The caridean shrimp genus Alvinocaris Williams and Chace, 1982 (Bresilioidea: Alvinocarididae) is revised based upon type material and newly obtained samples from various reducing environments of the deep-sea floor of the world. All species are known from chemosynthetic communities associated with hydrothermal vents, brine or cold seeps. Eight named species are recognized in Alvinocaris, of whi...

EBSD has evolved into an effective tool for microstructure investigations in the scanning electron microscope. The purpose of this contribution is to give an overview of various simulation approaches for EBSD Kikuchi patterns and to discuss some of the underlying physical mechanisms.

The effect of hydrogen on the fatigue behavior materials has been studied extensively during past 100 years, but is just poorly understood due to complex interplay between and deformation processes. In this context, damage metals becoming one major challenges decarbonization. While most work focuses f.c.c. materials, availability relevant results becomes sparse when considering technologically ...

Congenital onychodysplasia of the index fingers, also known as Iso–Kikuchi syndrome, is characterized using five diagnostic criteria: congenital occurrence, unilateral or bilateral involvement of the index fingers, variation in nail appearance, possible hereditary involvement and frequently associated bone abnormalities1–5. Herein, we present the case of a newborn with congenital onychodysplasi...
