Response of cauliflower (Brassica oleracea L.) to nitric oxide application under cadmium stress by Jing, Ma

“…The concentration of malondialdehyde (MDA) and Cd accumulation (roots and shoots) increased significantly (P < 0.05) under the increasing levels of Cd in all genotypes of B. oleracea while antioxidant (enzymatic or non-enzymatic) capacity and nutritional status of the plants was decreased with varying levels of Cd in the sand. …”

Improving mechanical, thermal and damping properties of niti (Nitinol) reinforced aluminum nanocomposites by Matli, Penchal R.

“…Compared to the unreinforced aluminum, hardness, ultimate compression/tensile strength and yield strength increased by 105%, 46%, 45%, and 41% while elongation and coefficient of thermal expansion (CTE) decreased by 49% and 22%, respectively. The fabricated Al-1.5 NiTi nanocomposite exhibited significantly higher damping capacity (3.23 × 10−4) and elastic modulus (78.48 ± 0.008 GPa) when compared to pure Al.…”

Impact of moisture contents on the performance of organic bi-layer ITO/OD thermo-electric cells by Ahmad, Zubair

“…The experimental results clearly show that with the increase of temperature Seebeck coefficient increases, whereas with increasing moisture contents the Seebeck coefficient of the ITO/OD thermo-electric cell significantly decreases. Our results point out the need for well-controlled environmental conditions, predominantly moisture level, in order to appraise the thermo-electric performance of organic semiconductor materials. 2016, Springer Science+Business Media New York.…”
