Semantic Modeling in Materials Science and Engineering With Platform MaterialDigital Core Ontology 3.0

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
The community‐driven Platform MaterialDigital Core Ontology (PMDco) 3.0 is introduced as a Basic Formal Ontology‐aligned semantic backbone for the processing–structure–properties paradigm in Materials Science and Engineering. Modular engineering, automated releases, and validation workflows are highlighted and key semantic patterns for materials ...

Distinct Microstructural Characteristic Lengths Defining Notch Fatigue Crack Initiation and Propagation, and Defect Tolerance in Advanced Steels

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Schematic representation of modes of microcrack nucleation, growth and temporary arrestment at different boundaries, with the criteria for crack propagation in three scenarios: (1) large notch, (2) defect/small sharp notch, and (3) long crack. This work revisits and integrates results on the fatigue behavior of advanced bainitic steels (in particular ...

Uniform Amorphization of Crystalline Silicon Surfaces Enabled by Deep Ultraviolet Femtosecond Laser Pulses

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Deep‐UV (258 nm) femtosecond pulses enable uniform amorphous silicon writing on Si(100)/(111) with a six‐fold larger fluence amorphization window than NIR methods. Optimized fluence and overlap yield 20–45 nm uniform and continuous amorphous layers. Microscopy shows sharp interfaces, and real‐time reflectivity reveals nanosecond melt–resolidification ...

Using Science Fiction as a Teaching Tool in ESP Classes for Science Students

open access: yesILCEA, 2018
The aim of this paper is to see how science fiction can be used in the ESP classroom with Science and Technology students. Following on from previous work in this field, this paper explores how we can make space for science fiction in ESP teaching, and ...

External Memory Drives : Deletion and Digitality in Agrippa (A Book of The Dead)

open access: yes, 2016
While William Gibson's cyberpunk fiction is fundamental for understanding the relationship between digitality and science fiction, I suggest that Gibson's most important "digital" work is neither cyberpunk, science fiction, nor even fiction.

Superlubricity and Corrosion Inhibition Properties of Solvate Ionic Liquids in Hybrid Carbon Fiber Reinforced Plastic–Steel Interfaces

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Solvate ionic liquids lubrication reduced the coefficient of friction by ∼60% compared to dry sliding, reaching steady‐state values as low as 0.04–0.05. Corrosion weight‐loss measurements in 1 M HCl further demonstrated significant inhibition behavior, with only 100 ppm of [Li(G3)][TFSI] (∼68.5 μL/L) reducing corrosion‐product weight loss by 63 ...

Science Fiction in the Arab World: A Genre Still in the Cradle

open access: yesRevue des Sciences Humaines, 2010
This paper is concerned with the status of science fiction literature in the Arab world; it seeks to examine the major causes and factors that have led the Arab countries to lag far behind the developed nations in the field of science fiction which has ...

Culturally mapping universes: Fan production as ethnographic fragments

open access: yesTransformative Works and Cultures, 2011
Ethnography has played a large role in fan studies; thus, any mention of ethnography in conjunction with fan studies is unsurprising. Ethnography's use of performance studies and the subsequent emphasis on embodied practice, however, creates new ...

Model‐Guided Design of Paper Membrane Architectures for Controlled Flow and Enhanced Diagnostic Sensitivity

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Geometrical modifications on nitrocellulose membranes can result in observable differences in signal intensity relative to a reference membrane (top and bottom left). Using two reference experiments, we have developed a theoretical model that can reproduce the experimentally observed flow changes and provide information on membrane parameters, e.g ...

Cognitive science fiction

open access: yesTrends in Cognitive Sciences, 2001
Cognitive science looks more like science fiction in a US lab where scientists are working on a new generation of cyborg. Half-fish, half-robot, their creation is capable of responding to light. The researchers connect the brainstem of a lamprey to a small robot on wheels, tapping into the neural network normally responsible for the lamprey's orienting
