Creep tests at different stress levels and temperatures were conducted using a “home-built” creep test device. A commercial equipment of Digital Image Correlation technique was implemented for the measurement of the time-dependent strains. The linear viscoelastic behavior regimes were determined by evaluating the creep compliance for each stress and temperature condition. Then, the creep curves obtained were fitted to a characteristic creep model, enabling the calculation of the viscoelastic parameters of each material. It was observed that the tested elastomers exhibited different elastic and viscous parameters, which were found to decrease with temperature. Particularly, it was observed that silicon rubber showed large instantaneous (elastic) strain and a small viscous deformation, whereas the Flouroelastomer rubber exhibited moderate strain curves, even at very high temperatures (100 °C and 120 °C), showing the highest creep resistance and the wider regime of linear viscoelastic behavior.

La enfermedad se debe, parcialmente, a las alteraciones postraduccionales que experimenta la proteína tau y que favorecen su polimerización anormal formando fibrillas y marañas neurofibrilares. La tau es una proteína intrínsecamente desordenada, es decir, no posee una estructura bien definida. Una técnica eficaz en el estudio de este tipo de proteínas es la dinámica molecular. En este trabajo se utilizó dinámica molecular empleando el campo de fuerza SIRAH (del inglés: Southamerican Initiative for a Rapid and Accurate Hamiltonian) para modelar dos sistemas distintos de tau, cada uno con dos moléculas de proteína. En el primer sistema las dos proteínas están inmersas únicamente en agua (representada como solvente explícito) y en el segundo sistema, además del solvente, se agregaron iones para investigar la influencia de cargas en la posible agregación de tau. A partir de la trayectoria de 1 µs a una temperatura de 310 K, se analizaron los cambios estructurales que experimentaron los monómeros de tau. En ambos sistemas, las proteínas presentaron cambios importantes respecto a la configuración inicial; existiendo algunas diferencias en la estructura secundaria acorde a la presencia o ausencia de iones. Identificamos que, en ambos sistemas, no hay evidencia de un proceso agregativo. Los resultados validaron el uso del campo de fuerza SIRAH para estudiar proteínas de gran tamaño y la factibilidad de alcanzar escalas temporales y espaciales cercanas a las experimentales. Además, el análisis conformacional de las trayectorias obtenidas ofrece, por primera vez, una perspectiva desde la dinámica molecular de la forma en que interactúan dos proteínas tau completas, lo cual contribuye a la comprensión del fenómeno y a la identificación de las regiones de interacción proteína-proteína.","PeriodicalId":21538,"journal":{"name":"Revista Mexicana De Fisica","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43005811","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The proposed model used to study, in an atomic scale, this complex phenomenon of adsorption governed by several factors including surface vacancies defects and water flux. The findings of the solution of the system of equations in the steady state case, presented in this paper, strongly indicated that the rate coverage of surface oxygen vacancies has an important role in the dissociation of H2O as well as the flux which is a key factor in the behavior of water adsorption on the TiO2 (110) and the rate coverage of OH groups.","PeriodicalId":21538,"journal":{"name":"Revista Mexicana De Fisica","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.7,"publicationDate":"2023-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46817449","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"物理与天体物理","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This work shows a study based on seasonal analysis of spatio-temporal data through second order structure function to and the scale behavior in power law by using the Hurst exponent (H) and analyzing the trend of fluctuations associated with O3 pollution concentration records at four monitoring stations in the Metropolitan Area of Mexico City (MAMC) considering the four season of the year.

We planned, designed, built, characterized and operated an experimental system based on 10 × 10 cm Aluminium plates of various thicknesses and the photodiode Hamamatsu S12572-100P with which we show evidences of photon production in Aluminium due to cosmic rays incidence. We detected signals between violet and infrared with a minimum of dark counts, with approximately the same intensity, the same proportion between the different colors, and we show that they have characteristics that we associate with photons: absorption, reflection, refraction, dispersion and polarization, then we concluded that the detected signals must be produced by photons. The photons are produced inside the material by the incidence of cosmic rays. We observed that the greater the thickness of Aluminium traversed the greater the number of photons produced, in concordance with the very well known result that the greater the thickness of Aluminium traversed by the particle the greater the deposited energy.
