Geological observations show that fault zone composition varies and often accommodates a mixture of brittle ductile deformation. There is growing evidence the nature this may play an important role in determining whether creeps steadily or slides slow slip events (SSEs) and/or fast earthquakes. Using numerical experiments finite thickness, we explore how ratio to material absolute friction chan...

Solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) are promising candidates to circumvent flammability concerns of liquid electrolytes. However, enhancing energy densities by thinning SSE layers and enabling scalable...

OBJECTIVE This study aimed to assess the efficacy and safety of flibanserin, a serotonin receptor 1A agonist/serotonin receptor 2A antagonist, in postmenopausal women with hypoactive sexual desire disorder (HSDD). METHODS Naturally postmenopausal women with HSDD received flibanserin 100 mg once daily at bedtime (n = 468) or placebo (n = 481) for 24 weeks. Co-primary endpoints were changes fro...

The northern Hikurangi subduction margin hosts slow slip events (SSEs), which are exceptionally shallow (<15 km). sedimentary sequence on the incoming plate is therefore representative of fault material where SSEs will take place once they enter zone. Knowledge about frictional behavior these sediments required to know lithologies capable hosting SSEs, and what mechanisms causing them. Friction...

this study was conducted with the objective of identifying the major determinants of loan repayment in small scale enterprises (sses) with particular reference to sses in one of kenya’s most dynamic informal business hub, kariobangi division in nairobi. in order to achieve this objective, primarily data were collected from 50 randomly selected respondents by using questionnaires. descriptive st...

Introduction Anthrax is an acute especially dangerous infectious disease of animals and humans. Bacillus anthracis is a potential bioterrorism tool. In Ukraine, there are favorable natural conditions for the spread of anthrax. There are 13.5 thousand of constantly anthrax-troubled points. Anthrax epidemic situation in Ukraine could be characterized as unstable. Because of the continuing reform ...

This review summarizes the computational studies of lithium and sodium sulfide-type glassy solid electrolytes, provides our understandings challenges potential future developments in study new SSEs.

The ability to process electronic information of multiple security classifications has long been a goal of warfighters. The process of Fusing National information at levels above Top Secret (TS) with the tactical picture being generated onboard the ship has been greatly improved in recent years, but remains primarily a manual one with the onboard Ship Sensitive Equipment Space (SSES) and off-bo...

Abstract Garnet-type oxide is one of the most promising solid-state electrolytes (SSEs) for lithium-metal batteries (SSLMBs). However, Li dendrite formation in garnet oxides obstructs further development SSLMBs seriously. Here, we report a high-performance by using AlN as sintering additive and an anode interface layer. with high thermal conductivity can promote activity oxides, resulting large...
