Approaches to assess the group consensus in Yes-or-No type experts' group decision making

Agricultural Economics (AGRICECON), 2010
Group consensus indicators provide an important insight and information about how to combine a group of expert judgments. This paper is concerned with the development of a set of indicators to be used in analyzing the group consensus in evaluating Yes-or-

Incorporation of Selenium into Sol–Gel‐Derived Bioactive Glass: Influence on Glass Structure, Bioactivity, and its Selective Cytotoxicity

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Selenium was incorporated into a sol–gel‐derived bioactive glass to enable sustained therapeutic ion release. The selenium‐containing glass preserved bioactivity while selectively inducing cytotoxicity in osteosarcoma cells and maintaining osteoblastic viability.

Correlation of Mechanical Thresholds, Glasgow Composite Measure Pain Scale, and Sharp and Wheeler Grading Scale in Dogs with Acute Thoracolumbar Disc Extrusions

Animals
In dogs with intervertebral disc extrusion (IVDE), the Glasgow Composite Measure Pain Scale—Short Form (GCMPS) and the Sharp and Wheeler Grading Scale (SWGS) are routinely used in the evaluation of pain (GCMPS) and neurological function (SWGS ...

Solid‐State Diffusion and Intermetallic Phase Formation in Roll‐Bonded Mg–Zn Composites With Kirigami‐Patterned Inlay

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mg–Zn composites with a thickness of 0.21 mm were fabricated using roll bonding of a kirigami‐patterned Mg alloy inlay within a Zn matrix. Thermal activation following this process led to the formation of tailored intermetallic structures, which provided the composite with enhanced flexural strength.

A Simplified Laminar Flow Model for the Pultrusion of Glass Fiber/Polyethylene Terephthalate Commingled Yarns

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A simplified thermoplastic pultrusion model is developed to predict thermal fields in glass fiber/polyethylene terephthalate (GF/PET) composites with reduced computational cost. By combining effective material homogenization, validation against literature data, and Gaussian‐process‐based optimization, the study reveals how heating limits, pulling speed,

Clearance rate of the mussel Mytilus galloprovincialis. I. Response to extreme chlorophyll ranges

Ciencias Marinas, 2009
Clearance rate (CR) measurements in Mytilus galloprovincialis were determined over 16 experiments in which the mussels were exposed to diets characterized by variable chlorophyll content (0.28–104.88 µg Chla L–1) in order to: (1) establish the lower ...

Rafting of Ni‐Based Superalloys Under Multiaxial Load as Understood by Phase‐Field Simulations and Critical Experiments

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Phase‐field simulations coupled with dislocation‐density‐based crystal plasticity modeling reproduce γ′ rafting behavior in single‐crystal Ni‐based superalloys under varied loading conditions. The model captures both macroscopic creep and microscopic morphology evolution, with results matching high‐temperature creep experiments.

Study on the Impact of Naphtha and Light Fuel Oil on Key Quality Indicators of Gasoline and Diesel

Fuels
The blending of naphtha and light fuel oil with gasoline and diesel during pipeline batch transportation poses risks of quality non-compliance. This study experimentally investigates the impact of these contaminants on key quality indicators to establish
