An interatomic pair potential with tunable intrinsic ductility
A family of interatomic potentials is constructed for which the intrinsic ductility can be tuned systematically. Specifically, the elastic constants and critical energy release rate for Griffith cleavage, GIc, are held constant, while the critical energy release rate for dislocation emission, GIc, can be varied. This b...

Global Burden of Sickle Cell Anaemia in Children under Five, 2010-2050: Modelling Based on Demographics, Excess Mortality, and Interventions
Background:The global burden of sickle cell anaemia (SCA) is set to rise as a consequence of improved survival in high-prevalence low- and middle-income countries and population migration to higher-income countries. The host of quantitative evidence documenting these changes has not been assembled at the global level. ...

Results The agreement between Aβ classification with CSF Aβ42 and 18F-flutemetamol positron emission tomography was very high (? = 0. 85). Of all the cases, 92%were classified identically using an Aβ42 cutoff of 647 pg/mL or less. Cerebrospinal fluid Aβ42 predicted abnormal cortical Aβ deposition accurately (odds ratio...

Hammerstein System Identification Using Ls Svm And Steady State Time Response
In this paper a new system identification approach for Hammerstein systems is proposed. A straightforward estimation of the nonlinear block through the use of LS-SVM is done by making use of the behavior of Hammerstein systems in steady state. Using the estimated nonlinear block, the intermediate variable is calculated...

Towards the NEXT generation of bb0nu experimets
Neutrinoless double beta decay is a hypothetical, very slow radioactive process whose observation would establish unambiguously that massive neutrinos are Majorana particles --- that is to say, identical to their antiparticles ---, which implies that a new physics scale beyond the Standard Model must exist. Furthermore...
