TL;DR: In this paper, a dual-curing process combining the sol-gel reaction with the UV-induced polymerization technique was used to obtain organic-inorganic hybrid coatings by starting from bisphenol A ethoxylate (15-EO/phenol) dimethacrylate (BEMA, as organic network former), methacryloyloxypropyl-trimethoxysilane (MEMO, as coupling agent) and tetraethoxylane (TEOS, as inorganic silica network precursor).

TL;DR: In this article, collisionless magnetic reconnection in a two-dimensional plasma is analyzed, using a twofluid model where electron mass and pressure effects are important, and numerical simulations show the formation of current and vorticity layers along two branches crossing at the stagnation point of the plasma flow.
Abstract: Collisionless magnetic reconnection in a two dimensional plasma is analyzed, using a two-fluid model where electron mass and pressure effects are important. Numerical simulations show the formation of current and vorticity layers along two branches crossing at the stagnation point of the plasma flow. These structures are interpreted on the basis of the Hamiltonian Casimirs (conserved fields) of the fluid plasma model.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the variation of the ionic conductivity as a function of the composition x is investigated in the temperature range 150-600 K. They showed that the variations of ionic motion process in the bulk of the material can be explained by structural considerations, and that the mobility of the Na+ ions in these materials seems to be mostly influenced by the size of the bottlenecks through which the ions have to pass.

TL;DR: To assess the issue of muscle echo intensity reliability and to investigate the relationship between Muscle echo intensity and size, shape and location of the region of interest (ROI) used for echo intensity quantification, a database of echo intensity measurements is analyzed.
Abstract: Objective: To assess the issue of muscle echo intensity reliability and to investigate the relationship between muscle echo intensity and size, shape and location of the region of interest (ROI) used for echo intensity quantification. Methods: Ultrasonographic scans of the following five muscles were acquired in twenty healthy subjects: biceps brachii, rectus femoris, vastus lateralis, tibialis anterior and medial gastrocnemius. Muscle echo intensity was quantified in each scan. Results: We found that the agreement between the different sized ROIs considered in each scan ranged from moderate (ICC: 054) to high (ICC: 086) and that the echo intensity consistency between equal sized ROIs of the three scans ranged from low (ICC: 042) to very high (091). The echo intensity of tibialis anterior and rectus femoris was different between different sized, shaped and located ROIs. The echo intensity of biceps brachii and tibialis anterior was higher than that of all other muscles, and females had higher echo intensity than males. Moreover, the muscle echo intensity was positively correlated with the subcutaneous layer thickness in three of five muscles. Conclusion: The echo intensity reliability was function of the ROI size. Muscle and gender variability in echo intensity was likely due to differences in fibrous and adipose tissue content and distribution. Possible explanations for the observed correlations between muscle echo intensity and subcutaneous layer thickness include the dependence of both variables on total body adiposity or the direct dependence of the extent of intramuscular fat on the amount of subcutaneous fat.

TL;DR: In this paper, a standardized methodology for carrying out joint testing has been established consistent with the small volume samples mandated by neutron irradiation testing, and significant progress made towards identifying and processing irradiation-tolerant joining methods for nuclear-grade SiC.
