High toughness, healable, self-cleaning polydimethylsiloxane elastomers with “rigid-while-flexible” mutual network structure

Materials Horizons
The PSiPI elastomer integrates multiple functions and is expected to be applied in outdoor electrical power systems and electronics fields.

Cleaning wrasse species vary with respect to dependency on the mutualism and behavioural adaptations in interactions

Animal Behaviour, 2011
Interspecific mutualisms are an essential feature of life on earth, yet we know little about their evolution and stability. In many mutualisms several species are available as partners, raising questions about the similarity in function and behavioural repertoire depending on the partner species.

The fine line between mutualism and parasitism: complex effects in a cleaning symbiosis demonstrated by multiple field experiments

Oecologia, 2012
Ecological theory and observational evidence suggest that symbiotic interactions such as cleaning symbioses can shift from mutualism to parasitism. However, field experimental evidence documenting these shifts has never been reported for a cleaning symbiosis.

Point-contact spectroscopy of mutual REB 6 (RE = La, Y, Sm, Ce) by automatic in situ cleaning

Journal of Magnetism and Magnetic Materials, 1987
Abstract We report a systematic investigation of the differential resistance d V /d I vs. voltage characteristics of point-contacts between REB 6 -needle on one side and the same REB 6 (100)-cleavage surface on the other in which RE = La, Y, Sm and Ce.

The clean development mechanism and the principles of industrial ecology – exploring the interconnections and mutual opportunities

Progress in Industrial Ecology, An International Journal, 2009
This article explores how Clean Development Mechanism (CDM) projects can be designed and developed, employing some central Industrial Ecology (IE) principles so that they become more transformative. The results of a case study conducted in Thailand are presented and it is shown how IE principles can be used to design a 'biomass-based Combined Heat and ...

Impact of Mutual Solvent Preflush on Scale Squeeze Treatments: Extended Squeeze Lifetime and Improved Well Clean-up Time

8th European Formation Damage Conference, 2009
Abstract The most common method for preventing scale formation is by applying a scale inhibitor squeeze treatment. In this process, a scale inhibitor solution is injected down a producer well into the near wellbore formation. Commonly, scale treatments comprise the following stages: preflush, main scale inhibitor pill, overflush tubing ...

“Just Married”—Clean Energy and Impact Investing: A New ‘Impact Class’ and Catalyst for Mutual Growth

The Journal of Alternative Investments, 2018
A positive matrimonial perspective can readily be applied as an analogy to the burgeoning union of Clean Energy + Impact Investing. While, separately, growing bodies of research exist on both industry segments, there is nothing in the literature that provides a meaningful synergistic assessment of the two, or the new ‘impact’ class into which they fit.

Ontogenetic Shifts and Symbiont Succession in a Freshwater Cleaning Symbiosis Mutualism

Host-symbiont associations and the outcome of symbioses may vary over host ontogeny. I examined how changes in crayfish size can influence their associations with ectosymbiotic branchiobdellidan worms and the consequences of these associations for both the host and the symbiont.

Interactions among Invasive Pacific Red Lionfish, Fish Parasites, and Cleaning Mutualisms Native to Atlantic Coral Reefs

2016
What makes invasive species successful, and how do they affect native populations and communities? I addressed these key questions in the context of the invasion of Atlantic coral reefs by Pacific red lionfish (Pterois volitans). To assess the role of parasites in contributing to the success of this invasion, I compared infection rates of lionfish with
