Influence of Curing Age and Mix Composition on Compressive Strength of Volcanic Ash Blended Cement Laterized Concrete [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This study investigates the influence of curing age and mix proportions on the compressive strength of volcanic ash (VA) blended cement laterized concrete. A total of 288 cubes of 100mm dimensions were cast and cured in water for 3, 7, 28, 56, 90 and 120

Numerical validation of a population balance model describing cement paste rheology [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Rheology control is essential during the period in which cement and concrete pastes are encountered in the fresh state, due to the fact that it directly affects workability, initial placement and the structural performance of the hardened material ...

Advances in Stimuli‐Responsive Organic Materials and Polymers toward Intelligent CO2 Capture

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of the relationship between different stimuli and stimuli‐responsive organic materials and polymers for carbon dioxide (CO2) capture. Main stimuli include redox, pH, magnetism, temperature, light, and pressure. Furthermore, multi‐responsive materials, due to their high adaptability and scalability in complex environments, are ...

Facile Deep Brain Electrode Coating with MXene for Improved Electrode Performance

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Facile dip‐coating of commercial carbon fiber electrodes with Ti3C2Tx MXene improves electrical conductivity, reduces impedance, and enables single‐neuron recordings in the rat hippocampus over four weeks. The coating maintains biocompatibility, minimizes inflammation, and remains MRI‐compatible.

Biologically Active Implants Prevent Mortality in a Mouse Sepsis Model

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
A modular, triple‐action titanium implant is developed to prevent implant‐associated infections by repelling bacteria, killing pathogens, and enhancing tissue integration. Coatings with phage cocktails targeting P. aeruginosa and S. aureus show significant bacterial reduction and improved survival in a mouse sepsis model.

Assessment of zonal isolation risk to changes in design parameters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The Well Containment Screening Tool (WCST) focuses on well integrity evaluation after well control incident. The WCST favors a greater wall thickness and, hence, a narrower cementing annulus, potentially increasing the risk of cement loss.

Miniaturized Wireless tDCS With Concentric Electrodes for Targeted Cortical Stimulation in Freely Moving Mice

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This study introduces a wireless and miniaturized concentric‐electrode tDCS (CE‐tDCS) system tailored for freely moving mice. The device enables focal and multi‐site cortical stimulation via a lightweight, Bluetooth‐controlled platform. By integrating local neuromodulation with real‐time behavioral analysis, the system provides a robust tool for ...

An Innovative “Tooth‐On‐Chip” Microfluidic Device Emulating the Structure and Physiology of the Dental Pulp Tissue

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
This work presents a “tooth‐on‐chip” device that mimics dental pulp tissue. By co‐culturing key cell types, it recreates vascular networks, stem cell niches, the odontoblast/dentine interface, and trigeminal innervation. This innovative platform provides a unique model of dental pulp structure and physiology, with significant potential for accelerating
