Phase transformation induced distortions in red gold alloys

Margaux Nathalie Dominique Larcher

Red gold alloys owe their warm and attractive colour to the combination of gold and copper atoms. Thanks to their good mechanical properties and resistance to corrosion, red gold alloys are used in luxury industries as well as in dentistry. Around the equi ...

Use of indentation tests to study the influence of confining stress on rock fragmentation by a TBM cutter

Jian Zhao, Lijun Yin

This paper explores the influence of the confining stress on rock fragmentation under the cutter of tunnel boring machine (TBM) by indentation test. Acoustic emission (AE) system was employed for real-time monitoring the rock fragmentation process during t ...

Rock fragmentation mechanism by TBM cutter and TBM tunnelling under stressed grounds

Lijun Yin

With the advance of technology, TBMs are becoming more versatile and TBM tunnelling has become a common tunnelling method. As TBM tunnelling is a special excavation method depending on the interaction between machine and rock mass under a certain geologica ...

Neurobiological Mechanisms Involved in the Establishment and Maintenance of Dominance Hierarchies and its Modulation by Stress in Rats

Maria del Carmen Sandi Perez, Marjan Timmer

Stress can have a strong and long lasting effect on the establishment and maintenance of dominance hierarchies in rats. When two rats of a pair have not been stressed (non-stressed pair) before a first social encounter, they establish a dominance hierarchy ...
