Bioinspired inhibition of aggregation in metal-organic frameworks (MOFs)
Summary: Different from traditional procedures of using solid stabilizers like polymers and surfactants, here we demonstrate that water, as a very “soft” matter, could function as a “spacer” to prevent the aggregation of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs ...

Free versus purchased mosquito net ownership and use in Budondo sub-county, Uganda
Background While the distribution of mosquito bed nets is a widely adopted approach for malaria prevention, studies exploring how the usage of a net may be influenced by its source and other factors remain sparse. Methods A standardized questionnaire and

Metal‐organic framework (MOF) thickness control for carbon dioxide electroreduction to formate
Decreasing particle size (like thickness) is a common strategy to enhance the activities of catalysts. In this work, we have synthesized two coppers, which are bismuth‐based metal‐organic framework (CuBi‐MOF) catalysts with different thicknesses (134.8 ...

Nonlinear Stochastic Optimal Control Using Piezoelectric Stack Inertial Actuator
An optimal control strategy for the random vibration reduction of nonlinear structures using piezoelectric stack inertial actuator is proposed. First, the dynamic model of the nonlinear structure considering the dynamics of a piezoelectric stack inertial
