CARBON NANOTUBES/ALUMINUM INTERFACE STRUCTURE AND ITS EFFECTS ON THE STRENGTH AND ELECTRICAL CONDUCTIVITY OF ALUMINUM

Carbon nanotubes/aluminum interface structure and its effects on the strength and electrical conductivity of aluminum

The contradiction 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 distributed

Acute myeloid leukemia drug tolerant persister cells survive chemotherapy by transiently increasing plasma membrane rigidity, that also increases their sensitivity to immune cell killing

Resistance to chemotherapy remains a major hurdle to the cure of Acute Myeloid Leukemia (AML) patients.Recent studies indicate a minority of malignant cells, NAVY BEANS termed drug-tolerant persisters (DTPs), stochastically upregulate stress pathways to evade cell death upon acute exposure to chemotherapy without acquiring new genetic mutations.Thi

Mentaculus Laws and Metaphysics

The Safety Glasses laws of nature are central to our understanding of the world.And while there is often broad agreement about the technical formulations of the laws, there can be sharp disagreement about the metaphysical nature of the laws.For instance, the Newtonian laws of nature can be stated and analyzed by appealing to a set of possible world
