Strengthening of edge prism dislocations in Mg-Zn by cross-core diffusion

William Curtin

The activation of prismatic slip in Mg and its alloys can be beneficial for deformation and forming. Experiments show that addition of Zn and Al solutes have a softening effect at/below room temperature, attributed to solutes facilitating basal-prism-basal ...

A review of time reversal-based methods applied to fault location in power networks

Mario Paolone, Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Zhaoyang Wang, Reza Razzaghi

Electromagnetic time reversal (EMTR)-based methods have been applied to the problem of fault location in power networks since 2012. Over the past decade, considerable theoretical investigations have led to a continuous improvement of the EMTR method in ter ...

Ecosystem Scenarios as Environmental Futures - Implications for Participatory Framework Designs Integrating Social Capital Formation and Natural Capital Preservation

Charlotte Gisèle Weil

In integrated ecosystem assessment projects, scenarios provide alternative images of environmental futures as orientation knowledge for opinion-forming and decision-making. Participatory scenario frameworks provide the methodological basis for ecosystem sc ...

Tone-mapping requirements in real-time videos for studying the dynamism of views-out in virtual reality

Marilyne Andersen, Caroline Karmann, Stephen William Wasilewski, Yunjoung Cho

Current view representation methods in VR predominantly rely on static photographs and tone-mapping operators without temporal variations, limiting the exploration of dynamic features in a view. This study presents an alternative workflow to capture dynami ...

Climatic and Economic Background Determine the Disparities in Urbanites’ Expressed Happiness during the Summer Heat

Gabriele Manoli, Rui Yin

Climate-change-induced extreme weather events increase heat-related mortality and health risks for urbanites, which may also affect urbanites’ expressed happiness (EH) and well-being. However, the links among EH, climate, and socioeconomic factors remain u ...

Environment rather than breed or body site shapes the skin bacterial community of healthy sheep as revealed by metabarcoding

Christof Holliger, Alexander Mathis, Emmanuelle Rohrbach, Laetitia Janine Andrée Cardona

Background: The skin is inhabited by a variety of micro-organisms, with bacteria representing the predominant taxon of the skin microbiome. In sheep, the skin bacterial community of healthy animals has been addressed in few studies, only with culture-based ...

Nonlinear Frequency Conversion in III-Nitride Doubly Resonant Photonic Crystal Cavities

Jun Wang

Nonlinear frequency conversion processes, such as second-harmonic generation (SHG) and spontaneous parametric down-conversion (SPDC), are essential in many applications, including the generation of entangled photons. It's desirable to enhance these process ...

The Pristine survey - XXI. Exploring the metal-poor boundary with ESPaDoNS

Pascale Jablonka

In this paper, we study high-resolution spectra of 19 stars that have metallicity estimates below -3.5 using at least two metallicity-sensitive photometric indices based on Pristine photometry. The purpose is to understand what kind of stars populate this ...
