Anatomy of an Asteroid Break-Up: The Case of P/2013 R3

, 2017
We present an analysis of new and published data on P/2013 R3, the first asteroid detected while disintegrating. Thirteen discrete components are measured in the interval between UT 2013 October 01 and 2014 February 13.

Characterization of Nitinol Produced by Laser Powder Bed Fusion for Mechanical Metamaterial Applications

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Stabilization of L‐PBF Ni50.7Ti49.3 under low‐cycle loading was investigated. Recoverable strain after cycling was dependent on the amount of applied load. Recovery ratio was 53.4% and 35.1% at intermediate and high load, respectively. The maximum total strain reached 10.3% at a high load of 1200 MPa.

The Chemical Composition of an Extrasolar Minor Planet

, 2007
We report the relative abundances of 17 elements in the atmosphere of the white dwarf star GD 362, material that, very probably, was contained previously in a large asteroid or asteroids with composition similar to the Earth/Moon system. The asteroid may

Evaluating Energy Absorption Performance of Filled Lattice Structures

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Maximum stress must be considered to robustly evaluate energy absorber designs. This approach was applied to compare all types of absorbers in a single Ashby diagram and determine the utility of filling lattice voids with a second material. High‐performance fillers can improve the performance of lattices that are limited by buckling or catastrophic ...

Embryonic and Larval Development of an Interspecific Grouper Backcross Between the Kelp Grouper (Epinephelus moara) ♀ and KGGG (E. moara ♀ × E. lanceolatus ♂) ♂

Fishes
Backcrossing serves as an effective tool for interspecific gene introgression, facilitating germplasm improvement. To develop superior grouper aquaculture varieties, in this study, a backcrossed breed was constructed by crossing a male hybrid grouper ...

Direct Metal Deposition of Graphene–Ti28Nb35.4Zr Matrix Composites With Enhanced Mechanical, Corrosion, and Biocompatibility Properties for Bone Implants

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Graphene nanoplatelet (0.1 wt.%) reinforcement significantly enhances the performance of β Ti‐28Nb‐35.4Zr alloy. Grain refinement, reduced water contact angle, and improved surface characteristics promote osteoblast adhesion and complete surface coverage after 7 days.

3D (Bio) Printing Combined Fiber Fabrication Methods for Tissue Engineering Applications: Possibilities and Limitations

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Parent autonomy support and undergraduates’ academic engagement in online learning: the mediate role of self-regulation

Psicologia: Reflexão e Crítica
Background The role of parent support for adolescents has been validated in online learning. However, less attention has been paid to undergraduates. Main body The research used self-reported questionnaires to investigate the mediating effects of self ...

Near‐Infrared Emitting Lanthanide Catecholate Giant Single Crystals – Morphology Control and Photon Down‐Conversion

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Controlled syntheses of lanthanide coordination polymers based on the dihydroxybenzoquinone (DHBQ) organic linker afforded large single crystals of Ln‐DHBQ CPs (Ln = Yb, Nd). A novel structural variant of Yb‐DHBQ is identified by means of single crystal diffraction analysis.

A qualitative examination of parental perceptions of eating behavior and body image issues of their adolescent children: Identifying ambivalences and contradictions

Health Psychology Open
This study explores how parents of adolescents perceive their children’s eating behaviours and body image influences. Data collected through semi-structured interviews with 14 parent pairs were thematically analysed.
