Pulse crops (annual grain legumes such as field pea, lentil, dry bean, and chickpea) have
become an important component of the cropping system in the northern Great Plains of North …

To increase the toughness of a metallic glass with the nominal composition Zr 41.25 Ti 13.75
Cu 12.5 -Ni 10 Be 22.5 , it was used as the matrix in continuous fiber composites reinforced …

The possibility that brain opiate systems participate in the control of social affect was
assessed by determining capacity of low doses of exogenous opiates (0.125-0.50 mg/kg …

The thickness dependence of yielding and fracture of metallic glass plates subjected to bending
is considered in terms of the shear band processes responsible for these properties. We …

Functional communication training has been reported to be a promising treatment for severe
behavior problems. In this study, functional communication training alone and combined …

Metallic glasses often exhibit marked ductility when subjected to compressive or bending
loads as a result of multiple shear band formation. This observed ductility depends upon …

The authors describe a technique for melt infiltration casting of composites with a metallic-glass
matrix. We made rods 5 cm in length and 7 mm in diameter. The samples were …

Field pea (Pisum sativum var. arvense L.) is an important legume crop around the world. It
produces grains with high protein content and can improve the amount of available nitrogen in …

The Zr 57 Nb 5 Al 10 Cu 15.4 Ni 12.6 bulk metallic glass forming liquid is reinforced with up
to 50 Volume-percent (% V f ) Ta, Nb, or Mo particles. An extensive reaction layer of varying …

To increase the toughness of a metallic glass with the nominal composition
