Self‐Powered Flexible Triboelectric‐Gated Ion‐Gel Transistor for Neuromorphic Tactile Sensing and Human Activity Recognition

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
A fully flexible ion‐gel‐gated graphene‐channel transistor driven by a triboelectric nanogenerator enables self‐powered tactile sensing and synaptic learning. Mimicking spike‐rate‐dependent plasticity, the device exhibits frequency‐selective potentiation and depression, supporting rate‐coded neuromorphic computation even under flex.

Organic pig production – With particular reference to Danish production conditions [PDF]

, 2005
While there is a markedly growth in organically farmed land and in the organic food sector as such in Europe and North America, the organic pig sector has not developed correspondingly in most countries.

Neuromorphic Electronics for Intelligence Everywhere: Emerging Devices, Flexible Platforms, and Scalable System Architectures

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
The perspective presents an integrated view of neuromorphic technologies, from device physics to real‐time applicability, while highlighting the necessity of full‐stack co‐optimization. By outlining practical hardware‐level strategies to exploit device behavior and mitigate non‐idealities, it shows pathways for building efficient, scalable, and ...

"Food Ethics and Religion" [PDF]

, 2016
How does an engagement with religious traditions (broadly construed) illuminate and complicate the task of thinking through the ethics of eating? In this introduction, we survey some of the many food ethical issues that arise within various religious ...

PLANT-BASED MEAT: A SUSTAINABLE ALTERNATIVE TO MEAT

Gıda
Due to the increase in the world population, the amount of meat used in human consumption has also increased in recent years. On the other hand, it is clear that animal-based meat production cannot sustain this growth and results in more pollution, land and water use, greenhouse gas emissions and biodiversity loss than the pollution occurring in plant ...

Unlocking the Full Potential of Zinc Oxide/Cerium Oxide Composite Nanoparticles for Removal of Mixed Pharmaceutical and Dye Pollutants in Water

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
ZnO/CeO2 composite nanoparticles synthesized via a facile hydrothermal method simultaneously degrade ciprofloxacin, tetracycline, methylene blue, and methyl orange in a four‐component mixture under UV irradiation. The Ce3+/Ce4+ redox cycling and oxygen vacancies at the ZnO/CeO2 interface suppress charge recombination and enhance reactive species ...

Ductility Tuning via Cluster Network Characteristics of Porous Components

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Network optimization via cluster characteristics induced by interaction of stress concentration is proposed, demonstrating increased cluster size and dispersion in non‐uniform porous components. The optimized structures exhibit, for the first time, that enhanced ductility and damage progression is controllable through zigzag cluster network designed by
