Biosurfactant production by Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from mining waste: From genomic analysis to development of a polymeric composite for removal of hexavalent chromium

Polymer International, EarlyView.
Biosurfactant was produced by Pseudomonas aeruginosa using andiroba waste from Amazonia. A biosurfactant–alginate composite (Alg/BioS) was successfully synthesized via ionotropic gelation, and achieved up to 70% Cr6+ removal from water. Abstract Environmental contamination by heavy metals represents a significant challenge due to their persistence in ...

Tetrapod sperm length evolution in relation to body mass is shaped by multiple trade-offs

Nature Communications
Sperm length is highly variable across species and many questions about its variation remain open. Although variation in body mass may affect sperm length evolution through its influence on multiple factors, the extent to which sperm length variation is ...

Morphological Stabilization of CsPbBr3 Quantum Dot Films Enabled by PVC‐g‐PMMA Graft Copolymer Encapsulation for Water‐Robust Color Conversion

Small, EarlyView.
Poly(vinyl chloride)‐graft‐poly(methyl methacrylate) encapsulation enabled formation of water‐stable CsPbBr3‐quantum‐dot fims with enhanced photoluminescence (PL) retention upon exposure to water, UV radiation, and ethanol. Time‐dependent ex situ transmission electron microscopy with quantitative particle segmentation identified the coefficient of ...

Can AI be Easy? Lessons Learned From the EZR.py Toolkit

Software: Practice and Experience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Much recent press claims that developers no longer need to read code. We disagree, at least within the domain of tabular software‐engineering (SE) optimization tasks: rows of x$$ x $$ and y$$ y $$ values where the y$$ y $$ values are expensive to obtain.

Low‐Voltage Pulsed GMA‐AM Application for Controlling Heat Input and Improving Deposition Quality of 309LSi Multilayered Structures

steel research international, EarlyView.
This manuscript presents a study on the effects of parameter control of low‐voltage pulsed‐GMA‐AM application for producing 309LSi multilayered build‐ups, which can simultaneously lead to reduced heat input up to 32.1%, enable pulsed‐spray transfer, provide stable depositing conditions and preserve dimensional consistency, favoring fabrication of a 114‐

Eco‐ductile design of RC columns: Resolving the conflict between embodied carbon and curvature ductility

Structural Concrete, EarlyView.
Abstract Reducing embodied carbon emissions in structural design is of critical importance in combating global climate change. However, the increased material usage and heavy confinement reinforcement required to meet high ductility demands in reinforced concrete columns directly conflict with environmental sustainability goals.

Many-Objective Grasshopper Optimization Algorithm (MaOGOA): A New Many-Objective Optimization Technique for Solving Engineering Design Problems

International Journal of Computational Intelligence Systems
In metaheuristic multi-objective optimization, the term effectiveness is used to describe the performance of a metaheuristic algorithm in achieving two main goals—converging its solutions towards the Pareto front and ensuring these solutions are well ...

Impacts of Change‐Type and State‐Type System Qualities on Complex System Architectures

Systems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT System qualities, such as scalability, expandability, and reconfigurability, are key requirements of complex systems. Requirements associated with system qualities are important factors in design trade space analyses, but systems engineering design methodologies make only limited use of these qualities, hindering a holistic understanding of ...
