Characterization of Aquifer Multiscale Properties by Generating Random Fractal Field with Truncated Power Variogram Model Using Karhunen–Loève Expansion by Liang Xue, Diao Li, Cheng Dai, Tongchao Nan

“…The results show that either the unconditional or conditional (on measurements) multiscale random fractal field can be generated by using truncated power variogram model and KL expansion when the upper limit of the integral scale is sufficiently large, and the main structure of the spatial variation can be described by using only the first few dominant KL expansion terms associated with large eigenvalues. …”

Tenuta del registro formale nella comunicazione accademica scritta in italiano L1 e L2 by Francesca Pagliara

“…The analysis focuses on the detection of specific linguistic features such as punctuation, use of polite pronouns, informal or spoken syntactic structures. The results show that there are common features in the ability to manage the formal register in the written production of L1 and L2 students, although significant differences emerge in the use of punctuation and polite pronouns, mostly due to interlinguistic interference. …”

Development of 3D interconnected nanoporous TiZrHfNbTaNi high-entropy alloy via liquid metal dealloying and subsequent synthesis of (TiZrHfNbTaNi)O high-entropy oxide by Jae Hyuk Lee, Soo Vin Ha, Jihye Seong, Akira Takeuchi, Ruirui Song, Hidemi Kato, Soo-Hyun Joo

“…Selective dissolution of Ni occurred in a molten Mg bath from a (TiZrHfNbTa)20Ni80 precursor alloy, while the immiscible elements Ti, Zr, Hf, Nb, and Ta self-organized into 3D interconnected structures. The initial precursor consisted of three distinct phases, which underwent sequential, stepwise selective dissolution due to variations in their phase stabilities at the reaction front. …”
