A comparison of polymer film and glass collectors for concentrating solar power [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
This paper describes work to compare the optical properties and surface texture of glass and polymer film collectors. We also present the results of experiments designed to simulate collector cleaning processes (both contact and non-contact), and the ...

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the

Macular function in tilted disc syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Tilted disc syndrome can cause visual field defects due to an optic disc anomaly. Recent electrophysiological findings demonstrate reduced central outer retinal function with ophthalmoscopically normal maculae.

Engineering peptides into antibodies—opportunities and strategies for therapeutic innovation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Peptides and antibodies occupy complementary therapeutic niches. Peptides recognize difficult targets in a compact format, while antibodies add specificity, long half‐life, and effector functions. This review examines strategies that merge both modalities—peptide grafting into loops, terminal and Fc fusions, and bioconjugation—highlighting how ...

Comprehensive Evaluation of Irradiance Transposition Models at High Temporal Resolution in Hot Desert Conditions

open access: yesIEEE Access
The tilted irradiance, or Plane-Of-Array (POA) irradiance, refers to the solar radiation that strikes a tilted surface, such as a photovoltaic (PV) panel. Accurate estimation of POA is essential for designing efficient solar systems and predicting energy

Selective growth of tilted ZnO nanoneedles and nanowires by PLD on patterned sapphire substrates

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2016
We report the possibility to control the tilting of nanoneedles and nanowires by using structured sapphire substrates. The advantage of the reported strategy is to obtain well oriented growth along a single direction tilted with respect to the surface ...

Growth and welfare of submerged Atlantic salmon under continuous lighting

open access: yesAquaculture Environment Interactions, 2018
Although surface-based cages dominate the marine finfish aquaculture industry, production issues that arise at the surface such as poor environmental conditions and the presence of parasites has spurred interest in submerging cages.

A new method to characterize degradation of first surface aluminium reflectors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
This paper reports the development of a new optical instrument capable of characterizing the aging process of enhanced first surface aluminum reflectors for concentrating solar power (CSP) application. Samples were exposed outdoors at different sites and

Liver organoids: modelling complexity in homeostasis and disease

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Studying liver in vitro has been challenging because simple 2D cell cultures fail to capture liver's cellular and architectural complexity. To bridge this gap, scientists increasingly use organoids, 3D liver models which better mimic liver composition and function. This review examines recent advances in liver organoid complexity and realism, discusses

Characterizing Subsurface Rectangular Tilted Heat Sources Using Inductive Thermography

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2020
In this study, we characterize the lateral dimension, depth, and inclination of buried tilted rectangular heat sources from time domain temperature data measured at the surface.
