ABSTRACT In recent years, natural‐fiber‐reinforced polymers have gained significant attention due to their sustainability and enhanced properties. This study used Canadian maple wood fiber as reinforcement in a polypropylene (PP). Fiber length and fiber content are known as key factors affecting the properties of the composites.

Distinct ligand binding sites in integrin alpha3beta1 regulate matrix adhesion and cell-cell contact. [PDF]
The integrin alpha3beta1 mediates cellular adhesion to the matrix ligand laminin-5. A second integrin ligand, the urokinase receptor (uPAR), associates with alpha3beta1 via a surface loop within the alpha3 beta-propeller (residues 242-246) but outside ...

ABSTRACT Research on business models for sustainability (BMfS) has primarily focused on the conceptual aspects and sustainability potential of BMfS rather than their actual impact. There is a need to understand whether BMfS have less environmental impact on society than conventional business models and in what context and conditions they can reduce ...

Magnetohydrodynamic Simulations of A Rotating Massive Star Collapsing to A Black Hole
We perform two-dimensional, axisymmetric, magnetohydrodynamic simulations of the collapse of a rotating star of 40 Msun and in the light of the collapsar model of gamma-ray burst. Considering two distributions of angular momentum, up to \sim 10^{17} cm^2/

The transformation of CO2 into chemical building blocks is essential for a net‐zero energy future. Plasma‐chemical processing offers promising potential to achieve this. Here, we explore a temperature‐dependent plasma‐chemical reaction mechanism, revealing a shift from electron‐driven to thermal‐driven CO2 conversion regimes.

Analyzing quantum jumps of one and two atoms strongly coupled to an optical cavity
We induce quantum jumps between the hyperfine ground states of one and two Cesium atoms, strongly coupled to the mode of a high-finesse optical resonator, and analyze the resulting random telegraph signals.
