Atomic Ordering at the Liquid-Al/MgAl2O4 Interfaces from Ab Initio Molecular Dynamics Simulations See

MgAl2O4 spinel particles exist inevitably in Al-Mg alloy melts and may act as potential substrates for heterogeneous nucleation of solid aluminum during solidification processing. In this paper, we investigated systematically the atomic ordering of liquid Al adjacent to liquid-Al/MgAl2O4{1 1 ...

Targeting Vesicular LGALS3BP by an Antibody-Drug Conjugate as Novel Therapeutic Strategy for Neuroblastoma See

Neuroblastoma is the most common extra-cranial solid tumor in infants and children, which accounts for approximately 15% of all cancer-related deaths in the pediatric population. New therapeutic modalities are urgently needed. Antibody-Drug Conjugates (ADC)s-based therapy has been proposed as potentia...

Social capital in buyer-supplier relationships: A review of antecedents, benefits, risks, and boundary conditions See

The concept of social capital advocates that the goodwill available from relations is a valuable resource that can facilitate collective actions. Although social capital has recently gained momentum in the buyer-supplier relationship (BSR) literature, there is a surprising lack of consensus ...

Open Science in Health Psychology: Launching the EHPS Open Science SIG See

Open Science is a growing global movement aiming to make all aspects of research, education and scholarship accessible, transparent, and available to all audiences as early as possible. Open Science involves interdisciplinary scientists, funding bodies and universities working collaboratively to ...

Preliminary Investigation of the Performance of an Engine Equipped with an Advanced Axial Turbocharger Turbine See

Stringent emission regulations and increased demand for improved fuel economy have called for advanced turbo technologies in automotive engines. The use of turbochargers on smaller engines is one such concept, but they are limited by a time delay in reaching the required boost duri...

On the Role of Dilute Solute Additions on Growth Restriction in Binary Copper Alloys See

The effect of dilute solute additions on growth restriction in binary Cu alloys have been assessed at different degrees of superheat. Columnar grain length values from Northcott’s work [1] for binary Cu alloys were plotted against the corresponding undercooling parameter (P), the recipr...

Early Warning Systems for Banking Crises – Research Advances and Policy Utilisation See

As a result of the sub-prime crisis in 2007, usage of the terms Early Warnings Systems (EWS) and macroprudential surveillance have become inextricably linked in many discourses relating to systemic financial stability. However, macroprudential surveillance, as a policy term, existed decades ...

Macroprudential Policy, Monetary Policy and the Bank Interest Rate Margin See

Against the background of the policy interest in the interaction of monetary policy and macroprudential policy, we present empirical estimates of effects of macroprudential policies alongside monetary policy on banks’ interest rate margins (net interest income/average assets). This is an imp...
