Optimal cut-off points for waist circumference in the definition of metabolic syndrome in Chile
(Cambridge University Press, 2020-11)
Objective: To identify sex-specific cut-off points for waist circumference (WC) in the definition of metabolic syndrome (MetS) for the Chilean adult population. Design: MetS was defined as the presence of at least two out ...
Phase space classification of an Ising cellular automaton: The Q2R model
(Elsevier Ltd., 2020-04)
An exact classification of the different dynamical behaviors that exhibits the phase space of a reversible and conservative cellular automaton, the so-called Q2R model, is shown in this paper. Q2R is a cellular automaton ...

(IOP Publishing Ltd., 2020-07)
The conditions for the formation of < 100 & rang; dislocation loops in body-centered cubic (BCC) iron were investigated via molecular dynamics simulations using a simplified model intended to mimic conditions in high energy ...
Hydrogen effects on the mechanical properties of nanocrystalline free-standing Palladium thin films
(Elsevier Ltd., 2020-05)
Pd membranes are used both in hydrogen detection and hydrogen separation devices. Their properties can be improved at the nanometer scale. We simulate atomistically the tensile properties of Pd mono and polycrystalline ...
