Agreement and repeatability of four different devices to measure non-invasive tear breakup time (NIBUT) [PDF]
Contact Lens and Anterior Eye, 2019 Since tear film stability can be affected by fluorescein, the Dry Eye Workshop (DEWSII) recommended non-invasive measurement of tear breakup time (NIBUT). The aim of this study was to investigate the agreement and repeatability of four different instruments in the measurement of NIBUT.72 participants (mean 24.2 ± 3.6 years) were recruited for this ...

A model of tear-film breakup with continuous mucin concentration and viscosity profiles
, 2019 We propose an alternative to the prevailing framework for modelling tear-film breakup, which posits a layered structure with a mucus layer next to the cornea and an aqueous layer on top.

Impact of MgO Additions on the Oxidation Resistance and Compression Behavior of Vanadium Alloys
Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.An increase in oxidation resistance at 600 °C is achieved for alloys containing more than 2.5 wt.% MgO. It has been established that, along with V2O5, MgO6V2, and Mg2O7V2 are formed, which are presumed to enhance oxidative stability. Furthermore, the possible transformation of Mg‐vanadates through reaction with CO2, which presumably occurs in this ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.HEA interlayers offer a versatile route for joining high‐performance structural materials. Their compositional and structural design regulates interfacial reactions, suppresses brittle IMCs, and improves metallurgical bonding. Sandwich interlayers further integrate defect healing with precipitation strengthening, enabling improved strength–ductility ...

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.This study proposes a potential device design for joint cartilage replacement. Silica‐polytetrahydrofuran (SiO2‐PolyTHF) hybrids with customizable mechanical properties were developed to mimic the characteristics of a natural meniscus. These were synthesized through a two‐pot sol–gel hybrid process.

Analysis of Accuracy of Tear Breakup Time (TBUT) and Non-invasive TBUT
The Korean Journal of Vision Science, 2017 Purpose: To compare the accuracy of invasive and non-invasive tear breakup time methods Methods: Tear breakup time (TBUT) was measured by using a fluorescein strip (Haag-Streit Strips, Haag-Streit, USA) and non-invasive tear break up time (NIBUT) was measured by using Keratograph 5M (K5M), Wavefront Analyzer (KR-1W), and Auto refraction keratometry (KR-

Advanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.Despite benefits to storage stability and handleability of aluminum scrap, octadecyl phosphonic acid (ODPA) SAMs reduce the tensile strength of wires produced using friction‐induced recycling. Etching and methyl diphosphonic acid (MDPA) coatings, however, have little effect.
