Dislocation densities have been measured in Ni3Al(Hf) single crystals after deformation at various temperatures and strains. In addition, effective and athermal stresses have been determined by strain dip tests. A model is proposed for the strength anomaly ...
Although twenty-first century neuroscience is a major scientific enterprise, advances in basic research have not yet translated into benefits for society. In this paper, I outline seven fundamental challenges that need to be overcome. First, neuroscience h ...
The binding of the arginine-rich motif (ARM) of HIV Rev protein to its high-affinity site in stem IIB in the Rev response element (RRE) initiates assembly of a ribonucleoprotein complex that mediates the export of essential, incompletely spliced viral tran ...
Generalized versions of the entropic (Hirschman-Beckner) and support (Elad-Bruckstein) uncertainty principle are presented for frames representations. Moreover, a sharpened version of the support inequality is obtained by introducing a generalization of th ...
Heteronuclear lanthanide terephthalate coordination polymers with the general chemical formula [Ln2-2xLn2x(bdc)3(H2O)4], for which bdc2- symbolizes benzene-1,4-dicarboxylate (or terephthalate) and Ln and Ln represent trivalent rare earth ions, were synthes ...
The population ageing implies an increasing need for support especially in terms of mobility. Actuated orthoses offer new possibilities to assist walking by compensating the diminished muscular force which occurs with age. In order to assist efficiently th ...
Sleep wake cycle is characterized by changes in neuronal network activity. However, for the last decade there is increasing evidence that neuroglial interaction may play a role in the modulation of sleep homeostasis and that astrocytes have a critical impa ...
PC7 belongs to the proprotein convertase family, whose members are implicated in the cleavage of secretory precursors. The in vivo function of PC7 is unknown. Herein, we find that the precursor proBDNF is processed into mature BDNF in COS-1 cells coexpress ...
We have fabricated a soft silicone structure to support the regeneration of a sciatic nerve. The device consists of 70 parallel (120 x 110 mu m(2)) channels through which axons extend and then reconnect to the muscles on the other side of the device. Throu ...
We report on InAlN/GaN heterostructure metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSHFETs) with an InAlN barrier layer of different compositions (x(InN) 13, 17, and 21%) and ZrO2 gate-insulator/passivation. Static measurements yielded higher drai ...
