Microstructural And Mechanical Study of The Al-20Sn (MASS%) Alloy Processed By Equal-Channel Angular Pressing By Route C
(2013-05-25)
In this work, the feasibility of an Al–20Sn (mass%) alloy to improve its mechanical properties through the Equal Channel Angular Pressing (ECAP) process is presented and discussed. Al–20Sn (mass%) alloy samples with a ...
Spatial genetic structure in the saddled sea bream (Oblada melanura [Linnaeus, 1758]) suggests multi-scaled patterns of connectivity between protected and unprotected areas in the Western Mediterranean Sea
(2016-04-01)
Marine protected areas (MPAs) and networks of MPAs are advocated worldwide for the achievement of marine conservation objectives. Although the knowledge about population connectivity is considered fundamental for the optimal ...
Experimental Validation of the Structural Fuse Concept
(2008-06-30)
Seismic design relies on inelastic deformations through hysteretic behavior. However, this translates into damage on structural elements, permanent system deformations following an earthquake, and possibly high cost for ...
Increase In Simple Precipitation Intensity Index In Panama
(2011-09-30)
The paper describes trends in climate change indices in the Republic of Panama by using long-term
meteorological data sets from the Panama Canal and MRI-AGCM. Simple precipitation intensity index
from eleven climate change ...

(2013-12-18)
The present investigation was focused on the variations in rainwater infiltration experienced by soils of Gamboa zone (Panama Canal Watershed) during various seasons of the year, employing a time-lapse analysis of electrical ...
Composition, Diversity, and Tree Structure of a Tropical Moist Forest in Gamboa, Colon, Panama
(2016-03-22)
This study focuses on the floristic diversity of the forest trees found at Cerro Pelado Tropical Hydrology Observatory in Gamboa, Colon, Panama. Field work for the quantitative inventory was carried out in November 2012. ...
Estudio teórico de capacidad de deformación de soportes esbeltos de hormigón armado con fibras de acero sometidos a esfuerzos combinados de axil y carga lateral
(2012-10)
El estudio de la ductilidad es muy importante en elementos estructurales sometidos a esfuerzos combinados, ya que nos determina la capacidad de resistencia y a la deformación. Actualmente son escasos los ensayos experimentales ...
Household stored water quality in an intermittent water supply network in Panama
(Journal of Water, Sanitation and Hygiene for Development washdev2020156Journal of Water, Sanitation and Hygiene for Development washdev2020156, 2020-04-08)
Safe water storage is critical to preserve water quality, especially when intermittent piped drinking water supply creates a need for household storage. This study characterized household storage practices and stored water ...
Modeling Short-Term Soil−Water Distribution of Aromatic Amines
(1998-12-08)
The applicability of a distributed parameter model for describing the distribution of aniline and α-naphthylamine between soil and aqueous phases at short contact times was assessed. Mass action equations considered in the ...
