Gels for CO2 geo‐storage and conformance control: A systemic review of behavior and performance
This review provides a systemic evaluation of potential sealants used in CO2 subsurface storage practices. Critical analyses of how external factors like CO2, pH, brine salinity and hardness, rock mineralogy, pressure, temperature, and injectivity could affect the performance of different sealants are provided. Abstract Carbon capture and storage (CCS)

Women's experiences of participating in a randomised trial comparing alternative policies for timing of cord clamping at very preterm birth: a questionnaire study [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The Cord Pilot Trial compared two alternative policies for cord-clamping at very preterm birth at eight UK tertiary maternity units: clamping after at least 2 min and immediate neonatal care with cord intact, or clamping within 20 s and ...

Over the last few years, a rich amount of research has been conducted on remote vital sign monitoring of the human body. Remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) is a camera-based, unobtrusive technology that allows continuous monitoring of changes in vital ...

Cancellation for $(G,n)$-complexes and the Swan finiteness obstruction
In previous work, we related homotopy types of $(G,n)$-complexes when $G$ has periodic cohomology to projective $\mathbb{Z} G$ modules representing the Swan finiteness obstruction.

Removing the anonymity axiom in assessing pro-poor growth [PDF]
The recent focus on 'pro-poor growth' led also to an intense debate on how exactly to define and to measure pro-poor growth. However, all suggested measures, irrespective whether they use the absolute or the relative definition of pro-poor growth have in

The angular momentum of two collided rarefied preplanetesimals and the formation of binaries
This paper studies the mean angular momentum associated with the collision of two celestial objects in the earliest stages of planet formation. Of primary concern is the scenario of two rarefied preplanetesimals (RPPs) in circular heliocentric orbits ...

Face Liveness Detection by rPPG Features and Contextual Patch-Based CNN [PDF]
Face anti-spoofing plays a vital role in security systems including face payment systems and face recognition systems. Previous studies showed that live faces and presentation attacks have significant differences in both remote photoplethysmography (rPPG) and texture information, we propose a generalized method exploiting both rPPG and texture features

Three‐ to 4‐year follow‐up of the reverse palatal pedicle graft for maxillary palatal recessions
Abstract Background This study evaluates the long‐term stability and clinical outcomes of the reverse palatal pedicle graft (RPPG) technique in treating maxillary molar palatal recessions over a 3 to 4‐year follow‐up period. Methods Three patients with palatal recession defects on maxillary molars were treated using the RPPG technique.
