The negative relationship between grain size (percentage >2.5mm) and protein content usually observed in barley grain samples is attributed to the presence of thin grains. The objective of this study was to determine ...

A systematic experimental analysis based on an assessment of the mean martensite plate size (hplate) in sub-grain domains was implemented to characterize the martensite morphology in polycrystalline Cu-based shape memory ...

A systematic experimental analysis based on the assessment of the mean martensite plate size in sub-grain domains was implemented to characterize the martensitic microstructure morphology in polycrystalline Cu-based shape ...

Current models of sorghum crop growth predict grain number using a calculated plant growth rate around flowering and a genotype-dependent parameter that describes the relationship between both traits. Few values for this ...

Aluminum doped zinc oxide (AZO) is a transparent conducting oxide (TCO) with oxygen vacancy mediated carrier density and mobility. Due to low oxygen self-diffusivity, the influence of thermal reducing treatments is strongly ...

The size and nature of the genotype (G) and genotype×environment (G×E) interaction effects for grain yield, its physiological determinants, and grain size exhibited by the Andean grain crop quinoa at low latitudes were ...

The effect of grain size on thermal hysteresis is studied in ribbons and thin strips obtained by rapid solidification techniques. Results show a strong increase of the hysteresis width when the grain size is below ∼100μm. ...

A study of the grain growth kinetics in two shape memory alloys, CuAlBe and CuZnAl, is reported. Isothermal aging treatments at temperatures between 1023 and 1123 K were conducted, determining the grain size distribution ...

A method has been developed to obtain quantitative information about grain size and shape from fractured surfaces of ceramic materials. One elaborated a routine to split intergranular and transgranular grains facets of ...
