Gastric cancer (GC) is the second cause of cancer related death in the world and has a heterogenous geographic pattern of distribution (Vannella et al., 2012). Different factors have been proposed in the pathogenesis of GC including helicobacter pylori (HP) infection (Zheng et al., 2014), smoking (Zhong et al., 2012), diet (Lin et al., 2014) and family history (Mansour-Ghanaei et al., 2012). GC...

In materials, the nature of the strain-stress relationship, which is fundamental to their properties, is determined by both the linear and nonlinear elastic responses. Whereas the linear response can be measured by various techniques, the nonlinear behavior is nontrivial to probe and to reveal its nature. Here, we report the methodology of time-resolved Kikuchi diffraction for mapping the (non)...
