A Non‐Reciprocal Architected Porous Medium

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In several fluid flow, energy‐dumping, and energy‐harvesting applications, a dominant flow direction or dominant resistance direction is desirable. In this study, we propose a simple modular geometry that doubles flow resistance in one direction relative to the opposite direction, while maintaining laminar viscous flow.

The Bounds of “Margin of Appreciation” of the State in Restraining Freedom of Expression during the Pandemic [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Constitutional Law, 2020
2020 will certainly become a part of history of the mankind not just due as a healthcare crisis related to COVID-19 (novel Coronavirus), but also as vivid example of a more “coordinated action” of the “civilised nations”, the situation, the management ...

Information Modeling for a Dynamic Representation of an Emergency Situation

open access: yes, 2008
In this paper we propose an approach to build a decision support system that can help emergency planners and responders to detect and manage emergency situations. The internal mechanism of the system is independent from the treated application. Therefore,

Challenge Patient Dispatching in Mass Casualty Incidents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Efficient management of mass casualty incidents is complex, since regular emergency medical services struc-tures have to be switched to a temporary “disaster mode” involving additional operational and tactical struc-tures.

Physicochemical Reinforcement Unlocks Sterilization‐Stable Anisotropic Hydrogels for Cell‐Compatible Mock Arteries

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT In vitro arterial models offer ethical and robust alternatives for vascular research but require cytocompatible materials that replicate physiological mechanics. Poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) hydrogels produced by directional freezing and salting‐out (PVA DFSO) are anisotropic yet lack stability for cell culture. Herein, methacrylated PVA (PVA‐MA)

[The layperson in emergency situation].

open access: yesRevista da Escola de Enfermagem da U S P, 2008
A capacitação do leigo para atendimento precoce em situações de emergência e instituição do suporte básico de vida (SBV) é fundamental para salvar vidas e prevenir seqüelas. O objetivo foi identificar o nível de informação dos leigos sobre abordagem de vítima em emergência. Utilizou-se entrevista estruturada em linguagem não-técnica. Amostra foi de 385

Opportunities of Semiconducting Oxide Nanostructures as Advanced Luminescent Materials in Photonics

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
The review discusses the challenges of wide and ultrawide bandgap semiconducting oxides as a suitable material platform for photonics. They offer great versatility in terms of tuning microstructure, native defects, doping, anisotropy, and micro‐ and nano‐structuring. The review focuses on their light emission, light‐confinement in optical cavities, and

Communication and trust in the bounded confidence model

open access: yes, 2010
The communication process in a situation of emergency is discussed within the Scheff theory of shame and pride. The communication involves messages from media and from other persons.

Spin‐Split Edge States in Metal‐Supported Graphene Nanoislands Obtained by CVD

open access: yesAdvanced Materials, EarlyView.
Combining STM measurements and ab‐initio calculations, we show that zig‐zag edges in graphene nanoislands grown on Ni(111) by CVD retrieve their spin‐polarized edge states after intercalation of a few monolayers of Au. ABSTRACT Spin‐split states localized on zigzag edges have been predicted for different free‐standing graphene nanostructures.
