In this communication,we propose a sustainable way to produce high entropy alloys from alloy scraps called Alloy mixing.We successfully demonstrate method using near equimolar CrCuFeMnNi HEA. (304L stainless steel, Nichrome 80 and electrical wire grade Copper) obtained various sources were melted together vacuum arc melting along with minor additions of Mn Cr achieve the equiatomic composition....

blrds, and likewise the Polychsetes, or bristle^orms, which live in the sand or slime on the bed of the sea or tidal rivers, provide food for vast numbers of fish, these worms indeed being s?nietimes used as baits by fishermen. And j^ore directly than this, man sometimes uses hese creatures for food; Professor Percy Moore Pennsylvania University has informed us hat he has seen Italians engaged ...

A number of animal diseases can be transmitted to pigs via meat if the animals are fed scraps of meat imported from infected countries. For this reason, garbage feeding of pigs is regulated in many countries. The major porcine diseases recognised as being significant for this transmission pathway are foot and mouth disease, African swine fever, classical swine fever and swine vesicular disease....

Formation of the Drosophila cellular blastoderm involves both membrane invagination and cytoskeletal regulation. Mutations in src64 and tec29 reveal a novel role for these genes in controlling contraction of the actin-myosin microfilament ring during this process. Although membrane invagination still proceeds in mutant embryos, its depth is not uniform, and basal closure of the cells does not o...

A theoretical procedure has been developed with the aim of obtaining an accurate and rapid estimation of the degree of crystallisation in jarosite glasses by measuring the densities of the parent glass and, after the thermal treatment, of the glass-ceramic. Compositions were prepared by mixing jarosite waste with granite scraps and glass cullet, yielding three di€erent glass-batchs, melted at 1...

Most analyses of food-sharing behavior invoke complex explanations such as indirect and delayed benefits for sharing via kin selection and reciprocal altruism. However, food sharing can be a more general phenomenon accounted for by more parsimonious, mutualistic explanations. We propose a game theoretical model of a general sharing situation in which food owners share because it is in their own...

Introduction Archaeological investigations of landfills have revealed that biodegradable wastes can be found — virtually intact — 25 years after burial. We know that landfills contain bacteria with the metabolic capability to degrade many of the materials that are common components of municipal refuse. The persistence for decades of degradable materials in the presence of such organisms appears...

In this paper, the integration of two emerging classes of scheduling problems, the class of scheduling problems with time-dependent deterioration and the class of scheduling problems with rate-modifying activities, are addressed. The scheduling problems have been studied independently. However, the integration of these classes is motivated by human operators of tasks who have fatigue while carr...

The Jourknow project addresses the question of freeform notes known as information scraps. We are focused on unifying the user’s PIM tools, providing lightweight input and enabling support for uncommon types of personal information. In this position paper we describe our current directions and lessons learned from work on the Jourknow system. We have redesigned our lightweight input language fo...
