Ethylene-regulation of fruit softening and softening-related genes in peach [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2006
To investigate the role of ethylene in peach fruit softening during ripening, stony hard peach fruit, in which ethylene production is suppressed during ripening, were treated with various concentrations of ethylene. There was no noticeable decrease in flesh firmness without ethylene treatment, while applied ethylene, in the range 0.1-100 microl l(-1 ...

Study of fractional softening in multi-stage hot deformation

, 1998
In this paper, the softening behaviour of a medium-carbon steel under hot working conditions in multi-stage compression is\ud presented. Continuous and interrupted compression tests were performed in the temperature range 800–1100 degrees Celsius at ...

High‐Temperature Nanoindentation of Metals: Assessing Thermal Drift, Frame Compliance, and Chemical Composition Effects on the Reported Mechanical Properties

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Do not let thermal drift and instrument artifacts deceive high‐temperature nanoindentation results. We compare classical Oliver–Pharr and automatic image recognition analyses across steels and a Ni alloy to quantify these effects. Accounting for artifacts reveals systematic softening with temperature, while Cr and Ni additions boost resistance ...

Strength softening models of soil and its application in rainfall-induced landslide simulation

, 2013
In this study, strength softening models are developed for exploring rainfall-induced landslide mechanism based on Mohr-Coulomb strength theory with both saturation degree and temporal evolution into consideration.

Toward Knowledge‐Based Workflows: A Semantic Approach to Atomistic Simulations for Mechanical and Thermodynamic Properties

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Knowledge‐based atomistic workflows are presented for mechanical and thermodynamic properties. By coupling modular simulations with ontology‐aligned metadata and provenance, Fe case studies on elastic behavior, defects, thermal properties, and Hall–Petch strengthening reveal how FAIR, queryable, and reusable simulation data can be generated. Mechanical

Natural Bone‐Derived Ceramic Scaffolds Functionalized with Chitosan‐Gold, Chitosan‐Magnesium, and Chitosan‐Zinc for Enhanced Antibacterial Activity

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study reports the development of antibacterial ceramic scaffolds derived from natural bovine bone. The bones were processed through sequential boiling and hydrogen peroxide treatment to remove organic matter, producing porous, mineral‐rich scaffolds.

Discontinuous modelling of strain localisation and failure

, 2001
The computational simulation of failure in solids poses many challenges. A proper understanding of how structures respond under loading, both before and past the peak load, is important for safe and economical constructions.

Molecular Dynamics Studies of Shape Memory Polymers: From Bead–Spring Models to Atomistic Simulations

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Coarse‐grained (left) and atomistic (right) models of the shape memory polymer ESTANE ETE 75DT3 are shown schematically. The two representations bridge molecular detail and mesoscopic description. Both models capture shape memory behavior, linking segmental mobility and conformational relaxation of anisotropic chains to macroscopic recovery, and ...

RETRACTED: Enhancing the Shelf Life of Firm-Fleshed Honey Peaches Using 1-MCP and Laser Microporous Film Packaging

Horticulturae
Peach trees (Prunus persica L. Batsch) produce climacteric fruits that are prone to senescence and softening after harvesting, and they are susceptible to external pathogens that cause rot and deterioration.
