Behaviors of Gas-Rich Crystalline Fluid Inclusions
CrystalsA novel behavior of fluid inclusions (FIs) in crystals is reported in this study. Typically, at “high” temperature, FIs in molecular crystals become faceted, adopting the morphology of a single crystal.

Microengineered Gradient Hydrogels for Mechanobiology
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Gradient hydrogels are used to mimic the mechanical heterogeneity in native tissues, offering powerful in vitro platforms to study cell‐material interactions in diverse pathophysiological contexts. Here, we present a comprehensive review of the design and experimental considerations for stiffness gradient hydrogels, discussing exemplary achievements ...

A model-based constraint on CO2 fertilisation [PDF]
, 2013 We derive a constraint on the strength of CO2 fertilisation of the terrestrial biosphere through a “top-down” approach, calibrating Earth system model parameters constrained by the post-industrial increase of atmospheric CO2 concentration.

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.A superhydrophobic 3D cell culture platform enables rapid and consistent formation of heterotypic tumor–stroma clusters, and reveals how physiological shear conditions influence metastatic signaling. Mechanical stimulation of cancer‐associated fibroblasts promotes sustained cytokine secretion and survival‐promoting pathways, showing how multicellular ...

Metaheuristic approaches for the quartet method of hierarchical clustering [PDF]
, 2008 Given a set of objects and their pairwise distances, we wish to determine a visual representation of the data. We use the quartet paradigm to compute a hierarchy of clusters of the objects.

POM‐Based Water Splitting Catalyst Under Acid Conditions Driven by Its Assembly on Carbon Nanotubes
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.A newly‐engineered POM‐based electrocatalyst incorporating non‐innocent counter cations exhibits fast kinetics for either the OER or HER under strongly acidic conditions (1 m H2SO4), depending on whether it is assembled on carbon nanotubes (1@CNT) or physically mixed with them (1/CNT). In water‐splitting tests using a two‐electrode setup, these systems

BatteriesWith the increase in energy density of power batteries, the risk of thermal runaway significantly increases under extreme working conditions. Therefore, this article proposes a biomimetic liquid cooling plate design based on the fractal structure of fir ...

CFD supported modelling of double skin facades in hot arid climates [PDF]
, 2005 Previous simulations predict the possibility of reducing cooling demands in office buildings in hot arid areas if a selective double skin facade is used.

Glyphosate inhibition of ferric reductase activity in iron deficient sunflower roots [PDF]
, 2007 Iron (Fe) deficiency is increasingly being observed in cropping systems with frequent glyphosate applications. A likely reason for this is that glyphosate interferes with root uptake of Fe by inhibiting ferric reductase in roots required for Fe ...

Unravelling the Secret of Sulfur Confinement and High Sulfur Utilization in Hybrid Sulfur‐Carbons
Advanced Materials, EarlyView.Thermal condensation of inverse vulcanized sulfur‐carbon hybrids enables a bottom‐up sulfur confinement strategy, in which a protective carbon phase is progressively constructed around sulfur species. The resulting carbon nanodomains covalently tether sulfur chains and stabilize radical intermediates. This integrated architecture effectively suppresses
