Thermochemical characterisation of straws and high yielding perennial grasses

Industrial Crops and Products, 2012
The research is concerned with thermochemical characterisation of straws and high yielding perennial grasses. Crops selected for this study include wheat straw (Triticum aestivum), rape straw (Brassica napus), reed canary grass (Phalaris arundinacea) and switch grass (Panicum virgatum).

Nuclear Pore Mechanotransduction in Oncology: A Structural Axis of Vulnerability for Targeted Intervention

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
Cancer‐associated NPC remodeling creates a high‐flux, low‐stringency nuclear state that supports malignant adaptation but increases mechanical fragility. Targeting the FG‐barrier or NPC scaffold may drive mechanostat failure, envelope rupture, DNA damage, and loss of nuclear integrity.

Cover crops and straw management on yield components of crambe

Bioscience Journal, 2015
The objective of this study was to evaluate the dry matter (DM) yield and nutrient accumulation in cover crops and the effect of these, as well as mechanical management of crop residues on growth and grain yield of crambe (Crambe abyssinica). The experiment was conducted in Santa Helena, Paraná, Brazil in Rhodic Hapludox (Red Latosol in the Brazilian ...

Closed‐Loop Radiative Cooling Mulch Upcycled From Agricultural Residues for Efficient Soil Heat–Water Stress Mitigation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Conventional passive radiative cooling films rely on costly feedstocks and energy‐intensive fabrication, with poor end‐of‐life compatibility in agriculture. To address this challenge, a sustainable radiative cooling mulch (SRCM) is developed from waste maize leaves via spontaneous hydrogen‐bond self‐assembly.

Multiscale Coupling From Mastication to Retronasal Aroma Perception: The PG‐DTCFN Model and Multiphysics Simulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Using grilled lamb skewers as a model system, this work builds a multiscale coupling framework from oral processing to retronasal aroma perception, reveals dual‐kinetic release patterns and Electroencephalogram‐characterized central encoding features, and proposes an interpretable physics‐guided deep learning model validated by multiphysics simulation,

Enhancing Enzymatic Hydrolysis of Rice Straw by Acid-Assisted Mechanocatalytic Depolymerization Pretreatment

Agronomy
The inherent complexity of cellulose, hemicellulose, and lignin contributes to the recalcitrance of lignocellulosic biomass, resulting in a low conversion efficiency and high cost of bioethanol conversion. Pretreatment methods that disrupt the plant cell

Evaluation of Rice Straw Yield, Fibre Composition and Collection Under Mediterranean Conditions

Acta Technologica Agriculturae, 2019
Rice straw remains almost unutilised in the majority of cases and is usually burned. Data on rice residue production under European conditions are extremely limited.

Steam Explosion Conditions Highly Influence the Biogas Yield of Rice Straw [PDF]

Molecules, 2019
Straws are agricultural residues that can be used to produce biomethane by anaerobic digestion. The methane yield of rice straw is lower than other straws. Steam explosion was investigated as a pretreatment to increase methane production. Pretreatment conditions with varying reaction times (12–30 min) and maximum temperatures (162–240 °C) were applied.

A Bio‐Functional Mimetic Robot for Versatile Tasks From Cross‐Scale Manipulation to Limb‐Tool Integration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A functionally biomimetic design methodology is presented, enabling a single robot to perform eight distinct functions and manipulate objects across a size range exceeding 2300‐fold. The robot exceeds basic human hand functions and demonstrates remote operation, multi‐object manipulation, humanoid‐robot hand interaction, and narrow‐space inspection ...
