Performance evaluation of adjusted probabilistic broadcasting in MANETs [PDF]
, 2006 Appropriate use of a probabilistic broadcasting method in MANETs can decrease the number of rebroadcasts, and as a result reduce the opportunity of contention and collision among neighbouring nodes.

Optofluidic Raman Analysis and Capacity Recovery in Li‐ion Cells
Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.Operando Raman spectroscopy is used to monitor the degradation of commercial Li‐ion cells. Using a microfluidic access port, small amounts of electrolyte are sampled into a hollow‐core optical fibre, where fibre‐enhanced Raman analysis reveals Li+ solvation changes and solvent evolution.

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This review identifies key design considerations for insect‐inspired microrobots capable of multimodal locomotion. To draw inspiration, biological and robotic strategies for moving in air, on water surfaces, and underwater are examined, along with approaches for crossing the air–water interface.

The impact of flooding on property prices: A repeat-sales approach
Journal of Environmental Economics and Management, 2019 In this paper we use a repeat-sales model to analyse the price path of properties affected by flooding in England between 1995 and 2014. Our dataset contains information on 4.8 million houses with at least one repeat-sale.

A Mussel‐Inspired Bioadhesive Patch to Selectively Kill Glioblastoma Cells
Advanced Science, EarlyView.An innovative mussel‐inspired bioadhesive patch has been developed for post‐surgical glioblastoma treatment. The patch, which adheres strongly in biological environments, releases a localized treatment. This treatment, acting via reactive oxygen species, shows specific toxicity to glioblastoma cells.
