Enhanced tolerance to water stress in adults of the South India strain of the seed beetle, Callosobruchus maculatus (Coleoptera: Bruchidae), as a product of large body size
A water balance study was conducted on newly-emerged adults of seed beetle, Callosobruchus maculatus, to explore how South India strain survives longer than Brazil strain in laboratory cultures.No difference between strains was noted with regard to dehydration tolerance, and water conservation features confirm classification of this species as xero
The Effect of PbO and Se in Different Ratios on Thermal Properties of Bi2Sr2Ca1Cu2Ox BSCCO Glass Ceramic System
In this study, thermal properties of Bi2Sr2Ca1Cu2Ox (BSCCO) doped PbO and Se in different ratios has been investigated.The glass transition temperature (Tg), the temperature of crystallization initiation (Tc) and the peak temperature of crystallization peak (Tx) values according to DTA measurements were obtained as 733-749 K, 739-759 K and 746-766
Ductile fracture toughness of Al 5754-H111 alloy using essential work of fracture method
The aluminium alloy 5754 H-111 is a high-strength alloy with a remarkable corrosion resistance, particularly to seawater.It is widely used in the aerospace, marine, and automotive industries.In this work, the influence of fracture toughness methods applied to two thin aluminium sheets with different thicknesses (1.8 mm and 5 mm) was analysed.The fi
