Effect of Plant Fiber on Early Properties of Geopolymer

Molecules, 2023
Geopolymer (GP) is environmentally friendly, has good mechanical properties and long-term workability, and has broad application prospects. However, due to the poor tensile strength and toughness of GPs, they are sensitive to microcracks, which limits ...

Family Dispute Resolution in Australia: The Under‐Servicing of Indigenous, Migrant and Refugee Families Experiencing Family Violence

Australian Journal of Social Issues, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Improving access to legal services for Indigenous, migrant and refugee women is critical to addressing family violence. In this context, Family Dispute Resolution (FDR) has long been discussed as a solution for separating families. This paper presents key findings of a research evaluation of an Australian Government $8.37 million pilot project

Research on the Workability of 3D Printed Fiber-Reinforced Concrete Materials

Fibers
This paper investigates the fundamental workability of 3D printed concrete materials incorporating different fiber types. Fluidity, extrudability, and buildability were proposed as key indicators for assessing printability, evaluated through ...

Dosing PPARγ Activation With Light Using Fast Relaxing Photoswitches

Angewandte Chemie International Edition, EarlyView.
To achieve spatiotemporal control over PPARγ activity, we designed the fast‐relaxing photoswitchable agonist 6 that selectively activates PPARγ in its light‐induced Z‐state and relaxes within seconds (t1/2 47 s) to the inactive E‐state. This unique profile allowed light‐dosed receptor activation in in vitro settings, enabling biological studies on ...

Synergistic Advanced Oxidation and Physicochemical Treatment Strategies for Antibiotic Removal and Resistance Mitigation in Water

Asia-Pacific Journal of Chemical Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The presence of antibiotics in water not only causes environmental pollution but also increases the growth of antibiotic‐resistant bacterial genes, which pose serious threats to human beings and other water residents. Large numbers of people are reportedly affected by the resistant bacterial genes, as many broad‐spectrum antibiotics are not ...

Spatial-temporal Analysis for Automated Concrete Workability Estimation

, 2022
Concrete workability measure is mostly determined based on subjective assessment of a certified assessor with visual inspections. The potential human error in measuring the workability and the resulting unnecessary adjustments for the workability is a ...

Exceptional preservation informs the paleobiology of tapinocephalid dinocephalians

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The tapinocephalid dinocephalian Moschops is one of the most iconic taxa of the middle Permian, yet its paleobiology remains one of the least well‐known. Here, we address some aspects of paleoneurology and paleobiology of Moschops using CT scanning of four well preserved skulls from the upper Abrahamskraal Formation of South Africa. Two of the
