Integrated structured light architectures [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 AbstractThe structural versatility of light underpins an outstanding collection of optical phenomena where both geometrical and topological states of light can dictate how matter will respond or display. Light possesses multiple degrees of freedom such as amplitude, and linear, spin angular, and orbital angular momenta, but the ability to adaptively ...

Peptidoglycan structure and architecture [PDF]
FEMS Microbiology Reviews, 2008 The peptidoglycan (murein) sacculus is a unique and essential structural element in the cell wall of most bacteria. Made of glycan strands cross-linked by short peptides, the sacculus forms a closed, bag-shaped structure surrounding the cytoplasmic membrane.

The influence of SAPs on chloride ingress in cracked concrete [PDF]
MATEC Web of Conferences, 2019 Super Absorbent Polymers (SAPs) have proven to be effective as a self-healing agent for regaining the liquid tightness of cracked concrete. This is due to their large swelling capacity which allows them to (partially) block cracks which are in contact ...

Structures and Architecture [PDF]
From Wood to Tree explores designing with wood’s natural degradation processes. This case-study proposes a sustainable approach for reintegrating processed preprocessed lumber into forest ecosystems, highlighting the importance of deadwood in supporting nutrient cycling, fostering fungal growth, enhancing soil health and providing habitats for saplings,
