Rather, it is a powerful authoritarian state with a fast-growing economy, a rapidly modernising military and bold global ambition. How should Australia respond to the seemingly unstoppable and dazzlingly swift rise of China? To mark the 40th anniversary of diplomatic relations between Australia and the People's Republic of China, expert writers - from Australia and China - come together here to analyse how both countries relate to each other. They cast light on security and economic issues, trade and investment, and poAustraliaCommerceChinaAustraliaForeign relationsChinaChinaCommerceAustraliaElectronic books.382.0994051Yuan Jing DongReilly James1972-MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910479893203321Australia and China at 402441212UNINA01253nam 2200361 450 991022995640332120160620165213.0(CKB)1000000000279566(ItFiC)it 04230787(EXLCZ)99100000000027956620060828d2004 uy 0itaL'antiamericanismo in Italia e in Europa nel secondo dopoguerra [electronic resource] /a cura di Piero Craveri, Gaetano QuagliarielloSoveria Mannelli (Catanzaro) Rubbettino2004573 p. illLe ragioni degli storici ;7Proceedings, Naples, 2002.8849806328 Includes bibliographical references.Anti-AmericanismItalyHistoryAnti-AmericanismEuropeHistoryUnited StatesForeign public opinion, EuropeanAnti-AmericanismHistory.Anti-AmericanismHistory.327Craveri Piero176471Quagliariello Gaetano16831ItFiCItFiCBOOK9910229956403321L'antiamericanismo in Italia e in Europa nel secondo dopoguerra2430827UNINA06169nam 2201825z- 450 991040408830332120231214132841.03-03928-581-5(CKB)4100000011302255(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/44954(EXLCZ)99410000001130225520202102d2020 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierDevelopment of Unconventional ReservoirsMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20201 electronic resource (522 p.)3-03928-580-7 The need for energy is increasing and but the production from conventional reservoirs is declining quickly. This requires an economically and technically feasible source of energy for the coming years. Among some alternative future energy solutions, the most reasonable source is from unconventional reservoirs. As the name “unconventional” implies, different and challenging approaches are required to characterize and develop these resources. This Special Issue covers some of the technical challenges for developing unconventional energy sources from shale gas/oil, tight gas sand, and coalbed methane.horizontal wellshale gasshock loadspseudo-steady-state non-equilibrium sorptionunsteady state non-equilibrium sorptionporosity–permeabilityfractured-vuggy reservoirsflow channelpressure derivativetotal organic carbon (TOC)CO2 huff-n-puffflow behaviorunconventional reservoirssemi-analytical modelgravel packoptimization measuresfractureslab tests under reservoir conditiondual-porosity systemunconventionalgravity differentiationMICPperforation safetyfracture penetration extentorganic-rich shalestress-dependent permeabilityequilibrium sorptionhelium porosimetrynumerical modeloriginal gas in-placeshale alterationinjection and production patternadsorption and desorption isothermslow-pressure gas adsorptioninitial water saturationdrilling fluidsorption hysteresiscoalbed methanegas contentcapillary numberreorientation fractureswater flooding effectorganic porestight reservoircondensate recoveryLangmuir pressureKlinkenberg slippage theorylimestone and calcareous mudstone interbeddingpetrophysicstight gas sandnumerical analysisnorthern Guizhouwettabilitypeak pressuresand controlwater imbibitionclay bound watercarbon dioxide sequestrationadsorption capacitygas compressibility factorsconvolutional neural networkmulti-stage fracturing horizontal wellsfractured tight reservoirphysical modeltight gas reservoirsautomatic classificationNMRcatalytic oxidation characteristicsmicro-CT imagewellbore stabilitygas adsorption and desorptiongas shalemedium volatile bituminous coalhydraulic flow unitsGEM®petrophysical propertiescompositional 3Drock-water-CO2 interactionsource-mixed gasresidual gas distributionoxidation reaction pathwaycoal rankoil migrationclay contentperforated stringTOC recoveryComputer Modelling Group (CMG)capillary trappingpore size distributionadsorptiontight reservoirswell interferencegradation optimizationshale gas condensate reservoirNiutitang formationpulse decay testwell testingLangmuir modelmethane adsorption capacitypore structureand tight sand gas)ultra-deep welldeepwater wellorthogonal testhigh pressure and low flowratetheoretical modelsafety analysistransient pressurecatalyst-activated low temperature oxidationreservoir simulationLangmuir volumeair floodingpetrographytotal organic carbonelectrical resistivitydiffusion coefficientequation of stateporosityzeta potentialgas permeability measurementco-exploitationnuclear magnetic resonanceChangqing tight oilvisual experimenttight oil reservoirscaprock integritycoal measure gases (coalbed gasNIST-RefpropRezaee Rezaauth1322270BOOK9910404088303321Development