The standard gradient models have been intensively studied in the literature, cf.Fremond (1985) or Gurtin (1991) for various applications in plasticity, damage mechanics and phase change analysis.The governing equations for a solid have been introduced essentially from an extended version of the virtual equation.It is shown here first that these eq
This paper describes the architecture of an agent-based music service that generates dynamic playlists based on suggestions from multiple users.The system employs a number of agents capable of autonomy, mobility, scalability, collaboration and platform independence.In the system, agents are classified into two groups: requesters and music service t
The interactions of nanoparticles with living organisms are driven by an interface called the protein corona.This interface is formed when nanoparticles are introduced in biological milieu and proteins are adsorbed at nanoparticles’ surfaces.Understanding the factors that are responsible for the formation and the composition of the protein co
The Nordic Seas have one of the highest water-mass diversities in the world, yet large knowledge gaps exist in biodiversity structure and biogeographical distribution patterns of the deep macrobenthic fauna.This study focuses on the marine bottom-dwelling peracarid crustacean taxon Cumacea from northern waters, using a combined approach of morpholo
Both clinical and animal studies suggest that exercise may be an effective way to manage inflammatory and neuropathic pain conditions.However, existing animal studies commonly use forced exercise paradigms that incorporate varying degrees of stress, which itself can elicit analgesia, and thus may complicate the interpretation of the effects of exer
