Properties of electrodeposited Co–Mn films: Influence of deposition parameters

Abstract Co–Mn films were produced with electrodeposition considering the deposition parameters of electrolyte pH value, Mn concentration of the electrolyte and film thickness. The effect of each parameter on the structural, magnetic and magnetoresistance properties of the films was studied, separately. X-ray diffraction measurement showed that the films have hexagonal close packed structure. For the films deposited at different pH values, the surface morphologies with different-sized globular granules were observed whereas the morphology covered by uniformly distributed nanoscale grains was detected for the surfaces of all films produced from electrolytes with different Mn concentrations. Also, the ribbed surfaces for 6 μm and 4 μm, and the nano-sized acicular surface morphologies for 2 μm were observed. To the results of magnetic measurements, the saturation magnetization was found to be ∼1230 emu/cm 3 for all films deposited at different electrolyte pHs. The highest remanent magnetization value was obtained to be 882 emu/cm 3 for the film produced from the electrolyte containing 0.06 M Mn concentration. The coercivity, H c , values decreased from 147 Oe to 43 Oe when the electrolyte pH decreased from 4.7 to 2.6. And, the H c continued to decrease from 45 Oe to 31 Oe when the Mn concentration increased from 0.02 M to 0.06 M, and from 27 Oe to 22 Oe when the film thickness decreased from 6 μm to 2 μm. It is seen that the H c was immensely affected by the deposition parameters applied during the film production. The Co–Mn films with low H c were achieved using relatively low electrolyte pH, high Mn concentration of electrolyte and low film thickness, respectively. Also, influence of the deposition parameters affect H c is in order of the electrolyte pH, the Mn concentration in the electrolyte and the film thickness (from high to low influence). As it is observed that the magnetic properties are sensible to the deposition parameters and the Co–Mn films may have the potential applications in magnetic recording and sensors technologies.

Synthesis and Properties of a Clean and Sustainable Deicing Additive for Asphalt Mixture

A clean and sustainable deicing additive was prepared via the adsorption of acetate anions (Ac-) by magnesium (Mg) and aluminum (Al) calcined layered double hydroxide (Mg/Al-CLDH). Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy spectrums proved that Ac- had intercalated into LDH structure. X-ray diffraction patterns, scanning electron microscopy and transmission electron microscopy images showed that the intercalation spacing and platelet thickness of Mg and Al layered double hydroxide containing Ac- anions (Mg/Al-Ac- LDH) had been enlarged due to substitution of divalent CO32- anions by a larger quantity of monovalent Ac- anions. Differential scanning calorimetry tests testified that the insoluble Mg2/Al-Ac- LDH evidently decreased the freeze point (FP) of water to -10.68°C. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy analyses confirmed that the Ac- were strongly confined by the metal layers of LDHs. FP test of asphalt mixtures confirmed that Mg/Al-Ac- LDHs reduced FP to -5.5°C. Immersion test results indicated that Mg/Al-Ac- LDH had a good deicing durability and Ac- did not released from asphalt mixture. Snow melting observation was conducted further testified that Mg/Al-Ac- LDH melted snow or ice sustainably.
LIGHTING APPARATUS FOR VEHICLES

The invention relates to a lighting apparatus for vehicles, comprising a light source (1) and comprising an optical unit for generating a specified lighting distribution, wherein the optical unit has an optical element (2, 2', 2") with a light entry surface (S1) for coupling in light (5) emitted by the light source (1) and with a light exit surface (Sn), disposed at a distance from the light entry surface (S1), for coupling out the light (5) that has been input coupled at the light entry surface (S1) and guided along the principal light guiding direction (H) within the optical element (2, 2', 2"), wherein the optical element (2, 2', 2") is embodied as a layered body with a plurality of layers (S1, S2,…, Sn), wherein at least a number of the layers (S1, S2,…, Sn) respectively have sections (A11, A12, A13, A21, A22,…, Anm) of materials with different refractive indices (n1, n2, n3).
Metamaterials antenna for ultra-high field mri

