Dislocation jamming and andrade creep.

We simulate the glide motion of an assembly of interacting dislocations under the action of an external shear stress and show that the associated plastic creep relaxation follows Andrade's law. Our results indicate that Andrade creep in plastically deforming crystals involves the correlated motion of dislocation structures near a dynamic transition separating a flowing from a jammed phase. Simu...

C. Andrade in his letter published in the Indian Journal of Psychiatry Vol 38, No.2 Page 117, has suggested that non responsiveness to ECT should also be considered an additional pre-requisite for patients who are to receive clozapine. For the reference of the readers of Indian Journal of Psychiatry, I would like to mention the views of some of the foreign authors on this issue. The clinical re...

This Recommendation covers the description of nondestructive electrochemical test methods for the estimation in large size concrete structures of the instantaneous corrosion current density, icorr, expressed in A/cm, by means of the so-called Polarization Resistance technique, Rp, in order to assess the condition of embedded steel reinforcement related to its corrosion. The values of icorr, can...

Type I primary neuropathic amyloidosis (Andrade, portuguese).

The authors present a review of 21 cases with the diagnosis of type I amyloid neuropathy based on epidemiological data, clinical evolution and histopathological findings. They call attention to the possibility of cranial nerves involvement (hyposmia, diplopia, masseterian hypotrophy, peripheral facial paralysis, hypoacusis, dysphonia, laryngeal paralysis, dysphagia, and trapezium muscle hypotro...
