FAILURE MODES OF PVD COATINGS IN MOLTEN AL-ALLOY CONTACT

FAILURE MODES OF PVD COATINGS IN MOLTEN Al-ALLOY CONTACT

This paper deals with a study of the failure mode of thin PVD coatings in alternated contact with molten aluminum alloy.CrN and ZrN monolayer coatings deposited through cathodic arc evaporation were used.The coatings morphology was assessed by Ship Model SEM and their mechanical properties evaluated by nanohardness test performed at room temperatur

Early leucine programming on protein utilization and mTOR signaling by DNA methylation in zebrafish (Danio rerio)

Abstract Background Early nutritional programming affects a series of metabolism, growth and development in mammals.Fish also exhibit the developmental plasticity by early nutritional programming.However, little is known about the effect of early amino acid programming on growth and metabolism.Methods In the present study, zebrafish (Danio rerio) w

An evaluation of random forest based input variable selection methods for one month ahead streamflow forecasting

Abstract In the development of data-driven models for streamflow forecasting, choosing appropriate input variables Shaving Creams is crucial.Although random forest (RF) has been successfully applied to streamflow forecasting for input variable selection (IVS), comparative analysis of different random forest-based IVS (RF-IVS) methods is yet absent.
