Computational fluid dynamics simulations of solar-assisted, spacer-filled direct contact membrane distillation: Seeking performance improvement [PDF]
Significant downstream performance reduction and concentration polarisation reduce direct contact membrane distillation (DCMD) efficiency. These challenges are not well researched since they are difficult to implement experimentally and numerically ...

Effect of ligand and shell densities on surface structure of core-shell nanoparticles self-assembled from function-spacer-lipid constructs [PDF]
Biomolecular corona is the major obstacle in clinical translation of nanomedicines. To overcome this problem, comprehensive studies of the processes leading to the formation of a biomolecular corona are required. Since such dynamical studies require high

Evaluation of asthma control, parents’ quality of life and preference between AeroChamber Plus and AeroChamber Plus Flow-Vu spacers in young children with asthma [PDF]
Objective: The AeroChamber Plus (AC) valved holding chamber has been enhanced to include the Flow-Vu (FV) inspiratory flow indicator that provides visual inhalation feedback during use. We have investigated if FV alters asthma control and whether parents

GraspLDM: Generative 6-DoF Grasp Synthesis Using Latent Diffusion Models
Vision-based grasping of unknown objects in unstructured environments is a key challenge for autonomous robotic manipulation. A practical grasp synthesis system is required to generate a diverse set of 6-DoF grasps from which a task-relevant grasp can be

Next generation sequencing analysis reveals a relationship between rDNA unit diversity and locus number in
Background Tandemly arranged nuclear ribosomal DNA (rDNA), encoding 18S, 5.8S and 26S ribosomal RNA (rRNA), exhibit concerted evolution, a pattern thought to result from the homogenisation of rDNA arrays. However rDNA homogeneity at the single nucleotide

Impact of Spacer Cation on the Properties of Two-Dimensional Monolayer Hybrid Halide Perovskites [PDF]
Poor long-term stability of hybrid halide perovskites has severely inhibited their large-scale commercial applications. Recently emerging low-dimensional hybrid halide perovskites have much more enhanced long-term stability, but their wide bandgap and ...
