Adaptive Wetting—Adaptation in Wetting [PDF]

open access: yesLangmuir, 2018
Many surfaces reversibly change their structure and interfacial energy upon being in contact with a liquid. Such surfaces adapt to a specific liquid. We propose the first order kinetic model to describe dynamic contact angles of such adaptive surfaces. The model is general and does not refer to a particular adaptation process.

Pattern of fin rays along the antero-posterior axis based on their connection to distal radials

open access: yesZoological Letters, 2019
Background Teleost paired fins are composed of two endoskeletal domains, proximal and distal radials, and an exoskeletal domain, the fin ray. The zebrafish pectoral fin displays elaborately patterned radials along the anteroposterior (AP) axis.

Adaptability: Does Students’ Adjustment to University Predict Their Mid-Course Academic Achievement and Satisfaction? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Individual differences in ‘adaptability’–cognitive, behavioural, and emotional adjustment in the face of change, novelty, and uncertainty–are theorised to influence students’ academic achievement and course satisfaction; although the literature examining

A high-resolution temperature–salinity dataset observed by autonomous underwater vehicles for the evolution of mesoscale eddies and associated submesoscale processes in the South China Sea [PDF]

open access: yesEarth System Science Data
Marginal seas are often characterized by dynamic mesoscale eddies (MEs), whose evolution plays a critical role in regulating global oceanic energy budgets, triggering submesoscale processes with strong vertical velocity, and facilitating biogeochemical ...

Study on the Impact of Air Pressure on the Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy of Intumescent Fireproof Coatings

open access: yesApplied Sciences
Intumescent fireproof coatings protect steel structures and cables by forming a thick, fire-resistant layer under high temperatures. These coatings can deteriorate over time, impacting their fire resistance. Current testing methods are largely lab-based,
