Phyllomanganate vein-infillings in faulted and Al-poor regoliths of the New Caledonian ophiolite: periodic and sequential crystallization of Ni-asbolane, Alk-birnessite and H-birnessite

Mineralogy, chemistry and spatial distribution of phyllomanganates, found in abundance at the bottom of thick Ni-laterite deposits, were established on dislocated vein-infillings showing banded and fibrous patterns (i.e. colloforms with rows of tiny boxwor ...

Characterization of Fly Ashes by a Novel Method in the Scanning Electron Microscope

Karen Scrivener, Cyrille Dunant, Mohsen Ben Haha, Pawel Tadeusz Durdzinski

In this paper, we show a new technique to characterize fly ashes using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Chemical composition of millions of points is measured by SEM-energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and plotted in a ternary frequency plot. This new ...

Towards a Passive Adaptive Planar Foot with Ground Orientation and Contact Force Sensing for Legged Robots

Laura Isabel Paez Coy, Marco Hutter, Klajd Lika

Adapting to the ground enables stable footholds in legged locomotion by exploiting the structure of the terrain. On that account, we present a passive adaptive planar foot with three rotational degrees of freedom that is lightweight and thus suited for hig ...

Egocentric Mapping of Body Surface Constraints

Ronan Boulic, Eray Molla, Henrique Galvan Debarba

The relative location of human body parts often materializes the semantics of on-going actions, intentions and even emotions expressed, or performed, by a human being. However, traditional methods of performance animation fail to correctly and automaticall ...

Competition of two Sulfurospirillum populations for tetrachloroethene

Géraldine Florence Buttet

Tetrachloroethene (PCE) represents a major groundwater pollutant. Some bacteria are able to use PCE as electron acceptor in an anaerobic respiration process called organohalide respiration (OHR). An anaerobic enrichment culture (named SL2-PCEb) consisting ...

Potential exposure routes and accumulation kinetics for poly- and perfluorinated alkyl compounds for a freshwater amphipod: Gammarus spp. (Crustacea)

Gammarids were exposed to sediments from a deposition site located on the Rhone River (France) downstream of a fluoropolymer manufacturing plant. Gammarids accumulated to various extents four long-chain perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids (PFCAs) from C-9 to C ...

Relative Proportioning Method for Controlled Low-Strength Material

Ricardo Javier Serpell Carriquiry

Controlled low-strength material (CLSM) mixture design remains a trial-and-error process. A new approach using relative proportioning of the constituent materials instead of prescribed mass contents is proposed. Relative proportions allow for independent a ...

Metalation of 2-Heterosubstituted Naphthalenes at the 1- or 3-Position: Factors That May Determine the Regiochemistry

Upon metalation and subsequent electrophilic trapping, 2-fluoronaphthalene inevitably gives rise to regioisomeric mixtures in varying proportions, whereas 2-(trifluoromethyl) naphthalene undergoes deprotonation either at the 1- or the 3-position, depending ...

Variance Stabilizing the Difference of Two Binomial Proportions

Stephan Morgenthaler, Robert Staudte

The article studies estimation of Delta = p(1) - p(2), the difference of two proportions p(1) and p(2), based on two independent Binomial experiments of size n(1) and n(2). The usual estimator, the difference between the two sample proportions, is variance ...
