An experimental and feasibility study into the response of titanium alloys subjected to compression and MDF tests by Huang, Cindy Xiaohui.

“…The initial high cost is compensated either by the advantages of weight reduction due to the low density of the metal or by the increased life and reliability of the component due to high corrosion resistance of the metal.…”

Effects of "Thursdays at the Museum" at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts on the mental and physical health of older community dwellers : the art-health randomized clinical trial pr... by Beauchet, Olivier, Cooper-Brown, Liam, Hayashi, Yoko, Galery, Kevin, Vilcocq, Christine, Bastien, Thomas

“…Background: Recently, we demonstrated that the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts’ (MMFA) participatory art-based activity, known as “Thursdays at the Museum,” improved the well-being, quality of life, and physical health (i.e., frailty) of older community dwellers by using a pre-post intervention, single arm, prospective and longitudinal experimental design. …”

Retarding effect of concentration of cementation solution on biocementation of soil by Lai, Han-Jiang, Cui, Ming-Juan, Wu, Shifan, Yang, Yang, Chu, Jian

“…The retarding effect will dominate increasingly when CCS is higher than 1.0 M and the amount of calcium carbonate precipitation will reduce for the given amount and type of bacteria used in this study and become zero with CCS of 2.5 M. For the same calcium carbonate content, the unconfined compressive strength is greater for sand treated using a lower CCS as the contribution to the bonding strength by the calcium carbonate generated under a lower CCS is greater than that under a higher CCS.…”

Large-scale model testing of high-pressure grouting reinforcement for bedding slope with rapid-setting polyurethane by Zhang, Zhichao, Tang, Xuefeng, Liu, Kan, Ye, Longzhen, He, Xiang

“…Bedding slope is a typical heterogeneous slope consisting of different soil/rock layers and is likely to slide along the weakest interface. Conventional slope protection methods for bedding slopes, such as retaining walls, stabilizing piles, and anchors, are time-consuming and labor- and energy-intensive. …”

Quantifying the average and the likelihood of increases in space weather indices and in situ measurements during Solar Cycles 20–23 by Lohmeyer, Whitney Q., Pang, Anthony, Cahoy, Kerry, Shprits, Yuri

“…In this work, we analyse five metrics and in-situ measurements (Kp, Dst, and AE index, and high-energy proton and electron flux) throughout Solar Cycles 20–23 (1964 to 2008), and provide a baseline for the environment during the phases of the solar cycles (maximum, minimum, declining or ascending). …”
