Advanced Science, EarlyView.An edible and recyclable composite film composed of gelatin and activated charcoal is presented for multifunctional health and environmental monitoring. The edible films exhibit tuneable mechanical and electrical properties, along with multimodal sensing capabilities for strain, humidity, and temperature. The composite film is degradable and recyclable,

Probing Non-Integer Dimensions [PDF]
, 2006 We show that two-dimensional convection-diffusion problems with a radial sink or source at the origin may be recast as a pure diffusion problem in a fictitious space in which the spatial dimension is continuously-tunable with the Peclet number.

Helix Alignment, Chevrons, and Edge Dislocations in Twist‐Bend Ferroelectric Nematics
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The recently discovered twist‐bend ferroelectric nematic (NTBF) is the new member of the multiferroic family, representing a fluid with an oblique helicoidal (heliconical) periodic structure of spontaneous electric polarization. The work presents a thorough exploration of the material properties of this phase, how the periodic modulation of ...

Caste, 2020 This study is an ethnographic enquiry into the pre-school Supplementary Nutrition Programme (SNP), in India’s western Gujarat state. The broad objective was aimed at understanding the institutional barriers and sociological process that had led to the exclusion of families and children under the age of six from the SNP.

Unbroken supersymmetry in the Aharonov-Casher effect
, 1999 We consider the problem of the bound states of a spin 1/2 chargless particle in a given Aharonov-Casher configuration. To this end we recast the description of the system in a supersymmetric form.

Advanced Science, EarlyView.Poly[2‐(methacryloyloxy)ethyl]dimethyl‐(3‐sulfopropyl)ammonium hydroxide‐based organohydrogels are formed via nonsolvent‐induced gelation, featuring tunable viscoelasticity. Functional fillers (MXene nanosheets, magnetic NdFeB microparticles) enable electrical, magnetic, and mechanical responsiveness for applications in mechano‐tunable electromagnetic ...

Monte Carlo Neutrino Oscillations
, 2005 We demonstrate that the effects of matter upon neutrino propagation may be recast as the scattering of the initial neutrino wavefunction. Exchanging the differential, Schrodinger equation for an integral equation for the scattering matrix S permits a ...

Tough and Temperature‐Resistant Material Based on Bombyx mori Silk Fibroin
Advanced Science, EarlyView.We propose a biomimetic “Hydration‐Crystallization Locking” (HCL) strategy inspired by Bombyx mori spinning to enhance silk fibroin (SF) performance in extreme temperatures. A flexible fibroin membrane (FFM) shows high strength, toughness, and shape retention under −196°C and 70°C.

Differential effects of focused and unfocused recasts on EFL learners’ oral accuracy
Colombian Applied Linguistics Journal, 2015 One of the limitations of the meaning-focused instruction in an EFL context is that a communicative approach isn’t sufficient enough to ensure higher levels of oral accuracy.
