Rogerzetes lacouturieri n. gen., n. sp., (Acari: Oribatida: Eremaeozetidae) from Madagascar
(Taylor & Francis, 2011-12)
Rogerzetes lacouturieri n. gen., n. sp., collected from Manankaza Forest Station, Ambohitantely, Tananarive, Madagascar, is described and illustrated based on adult specimens. The new genus is distinguishable by the following ...
Lithospheric density structure of the Southern Central Andes constrained by 3D data-integrative gravity modelling
(Springer, 2020-12-21)
The southern Central Andes (SCA) (between 27° S and 40° S) is bordered to the west by the convergent margin between the continental South American Plate and the oceanic Nazca Plate. The subduction angle along this margin ...
Mesozoic break-up of SW Gondwana: Implications for regional hydrocarbon potential of the southern South Atlantic
(Elsevier, 2003-06)
This work provides new palinspastic palaeofacies reconstructions of SW Gondwana incorporating rotation of a Falkland/Malvinas microplate. We discuss the implications of this for the tectonic evolution of the southern South ...
Two new species of the family Nippobodidae (Acari, Oribatida), including a description of the leg-folding process
(Pensoft Publishers, 2018-08-14)
Nippobodes panemorfis sp. n. and Leobodes trypasis sp. n. are described by means of optical and Scanning ElectronMicroscopy (SEM) and compared to other congeners. The leg-folding process is described and illustrated.Nippobodes ...
Oliine-induced iscous anisotropy in fossil strike-slip mantle shear zones and associated strain localization in the crust
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2021-01)
We propose that strain localization in plate interiors, such as linear belts of intraplate seismicity, may arise from spatial ariations in iscous anisotropy produced by preferred orientation of oliine crystals (CPO or ...

(Pensoft Publishers, 2018-08)
Nippobodes panemorfis sp. n. and Leobodes trypasis sp. n. are described by means of optical and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) and compared to other congeners. The leg-folding process is described and illustrated. ...
Morphological characterization and photocatalytic efficiency measurements of pure silica transparent open-cell sponges coated with TiO2
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2020-03)
Transparent glass sponges are a new class of materials that can potentially be used for effective light distribution in photocatalytic applications. In this work, transparent glass sponges are prepared by the polymer replica ...
Ultrasound application for production of nano-structured particles from esterified starches to retain potassium sorbate
(Elsevier, 2020-11)
Ultrasound technique was successfully used to obtain nanostructured particles from native and esterified starch, able to support the antimicrobial potassium sorbate (PS). The starch used (native, acetate or oleate) affected ...
Ultrasonic techniques for the detection of discontinuities in aluminum foams
(American Institute of Physics, 2017-02)
Metal foams are interesting materials with many potential applications. They are characterized by a cellular structure, that is the metals or metal alloys foamed include gas voids in the material. Their particular lightweight ...
