Suppression of Autoimmunity via Microbial Mimics of Altered Peptide Ligands
Molecular mimics of self-antigens can behave as altered peptide ligands and serve to ameliorate autoimmune disease. Analysis of experimental autoimmune encephalomyelitis with proteomic autoantibody microarrays...

Influence of temperature and strain on the amplitude-dependent internal friction of high-purity aluminum
The dislocation amplitude-dependent friction (ADIF) of high-purity (99.999%) polycrystalline aluminum is investigated in the temperature range 7–300K at vibrational strain amplitudes of 10−7–10−4 for samples in t...

Vehicles and aircraft on floating ice
Ice roads and ice runways are a common feature of Arctic and Antarctic transportation: cars are driven across floating ice, whether for pleasure or for economic reasons such as avoiding a circuitous route arou...

SIMS Depth Profiling of Si in GaAs
The controllable do** of GaAs layers by silicon, either by ion implantation or by incorporation during molecular beam epitaxial growth, is a critical step in III–V device fabrication. We have therefore under...

Depth Profiling of Dopants in Aluminum Gallium Arsenide
SIMS analyses of (AI,Ga)As layered structures are complicated by variations in secondary ion yields as the ratio of Al to Ga or Al to As changes. In addition, molecular species from impurities or major element...

Practical Limitations in Depth Profiling of Low Energy Implants into Amorphised and Crystalline Silicon
As lateral dimensions in semiconductor devices shrink, so must the depth dimensions, requiring accurate analysis of impurity concentrations with ever increasing depth resolution [1–2]. Measurement of impurity ...

Effect of acceleration on sea ice growth
Field studies1 and laboratory experiments2,3 have shown that sea currents align the crystallographic c axes in sea ice, illustrating the profound effect of fluid motion on the freezing of brine. The role of buoya...

Spherical indentation of tooth enamel
Spherical indentation measurements were made on enamel surfaces of intact human teeth. From the load versus depth of indentation curve Young's modulus was found to be typically 8.3×1010 Pa and the yield stress to...

Stress-strain curve for aluminium from a continuous indentation test
Continuous indentation tests using a 6.35 mm diameter steel ball were carried out on polycrystalline aluminium (99.995%) at forces up to 942 N (96 kg) and a total displacement of 65μm. On loading the results were...

A melting criterion based on the dilatation dependence of shear moduli
THE elastic instability theory of melting, proposed by Max Born1, held that melting in a crystalline material occurs when one of the elastic shear moduli vanishes, so that the material can no longer sustain an in...

Young's modulus of lignin from a continuous indentation test
The deformation of lignin in a continuous ball indentation test was almost entirely elastic up to a stress of 2.2 × 108 Pa (22 kg mm−2). The load versus depth of indentation curve of the lignin followed closely t...

Amplitude-independent mechanical dam** in alkali halides
At present there are two theories which are used to explain the observed amplitude-independent mechanical dam** (internal friction) in alkali halides. In the theory of Granato and Lücke it is assumed that th...

Small Angle X-Ray Scattering from MnS in Silicon Steels
In silicon steels, a dispersed MnS impurity phase is believed to pin grain boundaries, inhibit grain growth, and permit the desired secondary recrystallization for optimum orientation, grain size, and magnetic...
