One‐Step Fabrication of Highly Transparent Superhydrophobic Coatings Via Atmospheric Pressure Radio Frequency Plasma Deposition

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Atmospheric‐pressure RF plasma deposition enables the fabrication of transparent, superhydrophobic coatings with anti‐reflective functionality. Process optimization yields high optical transmittance, robust environmental stability, and self‐cleaning properties.

Direct Shear Test of Unsaturated Soil

open access: yesEarth Sciences Research Journal, 2017
The present study focuses on some tentative laboratory tests using a newly-constructed modified direct shear test apparatus. The single-stage and multistage direct shear tests were performed to determine the shear rate and test scheme of unsaturated ...

Thermal Band Heating for Intra-Row Weed Control [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Surface steaming of soil is a very energy-intensive process, and consequently, efforts have been made to develop a machine for narrow-band steaming of the soil under and around rows of cultivated plants prior to seeding.

The potential of biological soil disinfestation to manage Fusarium foot and root rot in Asparagus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In a field experiment on an abandoned asparagus field we studied the effect of Biological Soil Disinfestation (BSD) on survival of buried inoculum samples of three test pathogens (Fusarium redolens f.sp.

Influence of Carbon Nanoparticles on Electrically Induced Wear of Grease‐Lubricated Steels

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
When an electric current enters a pair of rubbing surfaces, enormous damage takes place. In this research, how such damage occurs in the presence of protective grease and the mitigation with added carbon nanoparticles, were investigated. It was discovered that those particles regulate transport and interfacial electrical stability of the grease ...

Improving fertiliser management: redefining the relationship between soil tests and crop responses for wheat in WA [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Most soils in Western Australia (WA) are highly weathered with very low levels of phosphorus. WA soils initially contained adequate indigenous soil potassium for cropping but removal of potassium over time in harvested grain has gradually resulted in the

The plastic limit of clays [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The plastic limit of soils was first described by Atterberg in 1911. The thread-rolling test was standardised at the US Public Roads Bureau in the 1920s and 1930s, and has subsequently become one of the standard tests of soil mechanics.

Nanozymes at the Bio‐Nano Interface: From Synthesis, Defect Engineering, Catalytic Behavior in Biological Microenvironments, and Biosafety Implications

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
Nanozymes (NZs) have emerged as versatile artificial enzymes with tunable catalytic properties driven by atomic coordination, defect engineering, and surface chemistry. This review presents a bio–nano interface framework linking synthesis strategies, structural design, and catalytic behavior within complex biological microenvironments.
