(Elsevier, 2014-06-25)This paper presents results of 3Dfractographical analysis of shear-mode fatigue cracks in ARMCO iron, alpha-titanium, nickel and the X5CrNi18-10 steel. Observation of crack paths on a microscopic level enables us to reveal ... -
High repetition rate laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy using acousto-optically gated detection
(AIP Publishing, 2014-07-24)This contribution introduces a new type of setup for fast sample analysis using laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS). The novel design combines a high repetition rate laser (up to 50 kHz) as excitation source and ... -
Convergent and divergent two-dimensional coordination networks formed through substrate-activated or quenched alkynyl ligation
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2014-08-01)Metal coordination assemblies of the symmetric bi-functional 4,4-di-(1,4-buta-1,3-diynyl)-benzoic acid are investigated by scanning tunnelling microscopy on metal surfaces. The formation of long-range ordered, short-range ... -
Effects of microstructure and crystallography on crack path and intrinsic resistance to shear-mode fatigue crack growth
(Italian Group of Fracture, 2015-09-16)The paper focuses on the effective resistance and the near-threshold growth mechanisms in the ferritic-pearlitic and the pure pearlitic steel. The influence of microstructure on the shear-mode fatigue crack growth is divided ... -
Use of micro computed-tomography and 3D printing for reverse engineering of mouse embryo nasal capsule
(IOP Publishing, 2016-03-02)Imaging of increasingly complex cartilage in vertebrate embryos is one of the key tasks of developmental biology. This is especially important to study shape-organizing processes during initial skeletal formation and growth. ... -
Stable room-temperature ferromagnetic phase at the FeRh(100) surface
(Springer Nature, 2016-03-03)Interfaces and low dimensionality are sources of strong modifications of electronic, structural, and magnetic properties of materials. FeRh alloys are an excellent example because of the first-order phase transition taking ... -
Preparation of (001) preferentially oriented titanium thin films by ion-beam sputtering deposition on thermal silicon dioxide
(Springer US, 2016-04-01)We propose the ion-beam sputtering deposition providing Ti thin films of desired crystallographic orientation and smooth surface morphology not obtainable with conventional deposition techniques such as magnetron sputtering ... -
A fractographic study of bending/torsion fatigue failure in metallic materials with protective surface layers
(Hindawi, 2016-06-10)Results are given of a fractographic study of biaxial in-phase bending/torsion fatigue fractures in specimens made of nitrided steel and nickel-based superalloy with protective coatings (diffusion coatings and plasma-sprayed ... -
The adhesion of normal human dermal fibroblasts to the cyclopropylamine plasma polymers studied by holographic microscopy
(Elsevier B.V., 2016-06-15)The understanding of cell–surface interactions plays an important role for the biomaterials development and bioengineering. Although it is already known that amine groups increase the cell adhesion and proliferation, the ... -
Chk1 inhibition significantly potentiates activity of nucleoside analogs in TP53-mutated B-lymphoid cells
(Impact Journals, 2016-08-19)Treatment options for TP53-mutated lymphoid tumors are very limited. In experimental models, TP53-mutated lymphomas were sensitive to direct inhibition of checkpoint kinase 1 (Chk1), a pivotal regulator of replication. We ... -
