Women under high pressure

High performance under pressure.

Nanomaterials under high-pressure.

The use of high-pressure for the study and elaboration of homogeneous nanostructures is critically reviewed. Size effects, the interaction between nanostructures and guest species or the interaction of the nanosystem with the pressure transmitting medium are emphasized. Phase diagrams and the possibilities opened by the combination of pressure and temperature for the elaboration of new nanomate...

Breathing under high ambient pressure.

LORD, GEORGE P., GEORGE F. BOND, AND KARL E. SCHAEFER. Breathing under high ambient pressure. J. Appl. Physiol. 21 (6): 1833-1838. 1966.—The acute effect of high ambient pressure on expiratory airflow was studied in healthy adult males in the ambient pressure range from 1.0 to 7.0 atmospheres absolute pressure (Ata) using a hyperbaric chamber. Changes in flow were assessed with the maximum expi...

Boron under Pressure: Phase Diagram and Novel High-pressure Phase

Boron has a unique chemistry, responsible for remarkable complexities even in the pure element. I review some of the history of the discovery of this element, and recent surprises found in boron under pressure. I discuss the recent discovery of a new high-pressure phase, γ-B28, consisting of icosahedral B12 clusters and B2 pairs in a NaCl-type arrangement: (B2)(B12), and displaying a significan...
