Mechanical stress combined with alloying as controlled by CO dissociation is investigated for the control of methanation activity. CO dissociation over strained Ni(211), Ni3Fe(211), and NiFe(112) is investigated. A continuous 0.62 eV range of CO reaction e ...
The local application of mechanical stress in piezoelectric materials gives rise to boundaries across which the electric polarization changes. Polarization charges appear along such polar discontinuities and the ensuing electric fields drive a charge recon ...
KAP1 is an enigmatic regulatory protein, first described some twenty years ago, shown to be involved in multiple and diverse cellular functions. Specifically, it mediates tasks critical to cell growth and differentiation, pluripotency, apoptosis, gene sile ...
The greenhouse gas and energy carrier methane is produced on Earth mainly by methanogenic archaea. In the hydrogenotrophic methanogenic pathway the reduction of one CO2 to one methane molecule requires four molecules of H-2 containing eight electrons. Four ...
The ductility and time-dependent recovery of a ductile acrylic adhesive were investigated in this work. The quasi-static true tensile and compressive strain behaviors were examined at different strain rates, taking large deformations into account. Yield st ...
In this study, the hot deformation behavior of an Al-1% Mg alloy with very coarse initial grain size was investigated in terms of flow stress evolution and grain refinement mechanism. The large grain size was employed to study the traditional continuous dy ...
