Development of a wear coefficient equation for the A A7075-B4C composite – steel interface by Venkatrami Reddy Veduru, Ranjith R, Kanulla Karthik, P Sasirekha

“…The presence of reinforcement hinders dislocation movement led to an augmentation in the composites’ hardness, while an elevation in temperature resulted in a decline in hardness due to the reduction of Pierls stresses. Owing to the formation of a Mechanical Mixed Layer (MML), the wear rate decreases with addition of volume fraction of B _4 C particles until 7.5%, beyond this MML break down and wear rate transit from mild to severe due to the direct metal contact. …”

Distribution of C30 carotenoid biosynthesis genes suggests habitat adaptation function in insect-adapted and nomadic Lactobacillaceae by Tom Eilers, Marie Legein, Jari Temmermans, Jelle Dillen, Ine Vandendriessche, Koen Sandra, Peter A. Bron, Stijn Wittouck, Sarah Lebeer

“…The phenotype was confirmed in 87% of the predicted crtMN gene carriers (27/31). Nomadic and insect-adapted species, particularly those isolated from vegetable fermentations, e.g., Lactiplantibacillus, and floral habitats, e.g., Fructilactobacillus, contained crtMN genes, while vertebrate-associated species, including vaginal associated species, lacked this trait. …”
