15th-century printed Italian editions of Aesopian texts by Malaspina, M

“…</p> <p>The <em>Conclusions</em> focus on the originality of certain texts created specifically for the press, on the people who played an important role in the composition and printing of Aesopian texts, on the identification of new lines of transmission in print, on the distinction and analysis of different iconographic lines of descent in the illustrated editions, and on the discovery of noteworthy cases of provenance evidence, which suggest how the consumption of Aesopian Italian incunables transversely engaged people at different social and cultural levels.…”

Dynamics and stability of evaporating and condensing liquid layers by Wei, Tao

“…Finally, conclusions are drawn, and perspectives of future study based on these works have been proposed, including to model the dynamics of thin evaporating droplets with moving contact lines resulting from the successive touchdown of an evaporating layer and to investigate the relation between short-wave convection and long-wave deformation instabilities in the presence of phase change.…”

Modeling of plasma motion in a toroidal solenoid by Tu, Yuqiang.

“…Filtered Cathodic Vacuum Arc (FCVA) deposition technique has received extensive attention recently due to its unique feature: vacuum arc is generated at one end of a toroidal solenoid filter, in which those ions and electrons in the arc follow the force line of the magnetic field and pass through, while those neutral particles moving in straight lines are filtered away, and a "purified" plasma is obtained at the other end. …”
