Shear strength characteristics of mechanically biologically treated (MBT) waste

open access: yes, 2011
Mechanical biological treatment (MBT) is the generic name for a group of processes which have been used to reduce the biodegradable content of municipal solid waste (MSW) in order to aid compliance with the Landfill Directive.

Artificial molecular machines and motors—Design and control of nanoscale motion

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Molecules are constantly moving because of thermal fluctuations, but random motion alone cannot be exploited to perform directional tasks. Artificial molecular machines use chemical, electrical, or light energy to bias this motion. Molecular shuttles, rotary motors, and supramolecular pumps illustrate how nanoscale movement can be controlled and ...

Characterization of dentine to assess bond strength of dental composites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This study was performed to develop alternating dentine adhesion models that could help in the evaluation of a self-bonding dental composite. For this purpose dentine from human and ivory was characterized chemically and microscopically before and after ...

Damage Mechanisms and Mechanical Properties of High-Strength Multiphase Steels [PDF]

open access: yesMaterials, 2018
The usage of high-strength steels for structural components and reinforcement parts is inevitable for modern car-body manufacture in reaching lightweight design as well as increasing passive safety. Depending on their microstructure these steels show differing damage mechanisms and various mechanical properties which cannot be classified ...

Leucine‐rich glioma inactivated 1 (LGI1) is a ganglioside‐binding protein

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neuronal hyperexcitability associated with a decrease/absence of the extracellular protein LGI1 has been suggested to be primarily due to the downregulation of Kv1 channel expression. The molecular mechanisms underlying this decrease have not yet been elucidated.

The influence of holes in the mechanical properties of EWT solar cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
EWT back contact solar cells are manufactured from very thin silicon wafers. These wafers are drilled by means of a laser process creating a matrix of tiny holes with a density of approximately 125 holes per square centimeter.

A structural design approach toward metallic glass with simultaneous tunable thermal expansion and high structural stiffness

open access: yesJournal of Materials Science: Materials in Engineering
Although metallic glasses (MGs) possess relatively low thermal expansion coefficient (α) compared to their crystalline counterparts due to the existence of free volume, their α-values are still too large to meet the demands of practical application. Here,
