The influence of the atomic order on the martensitic transformation entropy change has been studied in a Ni-Mn-In-Co metamagnetic shape memory alloy through the evolution of the transformation temperatures under high-temperature quenching and post-quench annealing thermal treatments. It is confirmed that the entropy change evolves as a consequence of the variations on the degree of L21 atomic o...

The present study aims to investigate the numerous factors influencing Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated genetic transformation of Chinese cabbage (Brassica rapa ssp. pekinensis). Factors affecting transformation efficiency, such as age of explants, Agrobacterium concentration, and effect of acetosyringone, pre-cultivation, infection and co-cultivation time of Agrobacterium were examined. The ...

Rapidly growing embryogenic calli of different ages derived from the scutellum of mature seed embryos of indica rice (Rasi) and mature seeds of japonica rice (Taipei 309) was biolistically transformed. Plasmid pUCGUS containing the uidA gene encoding -glucuronidase was used to optimize transformation conditions using various combinations of helium pressure, target distance and gap distance. Pla...

The existence of an HCP phase in FCC-type high-entropy alloys can improve the alloy’s mechanical properties. In many cases, is induced by deformation. present work, FCC to transition was detected during cooling Co1.5CrFeMnNi0.5 and Co1.75CrFeMnNi0.25 alloys. Therefore, arc-melted annealed CoxCrFeMnNi2−x (x = 0.25–1.75) that were then subjected long-term vacuuming investigated using XRD, DSC, HT...

Public administrations are investing in the digital transformation of their external services and internal administrative processes. More more, they using co-production approaches include different types stakeholders into these transformative processes to increase service quality generate public value. In order understand how is applied, we demonstrate Denmark has digitally transformed its deli...

Many studies highlight positive outcomes from curriculum co-creation including its transformational potential for students. In this paper, we explore how transforms students, drawing on Johansson and Felten’s (2014. Transforming Students: Fulfilling the Promise of Higher Education. Baltimore, MD: Johns Hopkins University Press) theoretical framework four factors student transformation: (1) disr...
