Nucleation of m-hydroxybenzoic acid crystals in different pure solvents has been investigated, and the thermodynamic interrelationship between two polymorphs was analyzed. The melting properties and specific heat capacities ...

The oak species Quercus petraea and Q. robur are dominant canopy tree species of native deciduous forests in Ireland and coastal regions of Western Europe. These forests are typically plant species-rich, and can also have ...

SmCo films with a Cr underlayer have been investigated as potentially attractive candidates for high density recording media. Magnetron sputtering was used here to produce Cr/SmCox/Cr films on Si (100) substrates. The ...

The magnetization of nickel foils electrodeposited under different conditions was not usually found to differ significantly from that of the bulk (55.4 Am2 kg−1). However, some galvanostatically deposited films from a ...

To produce useful strengthening, precipitation hardenable aluminium alloys rely on rapid quenching from the solution heat treatment temperature to suppress the formation of coarse equilibrium second phases. An unavoidable ...

This NSF Design Requirements Workshop has a very ambitious and wide-ranging set of objectives. It invites contributions from a wide range of disciplines and encourages a variety of perspectives on requirements and design, ...

This research study investigated student performance in mathematics during the transition from primary to post-primary school. Academic achievement in mathematics was measured using a standardised test at the end of sixth ...

In Global Software Engineering Research, there have been many studies carried out from the perspective of the company who is outsourcing software development. However, very few studies focus on the companies to whom the ...

We consider the problem of supporting effective code reuse as part of Software Product Line Engineering. Our approach is based on code forking – a practice commonly used in industry where new products are created by ...
