in this research work, it was planned to study influences of hydrothermal treatment temperature, holding time and press temperature on wood density, spring back, moisture absorption as well as dimensional stability of combined-hydro-thermo-mechanically modified poplar wood. wood blocks were treated hydrothermally at temperatures 120, 150 and 180°c for holding time of 0, 30 and 90 min. afterward...

objective: the aim of this study was to evaluate the dimensional stability of casts made from an alginate impression material poured immediately and stored after specific periods. materials and methods: the common alginate used in iran (super; iralgin, golchai co., tehran, iran) was tested. a master model was mounted on a special device and used to obtain the impressions. these impressions were...

The temperature stability of field induced uniaxial anisotropy KU was investigated by thermomagnetic treatments of Co1−xFex 89Zr7B4 amorphous ribbons after field annealing below and above the crystallization temperature. We conclude: 1 Field annealing treatments are necessary to properly investigate the temperature stability of KU, 2 KU of field crystallized alloys exhibit improved temperature ...

The anomalous temperature dependence of protein folding has received considerable attention. Here we show that the temperature dependence of the folding of protein L becomes extremely simple when the effects of temperature on protein stability are corrected for; the logarithm of the folding rate is a linear function of 1/T on constant stability contours in the temperature-denaturant plane. This...

Using the quark mass densityand temperature dependent model, we have studied the thermodynamical properties and the stability of strangelet at finite temperature. The temperature, charge and strangeness dependences on the stability of strangelet are investigated. We find that the stable strangelets are only occured in the high strangeness and high negative charge region. PACS number: 12.39.Ki, ...
