The contradiction Switch Tray between strength and electrical conductivity of pure aluminum (Al) hinders its wide applications in electrical engineering.In this study, an attempt was made to overcome this limitation by adding carbon nanotubes (CNTs) into Al matrix using friction stir processing (FSP) method.The results showed that CNTs were singly
Federal administrative data is a low-cost and low-burden data source for evidence-based policy making.By linking information from different surveys, or over time, researchers can achieve the sample size and variation needed for advanced econometric methods.However, the personally identifying information (PII) needed to link information means that t
Wildlife mortality caused by domestic cats is evident where free-roaming house cats are present in the tropical Andes region, a phenomenon for which there is a lack of scientific reports.Our goal is to present plausible range estimates of the potential avoidable number of birds killed by domestic cats in Colombia.We calculated estimates of Christma
This work promotes the foot rear right thesis that humans are naturally transhuman.In order to achieve this, we present in the first two sections some examples of technological devices assembled to human beings, and we critically review the assumptions and dichotomies on which the idea of human enhancement is based according to the ordinary transhu
Background: Advances in nanotechnology have lead to the development of a novel contrast media for Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) - the superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticle (SPIO).SPIO nanoparticles are used to image inflammation on the cellular level in various settings.This review covers the physicochemical characteristics of SPIO particles