M-Cube aims at changing the paradigm of High-Field MRI and Ultra High-Field antennas to offer a much better insight on the human body and enable earlier detection of diseases. Our main objective is to go beyond the limits of MRI clinical imaging and radically improve spatial and temporal resolutions.  The clinical use of High-field MRI scanners is drastically limited due to the lack of homogeneity and to the Specific Absorption Rate (SAR) of the Radio Frequency (RF) fields associated with the magnetic resonance.
The major way to tackle and solve these problems consists in increasing the number of active RF antennas, leading to complex and expensive solutions.  M-Cube solution relies on innovative systems based upon passive metamaterial structures to avoid multiple active elements. These systems are expected to make High-Field MRI fully diagnostically relevant for physicians.
To achieve these expectations, M-Cube consortium will develop a disruptive metamaterial antenna technology. This we will able us to tackle both the lack of homogeneity and SAR barriers. Metamaterials are composite structured manmade materials designed to produce effective properties unavailable in nature (e.g. negative optical index). They allow us to tailor electromagnetic waves at will. Thus, the scientifically ambitious idea is to develop antennas based on this unique ability for whole body coil. This technological breakthrough will be validated by preclinical and clinical tests with healthy volunteers. M-Cube gathers an interdisciplinary consortium composed of academic leaders in the field, eight universities, and two promising SMEs. Physicists, medical doctors and industrial actors will work closely all along the implementation of the project to guarantee the success this novel approach, a “patient-centered” solution which will pave the way for a more accurate diagnosis in the context of personalized medicine and will enable to detect a disease much earlier that is currently possible.
Implications of tissue stiffness in growth contrtissue stiffness and its implications in different growth rates of regenerating limbs amputated at different levels in salamanders (ambystoma mexicanum)

In several regenerating organisms it has been observed that distally amputated structures grow slower than proximally amputated ones, resulting in an overall time of regeneration that is independent of the tissue to be reformed. This observation suggests that cell proliferation or cell size could be adjusted with the plane of amputation along the proximo-distal (PD) axis, leading to an interesting scaling behaviour. It has been proposed that positional identity in the limb may be encoded as a proximal-to-distal gradient of cell surface molecules, that would in turn alter intercellular adhesions. Thus, it is possible that such differential adhesions are associated to the control of cell growth during regeneration. The central aim of this proposal is to address this question by combining cell biology, mathematical and physical tools, with the ultimate goal of understanding how the biomechanical properties of tissues affect regeneration, which may have important implications for the design of biomaterials aimed at being used for regenerative medicine.
We will tackle this question in the highly regenerative salamander species Axolotl mexicanum, in which limb regeneration is initiated regardless of the amputation plane, and the regenerating limb grows until its size matches the contralateral undamaged one. We will evaluate growth rate and cell cycle of regenerating limbs amputated at different levels, and mathematically describe cell proliferation patterns. We will characterize several cell surface and extracellular matrix molecules along the PD axis, and measure tissue mechanics in vivo. Furthermore, we will for the first time, evaluate the Hippo pathway in salamanders, an important modulator of cell growth in response to several physical inputs, as the causal link between increased tissue stiffness and decreased proliferation.
Social Innovation Research On Coworking Clusters

Innovation is a territorial cooperation process involving different categories of stakeholders for the designing of new products and services. Innovation may therefore be considered as a response to the economic crisis. In many Mediterranean territories, independent workers sharing offices are increasingly co-designing innovative products with an observed high level of competitiveness and sustainability. Hence, addressing the "innovation gap" that characterizes Mediterranean territories, COWORKMed will develop a new model of entrepreneurship and social innovation by favouring cooperation and operational bridging between public actors, universities, training centres and "mainstream" clusters together with civil society. COWORKMed will promote co-working processes and their transnational organization as a lever of social innovation in Mediterranean. Indeed, innovative products emerging from the cooperation of independent workers sharing offices could benefit more and better to "mainstream" clusters. Optimizing this contribution could also allow the transnational activity of key clusters through the implementation of a mobility scheme connecting ideas and people from co-working areas of the MED metropolitan areas. In order to assess the qualitative and quantitative potential of such synergies, COWORKMed will gather a multidisciplinary and pluralistic partnership able to carry out a study that could pave the way to future testing activities.

