The role of electrical current mode in calcium carbonate deposition on conductive carbon nanofiber–epoxy coating

Journal of Applied Polymer Science, Volume 141, Issue 13, 5 April 2024.
Electrical current mode (AC, DC, Pulse DC) affects both anodic scale inhibition as well as cathodic enhanced scaling. Abstract Calcium carbonate is one of the most common scaling minerals. In this paper we have used different electrical current modes (direct current [DC], pulsed DC, and alternating current [AC]) to control the amount, morphology, and ...

A two‐stage solution method for the design problem of medium‐thick plates in steel plants

IET Collaborative Intelligent Manufacturing, Volume 6, Issue 1, March 2024.
The design of the mother plate is an important part in the production process of a medium‐thick plate, which includes the combination of sub‐plates and the size design of plate. In this study, a multi‐objective model for medium‐thick plate design is proposed based on the 2D bin packing model.

α‐d‐2′‐Deoxyadenosine, an irradiation product of canonical DNA and a component of anomeric nucleic acids: crystal structure, packing and Hirshfeld surface analysis

Acta Crystallographica Section C, Volume 80, Issue 2, Page 21-29, February 2024.
α‐d‐2′‐Deoxyadenosine, the anomer of the canonical nucleoside β‐d‐2′‐deoxyadenosine, is a γ‐irradiation product of DNA and a constituent of anomeric DNA. The single‐crystal X‐ray analysis reveals the formation of two conformers with unusual conformational parameters for α‐nucleosides.

Incidence and risk factors for umbilical cord prolapse in labor when amniotomy is used and with spontaneous rupture of membranes: A Swedish nationwide register study

Acta Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 103, Issue 2, Page 304-312, February 2024.
This is the largest study examining the incidence of umbilical cord prolapse (UCP) and its risk factors in labors when an amniotomy is used and those with a spontaneous rupture of membranes. The incidence of UCP was similar for both labors with an amniotomy and those with a spontaneous rupture of membranes.

Lipid Metabolism in Pregnancy Women with Hypothyroidism and Potential Influence on Pregnancy Outcome

Journal of Lipids, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Thyroid hormone (TH) is essential for maintaining normal physiological processes during pregnancy, including the metabolism of energy materials in both the mother and fetus and the growth and development of fetal bone and nervous system. TH can act on the liver, fat, and other tissues and organs to participate in lipid synthesis and breakdown through ...

El supermultiplicador, la acumulación de capital, las exportaciones y el crecimiento económico

El Trimestre Económico, 2018
Antecedentes: Siguiendo a Kaldor (1978) y a Thirlwall (1979), McCombie (1985) propone un supermultiplicador de las exportaciones en el que éstas afectan positivamente a los componentes de la demanda agregada en el contexto de una economía restringida por
