Status of BetaCage: an Ultra-sensitive Screener for Surface Contamination [PDF]
BetaCage, a gaseous neon time-projection chamber, has been proposed as a viable screener for emitters of low-energy alphas and electrons to which commercial radioactivity counting techniques are insensitive.

The impact of nanotechnology on textile coloration—A mini‐review
Abstract Coloration is a key feature in the textile industry that adds value to the final apparels. This coloration of textile products is done by conventional methods which involve huge amounts of water pollution and wastages of textile colourants. Several approaches have been taken to eliminate these issues by advanced dyeing methods, however, due to

Editorial Comment: Advances in UHMWPE Biomaterials [PDF]
It is a curious time to be involved in ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) research. On the one hand, as clinical history of first-generation highly crosslinked polyethylenes (HXLPE) now is into its second decade, there is little doubt that patients undergoing THA have benefitted from this no-longer-new technology.

Relative motion at the bone-prosthesis interface [PDF]
Bone ingrowth in porous surfaces of human joint implants is a desired condition for long-term fixation in patients who are physically active (such as in sport or work). It is generally recognized that little actual bone ingrowth occurs. The best clinical

ABSTRACT Elite performance in Olympic winter sports depends on the interplay among the athlete, equipment, and the snow or ice. This naturally evolves with temperature, humidity, wind, preparation, and contact between the equipment and its surface. Together, these factors continuously rebalance the forces of gravity, aerodynamic drag, and friction ...
