Harnessing Fungal Biowelding for Constructing Mycelium‐Engineered Materials

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Mycelium‐bound composites (MBCs) offer low‐carbon alternatives for construction, yet interfacial bonding remains a critical challenge. This review examines fungal biowelding as a biocompatible adhesive, elucidating mycelium‐mediated interfacial mechanisms and their role in material assembly. Strategies to optimize biowelding are discussed, highlighting

Capturing COVID-19 spread and interplay with multi-hop contact tracing intervention.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2023
A preemptive multi-hop contact tracing scheme that tracks not only the direct contacts of those who tested positive for COVID-19, but also secondary or tertiary contacts has been proposed and deployed in practice with some success.

Contact tracing for HIV infection [PDF]

open access: yesBMJ, 1988
The logistics of contact tracing for human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) are daunting given that 1-1.5 million people are infected in the US. Early infection is often asymptomatic; the incubation period is uncertain; there is no effective treatment for asymptomatic disease; and diagnosis confers few benefits and several disadvantages on the individual ...

Tribological Performance of 60NiTi Alloy Under Varying Contact Conditions and Elevated Temperatures in Linear Reciprocating Sliding

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
This study investigates the tribological response of 60NiTi alloy under dry, water‐lubricated and high‐temperature conditions. The alloy exhibits decreasing wear volume and friction with increasing temperature due to the formation of protective oxide layers. The work clarifies dominant wear mechanisms and demonstrates the suitability of 60NiTi for high‐

Modeling the effects of contact tracing on COVID-19 transmission

open access: yesAdvances in Difference Equations, 2020
In this paper, a mathematical model for COVID-19 that involves contact tracing is studied. The contact tracing-induced reproduction number R q $\mathcal{R}_{q}$ and equilibrium for the model are determined and stabilities are examined.

Four‐Point Bending Tests at High Temperatures on Commercial MgO‐C Refractory Bricks with and Without Recyclate Considering Different Carbon Contents

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Four‐point bending tests are conducted in an argon atmosphere on commercial MgO‐C brick grades with and without MgO‐C recyclate from room temperature up to 1300 °C. No detrimental effect of the MgO‐C recyclates on bending strength is found. Instead, a decisive influence of the total carbon content is observed, with lower total carbon contents ...
