ABSTRACT Objectives Conventional ablative and photothermal lasers are commonly used to treat superficial pigmentary lesions but often induce thermal injury and post‐inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), particularly in Asian skin. Picosecond 755‐nm alexandrite lasers with diffractive lens arrays (DLA) create laser‐induced optical breakdown (LIOB ...

Exploring biofiber properties and their influence on biocomposite tensile properties
The study measured the physical, flow and chemical properties of 10 biofibers. It characterized the tensile properties of derived biocomposites and linked them using regression models, showing robust predictive performance. Abstract Biofibers serve as effective reinforcements for neat polylactic acid (PLA) in biocomposites, offering an attractive ...

How ventures maintain stakeholder support amidst operational legitimacy threats
Abstract Research Summary We explore how ventures mitigate operational legitimacy threats—threats that originate within the venture and challenge claims relating to the venture's ability to deliver on its promised value proposition. Through an inductive study of four ventures working to deliver their promised products following successful crowdfunding ...
