Tellurium, semimetallic chemical element in the oxygen group (Group 16 [VIa] of the periodic table), closely allied with the element selenium in chemical and physical properties.
However, designing materials with strong SOC in realistic materials has been quite straightforward because it simply links to the atomic mass of the constituent elements. Therefore, the candidates for spin-orbit active materials have mostly been limited to solids with heavy elements such as Bi, Sb,...
In design process, utilizing machine tools, also known as deformation tools, involves high material costs while also requiring conditions of high resistance to deformation. The reduction of the mass of the parts, i.e. the reduction of the costs with the materials, from the composition of the t...
The numerical background of the FEHM computer code can be traced to the early 1970s when it was used to simulate geothermal and hot dry rock reservoirs. The primary use over a number of years was to assist in the understanding of flow fields and mass transport in the saturated and unsatura...
Among all the level set based non-conforming mesh methods, the IBM is possibly the most straightforward approach to deal with the problems at hand. In short, the IBM consists in using the first layer of nodes laying inside the analysed bodies to impose the fluid essential BCs [31]. This ...
Using the developed method, a number of elements were successfully quantified in certified reference material (CRM) from apple leaves, in seeds of Arabidopsis and in isolated barley root tissues. In the barley root tissue fractions, with estimated weights as low as 400 ng, K, Mn, P and Mg ...
Submarine hydrothermal sulfide ores occur at mid-ocean ridges, intra-oceanic arcs and in back-arc basins associated with host rocks of highly variable composition. Pyrite is the dominant sulfide mineral in most samples presented within this study, and thus the trace element composition of pyrite may...
“MFAssign” functions track how many “paths” can be used to assign each MF and if a single mass has multiple MF. By default, the functions will choose the MF that has the largest number of paths that intercept with it. For example, if a single mass has two possible MF and one ha...
along with martensitic transformation8. The prerequisite for work hardening is dislocation production and accumulation. However, the higher the yield strength, the more difficult it will be to produce and even store dislocations in microstructures. This becomes pronounced particularly in alloys with an ...
It is known that the main-group metals and their related materials show poor catalytic activity due to a broadened single resonance derived from the interaction of valence orbitals of adsorbates with the broad sp-band of main-group metals. However, Mg cofactors existing in enzymes are extremely ...
