Affordances of Virtual environments do design media change the interaction with the design representation?

open access: yes, 2008
The paper focuses on characterising design environments and on identifying design behaviour in different collaborative virtual environments and discusses the behaviour change based on the affordances theory.

Affordance based interactive genetic algorithm (ABIGA)

open access: yesDesign Science, 2018
Designers can involve users in the design process. The challenge lies in reaching multiple users and finding the best way to use their input in the design process.

Exploring an Alternative to mRNA Vaccine Cold Chain Storage: MRNA‐Lipid Nanoparticle Stability When Dried in a Polymer Matrix

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The nanostructure, size, and function of mRNA‐loaded lipid nanoparticles are evaluated before drying, within polymer microneedles, and after rehydration. The results reveal the polymer and LNP loadings required to recover nanostructure and preserve the delivery performance in dry‐state formulations.

Nanoengineered Binetworks in Multifunctional Anionic Block Polymer Mesoblends for Improved Mechanical Properties

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Mesoblends consist of a nanostructured polymer into which a second polymer is imbibed with a selective solvent. In this work, a solvent‐templatable pentablock terpolymer possessing a sulfonated midblock is modified with a hydrophilic polymer that is photocrosslinked in situ, yielding a hierarchical binetwork.

Using studies of collaborative activity in physical environments to inform the design of digital libraries : Technical Report CSEG/11/1998 [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
This paper considers how studies of collaborative activities in the real world can be used to aid in the design of digital libraries. We describe two studies of collaboration in physical environments.

Merging affordances and (abstract) concepts

open access: yes, 2022
The notion of affordance posits important challenges for the investigation of language and abstract concepts. Studies on affordances and language indicate that language is grounded in the sensorimotor system and also that language filters and selects ...

Digitally Mediated Protest: Social Media Affordances for Collective Identity Construction

open access: yesSocial Media + Society, 2018
Many scholars discuss the role of social media in the context of social movements, but there remain major disagreements regarding the precise role that social media plays.

Tailoring Li‐ion Storage and Transport in Two‐Dimensional Conjugated Metal‐Organic Frameworks via Precise Nitrogen Incorporation

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Two nitrogen‐doped 2D conjugated metal‐organic frameworks (2D c‐MOFs, namely Cu‐Nx‐OHBA, x = 2 or 4) are synthesized, featuring precise nitrogen incorporation via rational ligand design. The Cu‐Nx‐OHBA 2D c‐MOFs are largely tailorable by varying skeletal nitrogen density, with respect to electrical conductivity, Li‐storage capacitance, and Li‐transport