The final step of the method comprises the selection of an ironing table panel from the number of ironing table panels, the selection of an ironing table frame from the number of ironing table frames and the mounting of the selected ironing table panel on the selected ironing table frame.
Ultrafast Energy Transfer in a Regioregular Silylene-Spaced Copolymer

The energy-transfer properties of a regioregular silylene-spaced alternating donor−acceptor copolymer (donor−SiMe2−acceptor−SiMe2)m are determined with time-resolved spectroscopy; 4,4′-divinylbiphenyl serves as donor and 4,4′-divinylstilbene as acceptor. Steady-state fluorescence spectra show that the energy transfer is efficient. With excitation at 266 nm, fluorescence up-conversion curves at various detection wavelengths are measured to explore the detailed dynamics of the energy transfer. A rate ∼(0.3 ps)−1 for energy transfer between the S1 states of the donor and acceptor moieties is observed. Theoretical calculations based on fragment excitation difference provide a rate of energy transfer near the experimental value with detailed insight into the mechanism of energy transfer. The results of theoretical calculations indicate that the Coulomb interaction is dominant and the Dexter process is weak. The high-multipole interactions are important for energy transfer.

Disconnect2Reconnect? understanding well-being in an increasingly digital society

Mobile devices, and the ‘always on’ connectivity they enable via numerous social media services, are increasingly blamed for a decline in well-being among young people. In today’s ‘poly-social-media’ landscape where people often make use of multiple platforms for different purposes, the increasing pressure to check updates combined with an overload of information available can lead to increased emotional exhaustion and declines in physical health (e.g., sleep disturbance). Consequently, there is a growing trend of users desiring to disconnect from or to use social media more mindfully, but many struggle to do so effectively. While the idea of ‘digital detoxes’ is increasingly adverted in mainstream media and gaining public popularity, academic research is still in its infancy. This is problematic, as ‘social media fatigue’ – a state whereby people suffer from mental exhaustion after experiencing technological, informative and communicative overloads through their participation different social media platforms – might become a serious mental health issue due to the ubiquitous nature of mobile and social media. Fostering citizen’s digital competences and skills to effectively navigate digital society highly fits with the aims and scope of the European Commission’s 21st century ‘Digital Competence Framework’. Using a multi-method approach, combining mobile experience sampling methods and panel surveys, this action develops and tests a theory-driven model to explain the antecedents of social media fatigue, the strategies people use to disconnect from social media, and the short-term and long-term consequences for subjective well-being among young adults. The resulting Disconnect2Reconnect model advances theory and methods, offers actionable recommendations to practitioners on mindful media use in an increasingly digital society, and is fundamental for developing tailored guidelines and educational interventions to promote healthy media use and digital well-being.
Phase transition and elastic properties of TiN under pressure from first-principles calculations

Abstract The structural phase transition and elastic properties of Titanium Nitride (TiN) are investigated using density functional theory (DFT) method within the Perdew–Burke–Ernzerhof (PBE) form of generalized gradient approximation (GGA). Our theoretical equilibrium structural parameters of TiN are in good agreement with the available experimental results and other theoretical values. The predicted phase transition from NaCl-type (B1) to CsCl-type (B2) structure occurs at ca. 341.9 GPa. This conclusion is in agreement with that of Ahuja et al., contrary to the calculation of Ojha et al. using a two-body interionic potential theory. In addition, it is found that the zinc-blende type (B3) and WC structures are not stable in the whole pressure range considered. Especially, the elastic properties of B1 and B2 structures for TiN under pressures are studied for the first time. The bulk moduli, shear moduli, compressional and shear wave velocities of B1–TiN and B2–TiN are obtained successfully and these results increase monotonically with increasing pressure. By analyzing of B/G, the brittle-ductile behavior of TiN is assessed. In addition, polycrystalline elastic properties are also obtained successfully for a complete description of elastic properties.

