Land management (specifically controlled heather burning) as a factor controlling carbon loss from upland peat soils [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Peatlands contain a significant proportion of the worlds’ total soil carbon, and are commonly assumed to serve as carbon sinks. There is however increasing evidence of carbon loss from peat soils, and DOC concentrations in UK rivers have increased ...

Atomically precise metal cluster enzymes for pathological tissue regeneration

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Schematic illustration of atomically precise metal cluster enzymes (MCEs) for pathological tissue regeneration. Atomically precise MCEs can modulate biological processes, such as attenuation of inflammatory responses, eradication of bacterial pathogens, regulation of angiogenesis, and promotion of cell development.

Burning rates and surface characteristics of hydrogen-enriched turbulent lean premixed methane-air flames

open access: yes, 2009
The burning rates and surface characteristics of hydrogen-enriched turbulent lean premixed methane-air flames were experimentally studied by laser tomography visualization method using a V-shaped flame configuration.

Transfersomes with core and surface‐loaded NF‐κB p65 siRNA for enhanced transdermal transfection and effective treatment of psoriasis

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
TCPL, a transfersome with Tween 80 and PEI, enables efficient transdermal siNF‐κB delivery, resolving PEI's toxicity issue. It promotes lysosomal escape and effective transfection, silences NF‐κB, modulates immunity, and inhibits angiogenesis, alleviating psoriasis. With good biocompatibility, TCPL holds strong clinical translation potential. Schematic

Harnessing blood clot as a native scaffold for orchestrating tissue repairs and regeneration

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
The blood clot, owing to its dynamic composition and unique microenvironment, holds significant yet underappreciated potential for tissue engineering. This review systematically summarizes the pathophysiology of clot formation, the key regulatory factors shaping its microenvironment, and its applications in both pre‐clinical and clinical settings ...

Homologous membrane wrapped ZIF‐8 nanoparticles accelerate differentiation of neural stem cell for spinal cord injury therapy

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Homologous membrane wrapped ZIF‐8 nanoparticles were proposed to improve biocompatibility and targeting ability to neural stem cells (NSCs). ZIF‐8‐SCM NPs exhibit pH responsiveness, thereby generating an intracellular Zn2+ storm to accelerate neural differentiation through calcium and MAPK signaling pathways. Moreover, they promote function recovery in

A Dilating Vortex Particle Method for Compressible Flow with Applications to Aeroacoustics [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Vortex methods have become useful tools for the computation of incompressible fluid flow. In the present work, a vortex particle method for the simulation of unsteady two-dimensional compressible flow is developed and applied to several problems.

Spatial metrics in fire ecology: seeking consistency amidst complexity

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Technological advances, including remote sensing, have led to a proliferation of metrics used in ecological studies to examine spatial patterns of fire regimes and their ecological effects. Researchers can use many different metrics to analyse spatial variation in both fire events and resulting fire regimes, including fire size, shape ...

Energetic particle driven Alfvén eigenmodes and associated energetic particle redistribution in a tokamak burning plasma

open access: yesNuclear Fusion
Energetic-particle driven Alfvén eigenmodes (AEs) and associated redistribution of energetic particles in phase space are investigated using kinetic-magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) hybrid simulations for a tokamak burning plasma with weakly reversed magnetic ...

Heat transfer from swirling impinging jets [PDF]

open access: yes, 1980
This thesis is concerned with the determination of the local and average mass/heat transfer--from swirling jets impinging orthogonally onto flat surfaces.
