Studying the creep behaviour of strechable capacitive sensor with barium titanate silicone elastomer composite

In this paper, the creep behaviour of stretchable interdigital capacitive (IDC) large strain sensors is studied. A generalized Kelvin-Voigt (GKV) model is used to study the creep behaviour of the sensor's substrate material...

Translational arrest due to cytoplasmic redox stress delays adaptation to growth on methanol and heterologous protein expression in a typical fed-batch culture of <i>Pichia pastoris</i>

Results: We have followed a typical fed-batch induction regime for heterologous protein production under the control of the AOX1 promoter using bothmicroarray and metabolomic analysis. The genetic constructs involved 1 and 3...

High water vs. ad libitum water intake for autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease
BACKGROUND: Vasopressin stimulates cyst growth in autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) and is a key therapeutic target. Evaluation of high water intake as an alternative to pharmacological vasopressin blockade is...
The effect of barium titanate ceramic loading on the stress relaxation behavior of barium titanate-silicone elastomer composites

The stress relaxation behavior of barium titanate (BTO)-elastomer (Ecoflex) composites, as used in large strain sensors, is studied using the generalized Maxwell-Wiechert model. In this article, we examine the stress...

Why does using personal strengths at work increase employee engagement; who makes the most out of it; and how?

Engaging in behaviors that take advantage of one's personal strengths at work can promote employee flourishing in the workplace and mental health. Personal strengths use has thus gained increasing attention within...

Energy dependence of the positronium formation cross-section in argon
The positronium (Ps) formation cross-section, Q(Ps), for positron-argon interactions has been measured for incident positron energies from threshold to 60 eV, in an attempt to resolve the apparent discrepancy between earlier...
Poetics Contra Psychoanalysis
AW Freer
May 18, 2017
This essay argues that psychoanalytic literary criticism has largely failed because it has assumed that literature and psychoanalysis share common analytical ground. I contend that psychoanalytic approaches necessarily deform...
Shelley’s Vestimentary Poetics
AW Freer
May 19, 2017
The figures of veils in Shelley’s poetics have long been understood as an inconsistent and potentially confused contribution to a debate between representational and expressive accounts of language. However, Shelley’s veils are...

Did Negative Interest Rates Improve Bank Lending?

Since 2012 several central banks have introduced a negative interest rate policy (NIRP) aimed at boosting real spending by facilitating an increase in the supply and demand for bank loans. We employ a bank-level dataset...

Salient eyes deter conspecific nest intruders in wild jackdaws (Corvus monedula).
Animals often respond fearfully when encountering eyes or eye-like shapes. Although gaze aversion has been documented in mammals when avoiding group-member conflict, the importance of eye coloration during interactions between...

Engaging in behaviors that take advantage of one's personal strengths at work can promote employee flourishing in the workplace and mental health. Personal strengths use has thus gained increasing attention within...

The use and misuse of ratio and proportion exposure measures in food environment research.
BACKGROUND:The food stores within residential environments are increasingly investigated as a possible mechanism driving food behaviours and health outcomes. Whilst increased emphasis is being placed on the type of study designs...
