First order prism slip in yttrium single crystals containing a total interstitial impurity content of about 200 wt ppm is almost entirely stage II deformation with a work hardening rate θ/μ of 2·10⁻ ³ . The athermal temperature is about 300°K. Below this temperature an interstitial mechanism is rate controlling...
A two-year field study was made of a population of the California
Sea Mussel, Mytilus californianus, located on a protected tidal bench
at Yaquina Head on the Central Oregon Coast. This animal was
chosen because it is attached to the rocks, filters particulate matter
