The Effect of Back Belt on Maximum Displacement and Center of Pressure Velocity in Different Lifting Styles

Physical Treatments, 2014
Purpose: Mechanical loading is said to be an important factor in the development of low back pain (LBP). One of the main concerns in manual material handling (MMH) tasks is lifting loads, as this activity is present in most jobs.

Narrowing band gap chemically and physically: conductive dense hydrocarbon

Communications Materials
Enhancing intermolecular interactions can reduce the band gap energy of organic molecules. Consequently, certain polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons – typically wide-band-gap insulators – may undergo insulator-to-metal transitions under simple compression ...

Emergent superconductivity in an iron-based honeycomb lattice initiated by pressure-driven spin-crossover

Nature Communications, 2018
Up to now, all iron-based high-T c superconductors contain a square iron lattice. Here, Wang et al. report the observation of superconductivity in an iron honeycomb lattice accompanied with pressure-driven spin-crossover, in-plane lattice collapse and ...

Exciton engineering of 2D Ruddlesden–Popper perovskites by synergistically tuning the intra and interlayer structures

Nature Communications
Designing two-dimensional halide perovskites for high-performance optoelectronic applications requires deep understanding of the structure-property relationship that governs their excitonic behaviors. However, a design framework that considers both intra
