Effects of nanosilica on the calcium silicate hydrates in Portland cement–fly ash systems
Cementitious materials have a complex chemistry and naturally form nanostructures in the hydration process, a network of calcium silicate hydrates. It is considered that nanoparticles such as nanosilica could act as a pozzolanic...

Metabolic Reprogramming and Oncogenesis
The process of tumorigenesis can be described by a series of molecular features, among which alteration of cellular metabolism has recently emerged. This metabolic rewiring fulfills the energy and biosynthetic demands of fast...
A visual model for predicting chromatic banding artifacts
Quantization of images containing low texture regions, such
as sky, water or skin, can produce banding artifacts. As the bit-depth of each color channel is decreased, smooth image gradients are transformed into perceivable...
