Morphological instability, evolution, and scaling in strained epitaxial films: An amplitude equation analysis of the phase field crystal model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Morphological properties of strained epitaxial films are examined through a mesoscopic approach developed to incorporate both the film crystalline structure and standard continuum theory.

β‐Catenin/c‐Myc Axis Modulates Autophagy Response to Different Ammonia Concentrations

open access: yesAdvanced Biology, Volume 9, Issue 3, March 2025.
Ammonia, detoxified by the liver into urea and glutamine, impacts autophagy differently at varying levels. Low ammonia activates autophagy via c‐Myc and β‐catenin, while high levels suppress it. Using Huh7 cells and Spf‐ash mice, c‐Myc's role in cytoprotective autophagy is revealed, offering insights into hyperammonemia and potential therapeutic ...

The visual poetry in the film criticism of Ángel Fernández-Santos

open access: yesCommunication & Society (Formerly Comunicación y Sociedad), 2015
Very often, it is difficult in the film criticism to distinguish the aesthetic principles of the films which are judged as excellent, non-standard or, even, masterpieces.

Quenched growth of nanostructured lead thin films on insulating substrates

open access: yes, 2004
Lead island films were obtained via vacuum vapor deposition on glass and ceramic substrates at 80 K. Electrical conductance was measured during vapor condensation and further annealing of the film up to room temperature.

Trace Nickel Activated Biphasic Core‐CuOii/Shell‐CuOi Secondary Microspheres Enable Room Temperature Parts‐Per‐Trillion‐Level NO2 Detection

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
An idea of designing novel sensors is proposed by creating appropriate Schottky barriers and vacancies between isomorphous Core‐CuOii/ Shell‐CuOi secondary microspheres and enhancing catalytic and spill‐over effects, and electronegativity via spontaneous biphasic separation, self‐assembly, and trace‐Ni‐doping.

The Human Spirit in Lagaan: Once Upon a Time in India [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In as much as film can be considered a modern-day corollary to these forms of rhetoric, one could conclude that certain movies—advertently or inadvertently—perpetuate cultural identities and solidify national interests as well.

Metal Oxidation Kinetics and the Transition from Thin to Thick Films

open access: yes, 2018
We report an investigation of growth kinetics and transition from thin to thick films during metal oxidation. In the thin film limit (< 20 nm), Cabrera and Mott's theory is usually adopted by explicitly considering ionic drift through the oxide in ...

Zhang Yimou's 'Blood simple':cannibalism, remaking and translation in world cinema [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Zhang Yimou’s A Woman, A Gun and A Noodle Shop (2009) remakes the Coen brothers’ Blood Simple (1984) in a way that re-imagines the earlier film in a Chinese setting, adapting and recreating the narrative, but the film cannot be regarded as being aimed ...

Unidirectional Tape‐Based Composites from Hemp and Pineapple Leaf Fiber: Mechanical Performance in Conventional and Bio‐Based Matrices

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The study investigates novel semi‐finished products made of unidirectionally arranged hemp or pineapple leaf fiber‐reinforced composites produced from different matrices. The materials are analyzed in terms of their mechanical and interfacial properties and void content.

Directed by Yasujirō Ozu, by Shiguéhiko Hasumi. University of California Press, 2024, 356 pp.

open access: yesAlphaville: Journal of Film and Screen Media
The films of Yasujirō Ozu have been so universally acclaimed that it may seem as though his work is beyond criticism, as though we have collectively agreed not only on his status as a singular director, but on why precisely his films are considered ...
