization has been developed. The double belt “System Osnabruck” combines a stronger retaining belt, which carries the load and is linked to the bracing cable, and a weaker fastening belt, which is tightened loosely ...
