W obronie umiarkowanego abolicjonizmu

Chrześcijaństwo-Świat-Polityka, 2016
Ks. Andrzej Szostek MIC w artykule W obronie umiarkowanego abolicjonizmu broni tezy, iż nauczanie Kościoła w sprawie kary śmierci określić można mianem umiarkowanego abolicjonizmu. Jego zdaniem, podejście to zakłada, iż kara śmierci jest moralnie naganna,

Photonic crystal fibres: mapping Maxwell’s equations onto a Schrödinger equation eigenvalue problem [PDF]

Journal of the European Optical Society-Rapid Publications, 2006
We consider photonic crystal fibres (PCFs) made from arbitrary base materials and introduce a short-wavelength approximation which allows for a mapping of the Maxwell’s equations onto a dimensionless eigenvalue equations which has the form of the ...

Tailoring the Properties of Functional Materials With N‐Oxides

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The properties of materials bearing N‐oxide groups are often dominated by the polar N+─O− bond. It provides hydrophilicity, selective ion‐binding, electric conductivity, or antifouling properties. Many of the underlying mechanisms have only recently been discovered, and the interest in N‐oxide materials is rapidly growing.

An Ultrafast Self‐Gelling Versatile Hydrogel for Rapid Infected Burn Wound Repair in Military Medicine

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A self‐gelling PG@PAC (POD/Gel‐CDH@PA/CHX) powder is developed for infected burn care in austere settings. Upon contact with wound exudate, it instantly forms an adhesive hydrogel, providing simultaneous hemostasis, broad‐spectrum antibacterial activity, reactive oxygen species scavenging, and immunomodulation. In a murine model of S.

Establishing Urban Industrial Parks to Drive Regional Innovation System

International Journal of Automation and Smart Technology, 2012
Over the past five decades, a total of more than 150 industrial parks have been developed in Taiwan by the central government, local governments and the private sector. There has often been intense competition between individual industrial parks, because

Biointerface Membranes Orchestrating Site‐Specific Osteoimmunomodulatory and Antibacterial Effects for Enhanced Osseous Regeneration in Periodontal Therapy

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Here, a biointerface membrane engineered with site‐specific interfacial properties is developed. During implantation between gingival and bone defect, the membrane creates a pro‐osteogenic microenvironment, precisely modulates cellular activities at each biointerface, and facilitates the orchestration of complex healing events, ultimately leading to ...

Two‐Way Shape Memory Alloy and Polymer Composite Hybrid Smart Actuator With High Speed, Accuracy, and Reversible Deformation

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Tailored thermo‐mechanical properties of shape memory polymer composites enable large reversible deformation as well as high actuation speed. Moreover, a structural design with curvature in the transverse direction achieves sub‐second actuation on heating and a larger recovery ratio on cooling. Finally, these newly developed smart two‐way actuators can

Therapy-induced modulation of tumor vasculature and oxygenation in a murine glioblastoma model quantified by deep learning-based feature extraction

Scientific Reports
Glioblastoma presents characteristically with an exuberant, poorly functional vasculature that causes malperfusion, hypoxia and necrosis. Despite limited clinical efficacy, anti-angiogenesis resulting in vascular normalization remains a promising ...

Co‐Electrospinning Extracellular Matrix with Polycaprolactone Enables a Modular Approach to Balance Bioactivity and Mechanics of a Multifunctional Bone Wrap

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
The incorporation of nondigested ECM and synthetic polymers into a co‐electrospinning system enables the decoupling of bioactivity and mechanical properties within a single wrap. This technique is used to develop a multifunctional bone wrap that achieves augmented membrane durability, sustained infection control, and enhanced vascularity for use in ...
