Microfluidics for effective concentration and sorting of waterborne protozoan pathogens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
We report on an inertial focussing based microfluidics technology for concentrating waterborne protozoa, achieving a 96% recovery rate of Cryptosporidium parvum and 86% for Giardia lamblia at a throughput (mL/min) capable of replacing centrifugation. The

Taguchi Method Applied to Environmental Engineering [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Over the last decades, environmental concerns have become more critical and frequent. Thisis, mainly, due to population growth and the increase of industrial activities in which anthro‐pogenic actions have reached catastrophic proportions resulting in changes of soil, air, andwater quality [1].Environmental pollution by industrial effluent is being ...

Making with the Trouble: Un/Enfolding Posthuman Participants with Young People in Creative Post‐Qualitative Research

open access: yesInternational Journal of Art &Design Education, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores how ‘what matters’ can surface in multisensory arts‐informed projects as ways for young people to survive and stay with gender and sexuality troubles that are always more than theirs. Situated in an ex‐mining post‐industrial locale, we make an agential cut in a longitudinal research and engagement project called Unboxing ...

Toward Hybrid Studio‐Based Learning Environments: A Sociomaterial Exploration of Design Education

open access: yesInternational Journal of Art &Design Education, EarlyView.
Abstract This article explores how hybrid learning (HL) can be successfully integrated into the practice‐based visual communication design (VCD) curriculum at Stellenbosch University (SU), South Africa, to enhance future teaching, learning, and curriculum renewal. This was approached from a sociomaterial perspective.