of Unconventional Reservoirs3036846UNINA05551nam 2201489z- 450 991055770560332120231214133415.0(CKB)5400000000046223(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/68639(EXLCZ)99540000000004622320202105d2020 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierNatural Products and NeuroprotectionBasel, SwitzerlandMDPI - Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute20201 electronic resource (338 p.)3-03936-216-X 3-03936-217-8 Neurodegenerative diseases, including Alzheimer’s, Parkinson’s, Huntington’s, and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, are the most common pathologies of the central nervous system currently without a cure. They share common molecular and cellular characteristics, including protein misfolding, mitochondrial dysfunction, glutamate toxicity, dysregulation of calcium homeostasis, oxidative stress, inflammation, and ageing, which contribute to neuronal death. Efforts to treat these diseases are often limited by their multifactorial etiology. Natural products, thanks to their multitarget activities, are considered promising alternatives for the treatment of neurodegeneration. This book deals with two different forms of natural products: extracts and isolated compounds. The study of the bioactivity of the extracts is extremely important as many studies have demonstrated the synergistic effect of the combination of different natural products. On the other hand, the investigation of the activity of specifically isolated natural products can be also important to understand their cellular and molecular mechanisms and to define the specific bioactive components in extracts or foods. This book can be considered an important contribution to knowledge of the neuroprotective effect of natural products and presents a great deal of information, related to both the benefits but also the limitations of their use in counteracting neurodegeneration.Research & information: generalbicsscBiology, life sciencesbicsscVitamin DMultiple Sclerosissymptomneurodegenerationoxidative injuryParkinson's diseaseterpenes, rotenonethymolAlzheimer's diseaseCentella asiaticahippocampusprotein poshophatase 2glycogen synthase kinase 3B-cell lymphoma 2neuroprotectionnutraceuticalsbioavailabilitystress responseneurodegenerative diseasebioactive compoundnatural extractβ-amyloid peptidetau proteinclinical trialhuman studiesanimal studiesin vitro studiescurcuminfree radicalsheme oxygenasesafety profiletype 2 diabetesinflammationvascular damagelearningmemorynatural compoundoxidative stresscognitive dysfunctioncell deathsynapse lossprotein aggregationneuroinflammationalgaeseaweedsneurodegenerative diseasesauraptenedopamine neuronantioxidantmitochondriaChionanthus retususflavonoidflowerHO-1NOLippia citriodoraVEEVsrelaxationdepressioncyclic AMPcalciumblood-brain barriercatechincognitionepigallocatechin gallategreen teamicrobiota5-(3,5-dihydroxyphenyl)-γ-valerolactoneascaroside pheromoneC. elegansdauerneuronal signalingsexual behaviorsurvival signalsproteostasischaperonesautophagyubiquitin-proteasomeunfolded protein responsenatural compoundsnatural productsethicspatients' autonomybeneficencenonmaleficencemedical liabilityParkinson's disease (PD)mitochondrial dysfunctiondynamicshormesisubiquitin‒proteasome system (UPS)mitophagyResearch & information: generalBiology, life sciencesAngeloni Cristinaedt1299450Vauzour DavidedtAngeloni CristinaothVauzour DavidothBOOK9910557705603321Natural Products and Neuroprotection3025178UNINA02136nam 2200445z- 450 991022004090332120231214133330.0(CKB)3800000000216368(oapen)https://directory.doabooks.org/handle/20.500.12854/43672(EXLCZ)99380000000021636820202102d2016 |y 0engurmn|---annantxtrdacontentcrdamediacrrdacarrierComponents of the language-ready brainFrontiers Media SA20161 electronic resource (132 p.)Frontiers Research Topics2-88919-893-6 This volume highlights new avenues of research in the language sciences, and particularly, in the neurobiology of language. The term “language-ready brain” stresses, on the one hand, the importance of a brain-based description of our species’ linguistic capacity, and, on the other, the need to appreciate the crucial role culture plays in shaping the linguistic systems children acquire and adults use. For this reason, the focus is not put on language per se, but on our learning biases and cognitive pre-dispositions toward language. Both brain and culture are considered at two crucial levels of inquiry: phylogeny and ontogeny. In a fast-growing field like the language sciences and specifically, language evolution studies, this book has tried to capture several of the most exciting topics explored currently, sowing seeds for future investigations.globularizationphonologybrain oscillationsBrain asymmetrylanguage developmentmergeSpeechLanguage productionlanguage-readinesstemporal attentionRetinoic acidCommunicationAntonio Benitez-Burracoauth1255510Cedric BoeckxauthBOOK9910220040903321Components of the language-ready brain3033047UNINA
