Intrusion and extrusion of water in hydrophobic nanopores [PDF]

, 2017
Heterogeneous systems composed of hydrophobic nanoporous materials and water are capable, depending on their characteristics, of efficiently dissipating (dampers) or storing ("molecular springs") energy.

3D (Bio) Printing Combined Fiber Fabrication Methods for Tissue Engineering Applications: Possibilities and Limitations

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Biofabrication aims at providing innovative technologies and tools for the fabrication of tissue‐like constructs for tissue engineering and regenerative medicine applications. By integrating multiple biofabrication technologies, such as 3D (bio) printing with fiber fabrication methods, it would be more realistic to reconstruct native tissue's ...

Mechanical behaviour of densely compacted expansive soils during wetting and drying cycles: an analytical model based on shakedown concept

European Journal of Environmental and Civil Engineering, 2019
To improve the modelling of mechanical behaviour on densely compacted expansive soils during wetting and drying cycles, this article presents a straightforward one-dimensional model to simulate the deformation change of densely compacted expansive soils ...

Rational Fine‐Tuning of MOF Pore Metrics: Enhanced SO2 Capture and Sensing with Optimal Multi‐Site Interactions

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A pore tuning strategy to amplify the multi‐site MOF‐SO2 interactions is proposed to achieve an enhanced trace SO2 capture and chemiresistive sensing in highly stable isostructural DMOFs by annelating benzene rings. This work provides a facile strategy to achieve tailor‐made stable MOF materials for specific multifunctional applications.

Porosity evolution of sandstone dissolution under wetting and drying cycles

Yantu gongcheng xuebao, 2018
The deterioration mechanism of rock under wetting and drying cycles is complex. Taking sandstone as the research object, based on the ion concentration in immersion solution, the dissolution of sandstone minerals is quantitatively analyzed, and the ...

Effect of moisture on leaf litter decomposition and its contribution to soil respiration in a temperate forest [PDF]

, 2007
The degree to which increased soil respiration rates following wetting is caused by plant (autotrophic) versus microbial (heterotrophic) processes, is still largely uninvestigated. Incubation studies suggest microbial processes play a role but it remains

Laser‐Induced Graphene from Waste Almond Shells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Almond shells, an abundant agricultural by‐product, are repurposed to create a fully bioderived almond shell/chitosan composite (ASC) degradable in soil. ASC is converted into laser‐induced graphene (LIG) by laser scribing and proposed as a substrate for transient electronics.

The water factor in harvest-sprouting of hard red spring wheat [PDF]

Sprouting in unthreshed, ripe, hard red spring wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is induced by rain, but sprouting does not necessarily occur because the crop is wetted.
