Measuring thermal conductivity and water suction for variably saturated bentonite

Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2021
An engineered barrier system (EBS) for the disposal of high-level radioactive waste (HLW) is composed of a disposal canister with spent fuel, a buffer material, a gap-filling material, and a backfill material.

Kinetic Barrier Diagrams to Visualize and Engineer Molecular Nonequilibrium Systems

Small, 2023
Abstract Molecular nonequilibrium systems hold great promises for the nanotechnology of the future. Yet, their development is slowed by the absence of an informative representation. Indeed, while potential energy surfaces comprise in principle all the information, they hide the dynamic interplay of multiple reaction pathways ...

Experiments on thermo-hydro-mechanical behaviour of Opalinus Clay at Mont Terri rock laboratory, Switzerland

Journal of Rock Mechanics and Geotechnical Engineering, 2017
Repositories for deep geological disposal of radioactive waste rely on multi-barrier systems to isolate waste from the biosphere. A multi-barrier system typically comprises the natural geological barrier provided by the repository host rock – in our case

Establishing an Apheresis Medicine Program in a Resource‐Constrained Setting: A 5‐Year Experience From Lagos, Nigeria

Therapeutic Apheresis and Dialysis, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Establishing a comprehensive apheresis medicine program in a resource‐constrained setting presents significant structural, financial, and logistical challenges. Despite the growing clinical importance of apheresis services globally, published experience from sub‐Saharan Africa remains sparse.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

POTENSI LINGKUNGAN KAWASAN NUKLIR SERPONG DAN EVALUASI KESELAMATAN UNTUK TAPAK FASILITAS BOREHOLE DISPOSAL LIMBAH SUMBER RADIASI BEKAS

Urania, 2023
Penyimpanan lestari terhadap sumber radiasi bekas (disused sealed radioactive sources = DSRS) masih menghadapi beberapa rintangan, antara lain karena DSRS umumnya berumur paro panjang, tingkat radiasi gamma-photon tinggi, sulitnya opsi untuk dikembalikan

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

Systems engineering barriers to legacy system evolution: Legacy system assessment

Systems Engineering
Abstract This study evaluates the effectiveness of common engineering processes in conducting system assessments, with a focus on legacy system assessments, which are currently a barrier to legacy system evolution. These processes include reverse systems engineering (RSE), which remains in its infancy, and more established processes ...