Role and regulation of dendritic cell functions by solute carrier transporters

Phagocytes are confronted daily with the dreaded task to respond to billions of dying cells and a plethora of external pathogens. Dendritic cells (DCs) comprise a heterogeneous group of phagocytes that are equipped with several phagocytic and pathogen recognition receptors (PRRs), and with the processing machinery to mediate efficient elimination of apoptotic or infectious cargos. This, in turn, helps to maintain tissue homeostasis and prevent autoimmunity. However, there is fast-growing evidence that DC functions also affect metabolic pathways. Moreover, we are now beginning to appreciate that phagocytes need to adapt to metabolic changes and deal with the ingested material by recruiting, among others, the membrane-bound solute carrier transporters (SLCs). SLCs are the second largest family of membrane proteins in the human genome, yet remain relatively under-studied. SLCs mediate the import and export of ions, nutrients, lipids, fatty acids or drugs, and the relevance of their functions is reflected by the vast number of diseases linked to altered expression or function of SLCs, and the many drugs that target SLCs. Using sophisticated mouse models, we will analyse the expression of SLCs in DC subsets in vivo upon engulfment of apoptotic or infectious cargos. Using cutting edge technologies, we will dissect the transcriptional and metabolic programs that dictate functions of DC subsets in both tolerogenic and immunogenic conditions. We wil address, for the first time, the role of SLCs in major DC functions such as sensing pathogens and presenting antigens to T lymphocytes for the initation of adaptive immune responses. Altogether, this study will provide new insights into SLC regulation and DC biology. This proposal has the potential not only to reveal novel aspects of the use of SLCs for drug development and therapeutics of both common and rare diseases, and to enhance the targeting of engulfment or of metabolic pathways in healthy states.
Fairness and respect in obesity prevention policies: a response to David Buchanan

In his response to our article (1,2), David Buchanan introduces some useful and important distinctions in the concepts of equality and autonomy. He highlights, for example, the distinction between inequality and inequity, which captures the insight that not all differences between people are unjust. Unjust inequalities are a subset of differences between people, and theories of justice can be defined by how they determine which of these differences are unjust. In addition, he points out that autonomy is not simply a matter of negative liberty, but also about a positive capacity to act. This understanding of autonomy is consistent with the account we offered in the paper, which underlines the importance of both the capacity to understand available options, and the capacity to act on the choices that one makes.
The Arab revolutions in context : civil society and democracy in a changing Middle East

From late 2010 a series of dramatic and unprecedented events swept across the Middle East and North Africa, toppling several autocratic regimes that had held power for decades and ushering in a new climate of dissent and democratisation. The Arab Revolutions in Context seizes a unique opportunity to reflect on these seismic events, their causes and consequences, and the core issues facing the region as it moves forward. This volume is more than a collection of detailed thematic essays, however. It situates the Arab Revolutions within their broader contextual backgrounds--showing that a unique set of historical events, as well as local, regional and global dynamics, has converged to provide the catalyst that triggered the recent revolts--and also within a new conceptual framework. The argument here is that the Arab Revolutions pose a very specific challenge to conventional wisdom concerning democracy and democratisation in the Middle East. The Arab Revolutions in Context is the first volume of its kind to address the Arab Revolutions and the varying analyses, debates and discussions that they have stimulated.
Characteristics of Electric and Magnetic Fields in the Vicinity of a Quadruple Electric Power Line

The relationship between the electric and magnetic fields along with soil resistivity is very important for direct lightning stroke. In this paper, the electric and magnetic fields produced by a parallel quadruple high voltage power lines (PQHVPL) have been measured. The measured fields are substantially high compared to the fields coming from conventional 132 kV and 275 kV power lines. The correlation between electric and magnetic fields emitted from PQHVPL and soil resistivity in the ground below the lines has also been investigated. The electric and magnetic field digital exposure system (EMDEX) hardware and software are used to measure and analyze the results. It is found that the electric field is higher at high soil resistivity and is lower at low soil resistivity.
