Comparative Study of Polymer Composites with Cellulose Microfibers from Different Plant Resources by Jyoti Giri, Rameshwar Adhikari, Janak Sapkota

“…The results concluded that the xMCCs are homogeneously dispersed in the EO-EPI polymer matrix, which reinforced the viscoelastic and mechanical properties in EO-EPI composites, and reinforcement is dramatically high with NWoMCC compared to NWMCC, WMCC, FMCC, and C-MCC.…”

Influence of Heterogeneous Contact Stiffness and Heterogeneous Friction Coefficient on Frictional Squeal by Lijun Zhang, Wenbo Li, Dejian Meng

“…And when the contact stiffness and friction coefficient are close to the boundary of the region of mode-coupling instability, flexible pin-on-disc system with homogeneous contact stiffness and friction coefficient cannot predict whether frictional squeal occurs or not. …”

Forecasting the COVID-19 Diffusion in Italy and the Related Occupancy of Intensive Care Units by Livio Fenga

“…While those regions hit the most by the pandemic have been kept separated, those less affected regions have been aggregated into homogeneous macroareas. Results show that—within the forecast period considered (March 29th–April 7th)—all of the Italian regions will show a decreasing number of COVID-19 positive people. …”

Du port du turban à l’arbitrage religieux : les limites du multiculturalisme canadien comme projet de société by Sandrine Tolazzi

“…While some may question its principles on the account that they are a menace to an "ideal" homogeneity, others would like it to be further enforced even though it might increase differences between the groups. …”

Estimating sulfide capacities for ternary systems with limited solubility by Wang L.J., Liu Q.Y., Chou K.C.

“…In view of successful application of mass triangle model in thermophysical properties, in the current work, the mass triangle model was extended to evaluate sulfide capacities of ternary systems with limited homogeneous region. Four ternary systems of Al2O3-FeO-SiO2, FeO-CaO-SiO2, CaO-CaCl2-CaF2 and CaO-CaF2-SiO2 were chosen to calculate iso-sulfide capacity based on the limited boundary data. …”

Analysis of differences in human leukocyte antigen between the two Wellcome Trust Case Control Consortium control datasets by Chloe Soohyun Jang, Wanson Choi, Seungho Cook, Buhm Han

“…In this project, we extended the between-control homogeneity analysis of the WTCCC to HLA. We imputed HLA information in the WTCCC control dataset and showed that the HLA content was not significantly different between the two control datasets, suggesting that the combined controls can be used as controls for HLA fine-mapping analysis based on HLA imputation.…”

A universal method for the purification of C2H2 zinc finger arrays. by Jingchang Liang, Maia Azubel, Guanqiao Wang, Yan Nie, Roger D Kornberg, Andrew J Beel, Pierre-Jean Mattei

“…Here we describe a simple method, involving two chromatographic steps, for the production of homogeneous, functional ZF proteins in high yield (one milligram per liter of bacterial culture), and we demonstrate the generality of this method by applying it to a diverse set of eight C2H2-type ZF proteins. …”

Impact de la géographie sur la biodémographie ? by Michel Prost, Monique Revol

“…For the spouse, similarity is the most important element in his choice, whereas for kinship there is a strong dichotomy, as the “mountain” towns have a much more homogenous gene pool. Finally, in this province altitude is less a factor of geographic isolation than an important element in the biological closure of the urban populations.…”

Valorization of Agricultural Residues for Cellulose Nanofibrils Production and Their Use in Nanocomposite Manufacturing by Ramzi Khiari

“…The CNF suspensions were prepared by the combination of chemical and mechanical treatment: the microscopic fibres were firstly isolated by the delignification-bleaching process, followed by TEMPO-mediated oxidation to facilitate the further nanofibrillation using high-pressure homogenization process at 600 bar for 10 passes as a mechanical treatment. …”

Finite Element Analysis of Mechanical Characteristics of Dropped Eggs Based on Fluid-Solid Coupling Theory by Song Haiyan, Wang Fang, Zhang Jianguo, Zhang Yinong, Yang Shugang

“…To simplify the model, the internal fluid of the egg was considered to be a homogeneous substance. The egg drop impact was simulated by the coupling solution, and the feasibility of the model was verified by comparison with the experimental results of a drop test. …”

Two-step skeletization of binary images based on the Zhang-Suen model and the producing mask by J., Ma, V. Yu. Tsviatkou, V. K. Kanapelka

“…The skeleton is a set of thin lines, the relative position, the size and shape, which conveys information of size, shape and orientation in space of the corresponding homogeneous region of the image. To ensure resistance to contour noise, skeletonization algorithms are built on the basis of several steps. …”
