Polymers are widely used in different types of industries ranging from microelectronics, medical to space applications. However, polymer materials are seldom used in their pristine state and are in need of selective surface treatment to induce a specific response which is a challenging and complex task. Adhesion enhan…
The weak interlayer Van Der Waals material \{beta}-Bi2Pd has recently been established as a strong topological superconductor candidate with unconventional spin-triplet pairing and Majorana zero modes at vortices. In this letter, we study the topological characters and the superconducting pairing, which are still obsc…
The Yangtze River basin is distributed across subtropical monsoon climate regions, and has four seasons, including a hot rainy season. These climatic conditions provide favorable conditions for paddy-upland rotation. This paper summarizes the spatiotemporal changes in soil potassium (K) and K cycles in soil-plant syst…
Pada industri pengolahan logam khususnya baja, pendinginan yang dilakukan kebanyakan dengan proses pendinginan pancaran, hal ini disebabkan karena baja memiliki dimensi yang besar, berat dan memiliki temperature yang tinggi sehingga sukar diangkat. Sistem pendinginan yang paling cocok adalah sistem pancaran tersebut,…
Ras is a family of related proteins participating in all animal cell lineages and organs. Ras proteins work as GDP-GTP binary switches and regulate cytoplasmic signalling networks that are able to control several cellular processes, playing an essential role in signal transduction pathways involved in cell growth, dif…
The fracture toughness of Al/SiC nanolaminates with different layer thicknesses (in the range 10 to 100 nm) was measured by means of micropillar splitting and bending of a notched beam. The crack plane was perpendicular to the layers in the former while notched beams with the notch parallel and perpendicular to the la…
Solid-state refrigerants that exhibit electrically driven reversible thermal changes, known as electrocaloric (EC) effects, represent a potentially eco-friendly alternative to the greenhouse gases currently used as refrigerants in refrigerators and heat pumps. The phenomenology of EC effects is first briefly discussed…
Non-wettable surfaces have recently attracted significant attention due to their enormous promising applications. These applications are primarily due to their ability to repel liquid drops and remain unwetted. In this review, the various names used in describing non-wettable surfaces are given. This is followed by th…
With recent developments in nanotechnology, nanocomposite adhesives offer numerous advantages compared to conventional adhesive materials. Moreover, with the emergence of commercial nanomaterials such as: Nanoclays (NCs), Carbon nanotubes (CNTs), Nanosilica (NS), Polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS), Tungsten…
In the past few decades continuous and successful development of various nanomaterials has caused revolution due to the gained prominence in technological advancements and their industrial applications. On the other hand, the work on bioadhesive systems has gained prominence as these systems can adhere to mucus which…
Steel and its alloys are the most commonly used materials in industries such as bearing, automotive, aerospace, manufacturing including medical sector for fabrication of different types of components and products because of their light weight. But these materials have restricted use in extreme conditions environments…
The development of a highly specific drug delivery system (DDS) for anti-cancer therapeutics is an area of intense research focus. Chemical engineering of a “smart” DDS to specifically target tumor cells has gained interest, designed for safer, more efficient, and effective use of chemotherapeutics for the treatment o…
Abstract Although copper is in many cases an essential micronutrient for cellular life, higher concentrations are toxic. Therefore, all living cells have developed strategies to maintain copper homeostasis. In this manuscript, we have analysed the transcriptome-wide response of Pyrococcus furiosus to increased copper…
Transition metal carbides/nitrides (MXenes) are a newly developing class of two-dimensional (2D) materials with technically robust properties that can be finely tuned by planar surface functionalization. Herein, the critical role of oxygen (O-) functionalization on the tensile mechanical characteristics of thinnest 2D…
[pt] Este trabalho discute experimentalmente a utilização de fibras naturais em compósitos cimentícios para o reforço de elementos estruturais de concreto. Para tal, foram analisadas a morfologia e a durabilidade de fibras de curauá, cânhamo e sisal, bem como suas propriedades mecânicas. Dentre as fibras estudadas, o…
ABSTRACT Biomineralization is the process by which organisms use minerals to harden their tissues and provide them with physical support. Biomineralizing cells concentrate the mineral in vesicles that they secret into a dedicated compartment where crystallization occurs. The dynamics of vesicle motion and the molecula…
Quantum technology has grown out of quantum information theory and now provides a valuable tool that researchers from numerous fields can add to their toolbox of research methods. To date, various systems have been exploited to promote the application of quantum information processing. The systems that can be used for…
Recently, the possibility of inducing superconductivity for electrons in two dimensional materials has been proposed via cavity-mediated pairing. The cavity-mediated electron-electron interactions are long range, which has two main effects: firstly, within the standard BCS-type pairing mediated by adiabatic photons, t…
Abstract Drop rebound after collision with a very hot substrate is usually attributed to the Leidenfrost effect, [1-5] characterized by intensive film boiling in a thin vapour gap between the liquid and substrate. Similarly, drop impact onto a cold superhydrophobic substrate [6-8] leads to a complete drop rebound, des…
Chitosan-catechol conjugates are a novel class of bioadhesive polymers which are used in specific/target drug delivery systems to bind the drug to the mucosal lining. Preparation of chitosan-catechol conjugates by chemical, electrochemical and enzymatic methods has been discussed. Different characterization techniques…
