Different Modelling Purposes
(Journal of Artificial Societies and Social Simulation, 2019-06-30)How one builds, checks, validates and interprets a model depends on its ‘purpose’. This is true even if the same model code is used for di erent purposes. This means that a model built for one purpose ... -
Influence of the carbon incorporation on the mechanical properties of TiB2 thin films prepared by HiPIMS
(International Journal of Refractory Metals and Hard Materials. Vol.107 (2022), 105884, 2022-09)Nanostructured TiB2 and TiBC thin films with carbon contents up to 11 at. % were prepared by physical vapor deposition using high power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS) technology. The influence ... -
A study of deformation and strain induced in bulk by the oxide layers formation on a Fe-Cr-Al alloy in high-temperature liquid Pb-Bi eutectic
(Acta Materialia. Vol.151 (2018), p.301-309, 2018-06-01)At elevated temperatures, heavy liquid metals and their alloys are known to create a highly corrosive environment that causes irreversible degradation of most iron-based materials. It has been found ... -
Nb–C thin films prepared by DC-MS and HiPIMS: Synthesis, structure, and tribomechanical properties
(Surface and Coatings Technology. Vol.422 (2021), 127569, 2021-09-25)Nanostructured Nb-C thin films were prepared by direct current magnetron sputtering (DC-MS) and high-power impulse magnetron sputtering (HiPIMS). The films were characterized in depth by X-ray diffraction ... -
Auditor-provided tax services and tax avoidance: evidence from Spain
(Spanish Journal of Finance and Accounting / Revista Española de Financiacion y Contabilidad, 2020-03-05)We investigate the relationship between auditor-provided tax services (APTS) and tax avoidance in Spain. As a result of a recently enacted EU legislation, APTS is seriously restricted within the EU. The ... -
