A nonlinear continuum phase field theory is developed to describe amorphization of crystalline elastic solids under shear and/or pressure loading.An order parameter describes the local degree of crystallinity.Elastic coefficients can depend on the order parameter, inelastic volume change may DULSE WHOLE accompany the transition from crystal to amor

This study aimed to analyze the oxidative stability of flaxseed oil and coconut oil blends.Coconut oil: flaxseed oil was mixed at different ratios on weight basis (95:5, 90:10, 85:15, 80:20, Caddies and 75:25).The oxidative stability was measured using acid value, iodine value, peroxide value, and saponification value under accelerated oven storage

Abstract The quiver Yangians were originally defined for the quiver and superpotential from string theory on general toric Calabi-Yau threefolds, and serve as BPS algebras of these systems.Their characters reproduce the unrefined BPS indices, which are related to classical Donaldson-Thomas (DT) invariants.We generalize this construction in two dire

In Niger, the growth in local demand for milk and meat makes it necessary to consider genetic improvement of the indigenous cattle.At the Toukounous breeding station, the Azawak zebu has undergone over 50 years of line breeding for milk and meat production traits.To understand the adoption potential of improved Azawak sires in Niger, this study pro
