In this article the time-dependent plastic deformation behavior of two refractory high entropy alloys was investigated, namely HfTaTiVZr and TaTiVWZr. These alloys are based on reduced activity metals from the 4-5-6 elemental palette that would allow easy post-service recycling after use in nuclear reactors. The creep behavior was investigated using nano-indentation over the temperature range of 298 K to 573 K under static and dynamic loads up to 5 N.

Article reports on singlet oxygen sensitization involving a class of hemiquinonoid-substituted resorcinarenes prepared from the corresponding 3,5-di-t-butyl-4-hydroxyphenyl-substituted resorcinarenes.

This article applies cryo-based atom probe tomography to directly reveal the water-solid interface and hydrated corrosion layers making up the nanoscale porous structure of a corroded borosilicate glass in its native aqueous environment. The analysis includes morphology and compositional mapping of the inner gel/glass interface, isolation of a tomographic sub-volume of the tortuous water-filled gel, and comparison of the gel structure with simulations.

This article presents a comparative study of water indices and image classification algorithms for mapping inland water bodies using Landsat imagery through obtaining 24 high-resolution (≤5 m) and cloud-free images archived in Google Earth with the same (or ±1 day) acquisition dates as the Landsat-8 OLI images over 24 selected lakes across the globe, and developing a method to generate the alternate ground truth data from the Google Earth images for properly evaluating the Landsat image classification results.

Article determines Abraham model L solute descriptors for 174 additional mono-methyl branched alkanes based on published linear-programmed gas chromatographic retention indices.

Article describing the isolation and genomic characterization of 116 phages that infect Microbacterium spp.

Article is a study with the goal of optimizing and validating the use of a colorimetric plate-based respiratory burst and fluorometric plate-based phagocytic cell activity assays for use with kidney cells from the fathead minnow (Pimephales promelas), an emerging immunotoxicity model.

Article discussing key questions and opportunities in the field of Proanthocyanidins (PA) biosynthesis.

Article exploring the syntactic nature of Japanese Right Dislocation Constructions (RDCs) by illuminating the ellipsis sites in the postverbal domains of the constructions via pragmatic inference. Although the most prevailing bi-clausal analysis of RDCs adopts the perspective that the repetition of the antecedent clause occurs in collocation, this paper shows that the same surface strings are potentially ambiguous since right dislocation is a heterogeneous phenomenon. It proposes additional types of a bi-clausal structure and discusses evidence that suggests that even when the surface strings are the same the recovery of the ellipsis site is possibly derived in multiple ways through the use of distinct linguistic strategies.

This review article calls for establishing the CaMV 35S promoter as a quantitative reference standard for transcription activity in plants.

This article provides the summary of the reports of the geographical distribution in the Maritime Antarctic and sub-Antarctic regions of Parochlus steinenii (Gercke, 1889) (Diptera, Chironomidae), the only flying insect occurring naturally in the Antarctic continent. This database was developed as one of the main objectives of two Chilean-funded research projects addressing understanding the effects of climate change on sub-Antarctic and Antarctic insects.

Article on the implementation of liquid exfoliation to inkjet-print two-dimensional (2D) black phosphorous (BP) and molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) p–n heterojunctions on a standard indium tin oxide (ITO) glass substrate in a vertical architecture. The authors also compared the optical and electrical properties of the inkjet-printed BP layer with that of the MoS₂ and the electrical properties of the mechanically exfoliated MoS₂ with that of the inkjet-printed MoS₂.

This article proposes a software framework for identifying the percentage and sources of communication non-determinism.

Article verifying a conjecture of Vershik by showing that Hall’s universal countable locally finite group can be embedded as a dense subgroup in the isometry group of the Urysohn space and in the automorphism group of the random graph. It shows the same for all automorphism groups of known infinite ultraextensive spaces.

Article applying latent class analysis to a set of racial and gender attitude items from the General Social Survey (1977 to 2018) to identify four configurations of individuals’ simultaneous views on race and gender.

Article studying the noise generated by a quadrotor biplane unmanned aerial system (UAS) for various conditions in terms of the UAS pitch angle, propellers rotating velocity (RPM), and the UAS speed to understand the physics involved in its aeroacoustics and structure-borne noise.

Article studies the relationship between financial literacy and self-employment in a U.S. context and extends prior research by focusing on gender and race.

Article develops an allometric model capable of fitting the initial phase of the COVID-19 pandemic and predicting the propagation of the illness for up to 100 days.

This article is a review of friction stir additive manufacturing (FSAM) and additive friction stir deposition (AFSD) and provides a systems approach framework and a conceptual process model to guide researchers.

This article presents a study detecting Tweets that contain racist text by performing the sentiment analysis of Tweets. The proposed GCR-NN model can detect 97% of the tweets that contain racist comments.

Article using first-principles simulations to predict room temperature ferroelectricity in a representative of the formate family, [NH₂NH₃][Co(HCOO)₃].

Article is a study with the main objective of mitigation of thermal degradation of skutterudite-based thermoelectric materials—so as to extend the service life of those materials and make them more attractive for industry from the economical perspective. Significant mitigation of oxidation and sublimation of thermoelectric (TE) materials was achieved.

This article presents a study on the probabilistic assessment of the seismic performance and vulnerability of corrugated steel plate shear walls (CoSPSWs) using fragility functions.

Article talks about how the number of described contact sites between different subcellular compartments and structures in eukaryotic cells has increased dramatically in recent years, which has substantially reinforced the well-known premise that these kinds of connections are essential for overall cellular organization. The authors discuss contact sites involving plant lipid droplets (LDs), including LD-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) connections that mediate the biogenesis of new LDs at the ER, LD-peroxisome connections.
