Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Gas‐phase complexation of chiral methyloxirane by achiral phenol results in induced chiroptical response of phenol. Two pseudo enantiomer complexes are observed, corresponding to hydrogen bonding from phenol to either of the lone electron pair of the methyloxirane oxygen, denoted as Pro R and Pro S, with opposite chiral deformation of phenol and ...

Design of stick-framed wood roofs under tornado wind loads
Frontiers in Built Environment, 2022 Light-frame wood construction comprises nearly 90% of the housing industry in Canada and the United States. The roofs of these houses can be constructed either entirely on site or using prefabricated trusses.

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Bloodstream infections (BSI) are one of the leading causes of mortality and morbidity in both civilian and military populations. This paper summarizes recent progress in novel treatment strategies to manage BSI arising from both bacterial and fungal pathogens using molecules, particles, and materials to elicit host‐directed immunity.

Wind Speed Estimates for Garage Door Failures in Tornadoes
Frontiers in Built Environment, 2019 Severe wind events, such as tornadoes, pose a significant threat to lives and infrastructure in many locations around the world. Residential buildings are the structures most affected by these events, since they are widespread and often not designed to ...

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Hydrocarbon membranes are a greener alternative to PFSA in PEM fuel cells, but degrade rapidly from radical attack. We present a novel strategy using poly(vinylphosphonic acid) (PVPA) as a local radical scavenger. Incorporated as an interfacial barrier, PVPA enhances chemical stability and significantly extends membrane lifetime under accelerated ...
