    Microscopy techniques for determining water–cement (w/c) ratio in hardened concrete: a round-robin assessment

    Water to cement (w/c) ratio is usually the most important parameter specified in concrete design and is sometimes the subject of dispute when a shortfall in concrete strength or durability is an issue. However...

    Older adults’ outdoor walking and the built environment: does income matter?

    Our aim was to examine the association between Street Smart Walk Score® and self-reported outdoor walking among older Canadians, and to determine whether socioeconomic status modifies this association.

    Ruptured AAA: Suitability for Endovascular Repair is Associated with Lower Mortality Following Open Repair

    Perioperative mortality of open repair of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysms (rAAA) remains unacceptably high: 30-day mortality ≈40 %. This study aimed to assess, quantify, and determine the consequences of a...

    Clinical and economic burden of invasive fungal diseases in Europe: focus on pre-emptive and empirical treatment of Aspergillus and Candida species

    Invasive fungal diseases (IFDs) have been widely studied in recent years, largely because of the increasing population at risk. Aspergillus and Candida species remain the most common causes of IFDs, but other fun...

    Structure sensitivity in acetylene reactions over bimetallic Pd/W surfaces

    Acetylene reactions over a Pd/W(111) surface are found to exhibit size effects on the nanometer scale. Upon annealing 1 ML Pd/W(111), pyramidal facets are formed having bcc(211) faces with nanometer dimensions...

    Effect of stress concentration on magnetic flux leakage signals from blind-hole defects in stressed pipeline steel

    Stress-dependent magnetic flux leakage (MFL) signals of the normal surface component (radial) MFL signal from blind-hole defects in pipeline steel were investigated. Three different stress rigs with uniaxial s...

    Effects of Process Parameters on the Ablated Flux Characteristics During Pulsed-Laser Ablation of Lead Zucconate Titanate (PZT)}

    We have investigated the ablated flux characteristics of PbZrxTi1−xO3 as a function of deposition process parameters. The ablation-deposition rate, angular distribution, and type of ablated species are all affect...
