Time Dependence of Hydrogen Induced Cracking of X70 Pipeline Steel under Severe and Mild Sour Service Conditions using Ultrasonic Analysis
Download2020-01-01
Gawor, S., Wiskel, J.B., Ivey, D.G., Liu, J., Henein, H.
A standard NACE hydrogen induced crack test was used to evaluate the resistance of two compositions of X70 steel (X70-X (Ca/S ratio of 2.5) and X70-B (Ca/S ratio of <0.5)) under severe (pH = 2.7 and 100% H2S) and mild (pH = 5.5 and 100% H2S) sour service conditions. An ultrasonic technique was...

Background Animal movement modelling provides unique insight about how animals perceive their landscape and how this perception may influence space use. When coupled with data describing an animal’s environment, ecologists can fit statistical models to location data to describe how spatial memory...

Sea lice are a threat to the health of both wild and farmed salmon and an economic burden for salmon farms. With a free-living larval stage, sea lice can disperse tens of kilometres in the ocean between salmon farms, leading to connected sea louse populations that are difficult to control in...

Tiptoeing through the rest of his life: A functional adaptation to a legshortened by femoral neck fracture
Download2016-04-01
Salvage excavation of a Roman cemetery (1st–2nd century CE) at the site of ancient Erculam (region ofCampania), Italy, yielded the skeleton of an older male with a healed fracture of the femoral neck thatreduced the femoral neck angle and resulted in leg shortening. The right foot shows bony...

Goonewardene, Laksiri A., Basarab, John A., Wang, Z., Price, Megan A., Ramsey, P., Marx, T., Aalhus, J., Seneviratne, R. W., Yalingasinghe, W. G. N. P., Okine, Erasmus K.
The objectives were to compare weights and proportions (%) of muscle (M), fat (F) and bone (B) in the carcass, primal cuts (brisket, loin and short loin, chuck, flank, plate, rib, round and shank) and fat depots in three BeefBooster® composites (n = 176) from 274-456 days at slaughter, and...
