Nanoindentation Simulation of Hardening Caused by Cr Precipitates in FeCr Alloy by WANG Shumin, HE Xinfu, CAO Jinli

“…By analyzing the dislocations, it is found that the dislocation length in Fe matrix containing Cr clusters decreases obviously, while the nucleation time of dislocations and the depth of indenter when dislocations nucleate slightly increase, indicating that the addition of Cr clusters slightly slows down the nucleation of dislocations and significantly hinders the expansion of dislocations in the matrix. …”

Dopamine modulates persistent synaptic activity and enhances the signal-to-noise ratio in the prefrontal cortex. by Sven Kroener, L Judson Chandler, Paul E M Phillips, Jeremy K Seamans

“…When the background DA was eliminated by depleting DA with reserpine and alpha-methyl-p-tyrosine, or by preparing corticolimbic co-cultures without the VTA slice, Up-states could be enhanced by low concentrations (0.1-1 microM) of DA that had no effect in the VTA containing cultures. Finally, in spite of the concentration-dependent effects on Up-states, exogenous DA at all but the lowest concentrations increased intracellular current-pulse evoked firing in all cultures underlining the complexity of DA's effects in an active network.…”
