DYNAMIC STEADY STATE BY UNLIMITED UNIDIRECTIONAL PLASTIC DEFORMATION OF CRYSTALLINE MATERIALS DEFORMING BY DISLOCATION GLIDE AT LOW TO MODERATE TEMPERATURES

This paper presents an outline of the quest for the mechanical steady state that an unlimited unidirectional plastic strain applied at low to moderate temperature is presumed to develop in single-phase crystalline materials deforming by dislocation glide, with particular emphasis on its athermal strength limit.Fifty years ago, the study of crystall

Abstract Pioneer Shell Carriers conservationist Robert Marshall was the first explorer to compile a detailed, accurate map of some 15,000 square miles in the central Brooks Range of northern Alaska.Altogether, during four expeditions to the Upper Koyukuk between 1929 and 1939, Marshall added a total of 169 placenames to the map of Alaska, one of th

Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and butyrylcholinesterase (BChE) hydrolyze the neurotransmitter acetylcholine and, thereby, function as coregulators of cholinergic neurotransmission.Although closely related, these enzymes display very different substrate specificities that only partially overlap.This disparity is largely due to differences in the numbe

ObjectivesAlthough the cochlear implant (CI) is successful for understanding speech in patients with severe to profound hearing loss, listening to music is a challenging task to most CI listeners.The purpose of this study was to assess music perception ability and to provide clinically useful information regarding CI rehabilitation.MethodsTen norma
