However, since magnesium is one of the most chemically active metals, its corrosion resistance is one of the key points that limit its use in real conditions. This thesis is divided into three chapters. The first focuses on the corrosion mechanism of pure magnesium and the negative difference effect (NDE). The second is formed by an in-depth study of the native oxide surface films and the corrosion products layers formed on the AZ31 and AZ61 magnesium alloys, along with their influence on corrosion. The third chapter comprises several studies where different strategies to reduce the corrosion rate of magnesium and its alloys were analyzed. Chapter I: Corrosion Mechanisms of Magnesium and the Negative Difference Effect (NDE). Despite the large number of papers published on the corrosion mechanisms of magnesium and its alloys, there are still some issues that have not been sufficiently clarified. Magnesium experiences what in literature is called negative difference effect (NDE). This effect is characterized by an increase in the amount of hydrogen generated at anodic polarization; which is contradictory to the expected behaviour based on the classic electrochemical theory. The NDE phenomenon should be totally understood in order to fully assess the utilities of Mg as an electrode or as a structural material, the latter related to corrosion. Several mechanisms

  • The Mercurian
    The Mercurian : : A Theatrical Translation Review Volume 7, Number 4 (Fall 2019) Editor: Adam Versényi Editorial Assistant: Sarah Booker ISSN: 2160-3316 The Mercurian is named for Mercury who, if he had known it, was/is the patron god of theatrical translators, those intrepid souls possessed of eloquence, feats of skill, messengers not between the gods but between cultures, traders in images, nimble and dexterous linguistic thieves. Like the metal mercury, theatrical translators are capable of absorbing other metals, forming amalgams. As in ancient chemistry, the mercurian is one of the five elementary “principles” of which all material substances are compounded, otherwise known as “spirit.” The theatrical translator is sprightly, lively, potentially volatile, sometimes inconstant, witty, an ideal guide or conductor on the road. The Mercurian publishes translations of plays and performance pieces from any language into English. The Mercurian also welcomes theoretical pieces about theatrical translation, rants, manifestos, and position papers pertaining to translation for the theatre, as well as production histories of theatrical translations. Submissions should be sent to: Adam Versényi at [email protected] or by snail mail: Adam Versényi, Department of Dramatic Art, CB# 3230, The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Chapel Hill, NC 27599-3230. For translations of plays or performance pieces, unless the material is in the public domain, please send proof of permission to translate from the playwright or original creator of the piece. Since one of the primary objects of The Mercurian is to move translated pieces into production, no translations of plays or performance pieces will be published unless the translator can certify that he/she has had an opportunity to hear the translation performed in either a reading or another production-oriented venue.

  • Large Impact Basins on Mercury: Global Distribution, Characteristics, and Modification History from MESSENGER Orbital Data Caleb I
    JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH, VOL. 117, E00L08, doi:10.1029/2012JE004154, 2012 Large impact basins on Mercury: Global distribution, characteristics, and modification history from MESSENGER orbital data Caleb I. Fassett,1 James W. Head,2 David M. H. Baker,2 Maria T. Zuber,3 David E. Smith,3,4 Gregory A. Neumann,4 Sean C. Solomon,5,6 Christian Klimczak,5 Robert G. Strom,7 Clark R. Chapman,8 Louise M. Prockter,9 Roger J. Phillips,8 Jürgen Oberst,10 and Frank Preusker10 Received 6 June 2012; revised 31 August 2012; accepted 5 September 2012; published 27 October 2012. [1] The formation of large impact basins (diameter D ≥ 300 km) was an important process in the early geological evolution of Mercury and influenced the planet’s topography, stratigraphy, and crustal structure. We catalog and characterize this basin population on Mercury from global observations by the MESSENGER spacecraft, and we use the new data to evaluate basins suggested on the basis of the Mariner 10 flybys. Forty-six certain or probable impact basins are recognized; a few additional basins that may have been degraded to the point of ambiguity are plausible on the basis of new data but are classified as uncertain. The spatial density of large basins (D ≥ 500 km) on Mercury is lower than that on the Moon. Morphological characteristics of basins on Mercury suggest that on average they are more degraded than lunar basins. These observations are consistent with more efficient modification, degradation, and obliteration of the largest basins on Mercury than on the Moon. This distinction may be a result of differences in the basin formation process (producing fewer rings), relaxation of topography after basin formation (subduing relief), or rates of volcanism (burying basin rings and interiors) during the period of heavy bombardment on Mercury from those on the Moon.

They designed the theme and the program, vetted seminars and papers, organized the schedule and the program, and carried out the seemingly endless tasks involved in a conference of this size. We would like to thank Paul Gooch, president of Victoria University, and Domenico Pietropaolo, principal of St. Michael’s College, for their generous donation of rooms. Their enthusiasm for the conference made it possible. The bulk of the program organizing at the Toronto end (everything to do with the assignment of rooms and the accommodation of seminars—a massive task) was done by Myra Bloom, Ronald Ng, and Sarah O’Brien. The heroic job they performed required them to set aside their own research for a period. Alex Beecroft and Andy Anderson did the organizing at the ACLA end and always reassured us that this was possible. We would like to acknowledge the generosity of the Departments of Classics, English, Philosophy, Religion, the Centre for Medieval Studies, the Centre for Diaspora and Transnational Studies, and the Jackman Humanities Institute, all of which donated rooms; and the generous financial support accorded by the Faculty of Arts and Science, East Asian Studies, English, Philosophy, Medieval Studies, Classics, French, German, Diaspora and Transnational Studies (and Ato Quayson in particular), the Emilio Goggio Chair in Italian Studies, Spanish and Portuguese, and Slavic Studies.
