Equation of state of liquid mercury to 520 K and 7 GPa from acoustic velocity measurements

Ultrafast acoustics measurements on liquid mercury have been performed at high pressure and temperature in a diamond anvil cell using picosecond acoustic interferometry. We extract the density of mercury from adiabatic sound velocities using a numerical it ...

Unraveling the inhibitory effects of acetate on ethanol production in CEN.PK

Vassily Hatzimanikatis, Ljubisa Miskovic, Keng Cher Soh, Anirikh Chakrabarti

In this study, we used the ORACLE (Optimization and Risk Analysis of Complex Living Entities)[1] framework to study the impact of extracellular acetic acid on the S. cerevisiae metabolism with the aim to improve ethanol production in the presence of this i ...

A robust method for inverse transport modelling of atmospheric emissions using blind outlier detection

Martin Vetterli, Benjamin Bejar Haro, Marta Martinez-Camara

Emissions of harmful substances into the atmosphere are a serious environmental concern. In order to understand and predict their effects, it is necessary to estimate the exact quantity and timing of the emissions, from sensor measurements taken at differe ...

First-principles insights into the structure of the incipient magnesium oxide and its instability to decomposition: Oxygen chemisorption to Mg(0001) and thermodynamic stability

Michael Frederick Francis

In this paper, a detailed density functional theory analysis of oxygen binding to Mg(0001) and subsequent clustering is presented. Oxygen monomer adsorption to Mg(0001) is demonstrated to be subsurface. It is shown that magnesium mediates an attractive oxy ...

ACCENT ADAPTATION USING SUBSPACE GAUSSIAN MIXTURE MODELS

Petr Motlicek, Philip Neil Garner

This paper investigates employment of Subspace Gaussian Mixture Models (SGMMs) for acoustic model adaptation towards different accents for English speech recognition. The SGMMs comprise globally-shared and state-specific parameters which can efficiently be ...

Irish post-primary students' attitudes towards ethnic minorities

Roland John Tormey

The changing ethnic make-up of Irish society has impacted upon schools. Existing, largely qualitative studies have highlighted mixed attitudes towards ethnic minorities. Literature has also focused on the role of the state in articulating a discourse that ...

Academic Cooperation to Foster Research and Advocacy Competences in the Occupied Palestinian Territory (West Bank)

Martin Schuler, François Golay, Marc Soutter, Claudio Magalhaes Carneiro, Béatrice Métaireau

Palestinians living in the West Bank, a territory occupied by the State of Israel according to International Law, face a deprived access to land and a limited ability to move freely which pertains to the presence of Israeli settlements and other infrastruc ...

Identification of cyclic and anisotropic behaviour of ODS steels tubes

Roland Logé

In this paper, an elastic plastic behaviour model based on internal state variables is investigated. The final aim is to describe the mechanical stress-strain cyclic response of oxide dispersion strengthened (ODS) steels during the cold pilgering process. ...

Friction force: from mechanics to thermodynamics

Christian Gruber, Christian Ferrari

We study some mechanical problems in which a friction force is acting on a system. Using the fundamental concepts of state, time evolution and energy conservation, we explain how to extend Newtonian mechanics to thermodynamics. We arrive at the two laws of ...
