Ordering effect of kinetic energy on dynamic deformation of brittle solids
(Elsevier, 2008)
The present study focuses on the plane strain problem of medium-to-high strain-rate loading of an idealized brittle material with random microstructure. The material is represented by an ensemble of “continuum particles” ...
Some Observations Regarding Stochasticity of Dynamic Response of 2D Disordered Brittle Lattices
(SAGE Publications, 2011)
It had been long recognized that the tensile strength of brittle materials
increases with increase of the loading rate. In the present article, a statistical
approach to rupture of a disordered 2D triangular truss lattice ...
Interaction of Carbohydrate Coated Cerium-Oxide Nanoparticles with Wheat and Pea: Stress Induction Potential and Effect on Development
(MDPI, Basel, 2019)
Reports about the influence of cerium-oxide nanoparticles (nCeO(2)) on plants are contradictory due to their positive and negative effects on plants. Surface modification may affect the interaction of nCeO(2) with the ...
Impact fragmentation of nanoscale projectiles at ultrahigh striking velocities
(Springer Nature, 2015)
Molecular-dynamics simulations of the
classic Taylor experiment are performed to investigate
some general trends of impact fragmentation at ultrahigh
striking velocities. The striking velocities of flatended,
monocrystalline, ...
Further Remarks on Stochastic Damage Evolution of Brittle Solids Under Dynamic Tensile Loading
(SAGE Publications, 2011)
This article illuminates some general features and provides elementary
interpretations of the deformation, damage, and failure of brittle solids characterized
by very low fracture energy. The dynamic response of these ...
Stolbur Phytoplasma Transmission to Maize by Reptalus panzeri and the Disease Cycle of Maize Redness in Serbia
(Amer Phytopathological Soc, St Paul, 2009)
Maize redness (MR), induced by stolbur phytoplasma ('Candidatus Phytoplasma solani', subgroup 16SrXII-A), is characterized by midrib, leaf, and stalk reddening and abnormal ear development. MR has been reported from Serbia, ...
Desiccation Tolerance in Ramonda serbica Panc.: An Integrative Transcriptomic, Proteomic, Metabolite and Photosynthetic Study
(MDPI, 2022)
The resurrection plant Ramonda serbica Panc. survives long desiccation periods and fully recovers metabolic functions within one day upon watering. This study aimed to identify key candidates and pathways involved in ...
A Note on Short-time Response of Two-dimensional Lattices during Dynamic Loading
(SAGE Publications, 2008)
The disordered 2D lattices are used extensively to study damage
evolution and fracture of inhomogeneous or multi-phase systems. The present note
addresses their initial elastic response during dynamic loading. Namely, a ...
The lignicolous fungus Trametes versicolor (L.) Lloyd (1920): a promising natural source of antiradical and AChE inhibitory agents
(Taylor & Francis Ltd, Abingdon, 2017)
This study aimed to determine antiradical (DPPH center dot and (OH)-O-center dot) and acetylcholinesterase (AChE) inhibitory activities along with chemical composition of autochtonous fungal species Trametes versicolor ...
Fatty Acids Predominantly Affect Anti-Hydroxyl Radical Activity and FRAP Value: The Case Study of Two Edible Mushrooms
(MDPI, Basel, 2019)
Compared to plants, nowadays mushrooms attract more attention as functional foods, due to a number of advantages in manipulating them. This study aimed to screen the chemical composition (fatty acids and phenolics) and ...
