… Consistent with this hypothesis, LLD is also associated with pronounced deficits in
processing speed and executive functions (for a recent review Herrmann and colleagues25). …

There is a variety of methodologies used in the aquatic sciences and soil sciences for extracting
different forms of Si from sediments and soils. However, a comparison of the published …

BackgroundThe cognitive impairment of older depressed patients with late- as opposed to
early-onset illness may show important differences, in that patients with early onset may suffer …

We report on conductance measurements in carbon nanotube based double quantum dots
connected to two normal electrodes and a central superconducting finger. By operating our …

A variational theorem is presented which is equivalent to the elastic field equations
expressed in terms of the displacements and a function of the mean pressure. The variational …

The radial mapping version of the bounding surface plasticity formulation is applied to isotropic
cohesive soils. While some aspects of this constitutive model have appeared in the past, …

… −l solution of poly-(L)-lysine (Sigma Aldritch) for 2 min. The coverslips are then washed
twice with distilled water and then the same side is covered with a dilute solution of assembled …

A general approximate solution method applicable to the bending analysis of structural plates
is presented. The plates may have variable thicknesses and arbitrary shapes. Additionally, …

The Sahara–Sahel Dust Corridor runs from Chad to Mauritania and expels huge amounts of
mineral aerosols into the Atlantic Ocean. Data on samples collected from Algeria, Chad, …

The interest in biofertilizers is increasing and so is the potential for their use in sustainable
agriculture. However, many of the products that are currently available worldwide are often of …
