Recent Trends in Conjugated Polymer‐Based Thermoelectrics From Materials to Device

EcoMat, Volume 7, Issue 10, October 2025.
Conjugated polymers (CPs) have shown dramatic advances in their thermoelectric (TE) power factor over the past decades, enabling biocompatible, solution‐processable, lightweight, and deformable (flexible/stretchable) TE generators. Material engineering principles have played an essential role in the remarkable improvements in power factor, including ...

A high prevalence of beak and feather disease virus in non-psittacine Australian birds [PDF]

, 2017
PURPOSE: Beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) is a circovirus and the cause of psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD). This disease is characterized by feather and beak deformities and is a recognized threat to endangered Psittaciformes (parrots and

A decision-support framework for early-stage economic evaluation of Performance-Based Fire Design in high-rise steel modular buildings

Journal of Asian Architecture and Building Engineering
As steel modular construction expands into high-rise developments, prescriptive fire protection standards impose a critical economic barrier. This study proposes a decision-support framework for early-stage economic evaluation of Performance-Based Fire ...

Development of novel diagnostic and vaccine options for beak and feather disease virus (BFDV) [PDF]

, 2009
Beak and Feather Disease Virus (BFDV) is a circovirus which causes ill-thrift, feather loss and immunosuppression leading to secondary infections and eventually death in psittacine birds.

Hygiene and biosecurity protocols reduce infection prevalence but do not improve fledging success in an endangered parrot. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2019
Emerging Infectious Diseases (EIDs) are recognised as global extinction drivers of threatened species. Unfortunately, biodiversity managers have few tested solutions to manage them when often the desperate need for solutions necessitates a response. Here

Detection and analysis of new psittacine beak and feather disease virus (PBFDv) nucleotide sequences [PDF]

, 2017
Psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD) affects a large number of Psittaciformes species. In this study, five White Cockatoo parrots (Cacatua alba) with clinical signs of PBFD were examined.

Towards a Performance-Based Fire Design Framework for Composite Steel Deck Construction in Canada

, 2017
In Canada, buildings are designed for fire safety in a predominately prescriptive manner, especially the structural design of those buildings for the fire limit state.

Production and Characterization of Monoclonal Antibodies to Psittacine Beak and Feather Disease Virus

, 1992
Monoclonal antibodies specific for the virus that causes psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD) were produced by fusing spleen cells from mice immunized with purified concentrated PBFD virus with mouse myeloma cell line Sp2/0.

Frequency domain improved practical variable step-size for adaptive feedback cancellation using pre-filters

, 2018
© 2018 IEEE. In adaptive feedback cancellation (AFC) methods, the step-size plays an important role in controlling the convergence speed of an adaptive filter in the feedback canceller path. The selection of this step-size provides a compromise between a

endangered species

, 2015
Background: Since it was first described in the early 1980s, psittacine beak and feather disease (PBFD) has become recognised as the dominant viral pathogen of psittacine birds in Australia.
