Adhesive wear extension in metal fretting contacts was previously related to the partial pressure of oxygen gas a porous third body layer. Below threshold value, surface oxidation is no more possible and adhesive prevails inner part interface. The contact oxygenation concept (COC) allowing prediction dioxygen profile recently simulated for 2D analysis (i.e. 3D contact) using numerical Advection...

Identifying determinant(s) of protein thermostability is key for rational and data-driven protein engineering. By analyzing more than 130 pairs of mesophilic/(hyper)thermophilic proteins, we identified the quality (residue-wise energy) of hydrophobic interactions as a key factor for protein thermostability. This distinguishes our study from previous ones that investigated predominantly structur...

The REGISTER function is used in a Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) system primarily to associate a temporary contact address with an address-of-record. This contact is generally in the form of a Uniform Resource Identifier (URI), such as Contact: and is generally dynamic and associated with the IP address or hostname of the SIP User Agent (UA). The problem is that...

Grape cultivation plays a significant role in India, contributing to its economy, nutrition, and employment opportunities. Specifically, grape for wine production holds great importance, both economically terms of farmers' attitudes. This study was conducted Champhai town, Mizoram, explore the social psychological factors that influence acceptance large-scale making. Descriptive research design...

this research aims to explore the observance of syllable contact law (scl) in persian simple words. to achieve this aim, 4661 contacts were extracted from 9553 simple polysyllabic words. results show that in 45% of the syllable boundaries the sonority drops from the coda of the first syllable to the onset of the next one. also in 68% of the consonant contacts in pure persian words scl is observ...

Introduction This module is the seventh in a series of Extension materials designed to provide Extension agents, Certified Crop Advisers (CCAs), consultants, and producers with pertinent information on nutrient management issues. To make the learning ‘active,’ and to provide credits to CCAs, a quiz accompanies this module. In addition, realizing that there are many other good information source...

The study carried out an assessment of agricultural land management practices in food crops production among small scale farmers in Kwara Sate, Nigeria. Specifically, the study determined the socio economic characteristics of crop farmers in Kwara State; ascertained the cropping patterns common among them; highlighted the soil conservation methods adopted by the farmers; examined the relationsh...

Mechanical stretching of six proteins is studied through molecular dynamics simulations. The model is Go-like, with Lennard-Jones interactions at native contacts. Low-temperature unfolding scenarios are remarkably complex and sensitive to small structural changes. Thermal fluctuations reduce the peak forces and the number of metastable states during unfolding. The unfolding pathways also simpli...

this article is concerned with the static analysis of structural cables used in railway overheads. structural analysis computer program named ansys is used for analysis. two effects are considered in the analysis. first one is the bending behavior effect of cables. beam188 in addition to link10 and link180 is used to see the difference in case of additional bending effect. besides, link10 and l...
