Two types of softening detected in X-ray afterglows of Swift bursts: internal and external shock origins?

, 2008
The softening process observed in the steep decay phase of early X-ray afterglows of Swift bursts has remained a puzzle since its discovery. The softening process can also be observed in the later phase of the bursts and its cause has also been unknown ...

Influence of cold storage time on the softening prediction in Spring Bright nectarines [PDF]

, 2010
With Time-resolved Reflectance Spectroscopy (TRS) the maturity of nectarines at harvest can be assessed by measuring the absorption coefficient at 670 nm (µa 670) in the fruit flesh.

Postharvest Properties of Ultra-Late Maturing Peach Cultivars and Their Attributions to Melting Flesh (M) Locus: Re-evaluation of M Locus in Association With Flesh Texture

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020
The postharvest properties of two ultra-late maturing peach cultivars, “Tobihaku” (TH) and “Daijumitsuto” (DJ), were investigated. Fruit were harvested at commercial maturity and held at 25°C. TH exhibited the characteristics of normal melting flesh (MF)

Anisotropic softening of collective charge modes in the vicinity of critical doping in a doped Mott insulator [PDF]

, 2007
Momentum resolved inelastic resonant x-ray scattering is used to map the evolution of charge excitations over a large range of energies, momenta and doping levels in the electron doped Mott insulator class Nd$_{2-x}$Ce$_x$CuO$_4$.

A one dimensional variational model of superelasticity for shape memory alloys

Vietnam Journal of Mechanics, 2017
In this paper we propose a variational framework for the modeling of superelasticity in shape memory alloys with softening behavior. This model is valid for a class of standard rate-independent materials with a single internal variable. The quasi-static

A pilot study to measure dynamic elasticity of the bladder during urodynamics [PDF]

, 2017
AIMS: Previous studies using isolated strips of human detrusor muscle identified adjustable preload tension, a novel mechanism that acutely regulates detrusor wall tension. The purpose of this investigation was to develop a method to identify a correlate

Mechanically Robust, Softening Shape Memory Polymer Probes for Intracortical Recording

Micromachines, 2020
While intracortical microelectrode arrays (MEAs) may be useful in a variety of basic and clinical scenarios, their implementation is hindered by a variety of factors, many of which are related to the stiff material composition of the device.

Low waste technology for mine waters treatment using lime and aluminum coagulants

Chemistry Journal of Moldova: General, Industrial and Ecological Chemistry, 2023
In this paper the process of reagent desalination of mineralized mine waters was studied. The peculiarity of mine waters in many regions of Ukraine is that, along with hardness ions, they also contain sulphates in fairly high concentrations.
