Self-assembly and crystallization of double crystalline aliphatic thermoplastic biopolyurethane and its nucleation with cellulose nanocrystals
(Elsevier, 2022-01-13)
[EN] An aliphatic segmented thermoplastic biopolyurethane (STPU), based on aliphatic hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) and 1,3 propanediol (1,3PD) as urethane rich phase and a poly(sebacate) as a macrodiol phase, with ~50 ...
Techno-economic and environmental analyses of a solar-assisted Stirling engine cogeneration system for different dwelling types in the United Kingdom
(Elsevier, 2024-02-06)
In this study, a hybrid cogeneration system that combines photovoltaic-thermal (PV-T) collectors with a Stirling engine, and a battery-pack-based energy option is proposed for residential applications. The system’s purpose ...
Zwitterionic stabilized water-borne polymer colloids for antifouling coatings
(Elsevier, 2024-03)
This study presents antifouling waterborne (meth)acrylic coatings prepared through seeded semi-continuous emulsion polymerization, using trace amounts of a zwitterionic monomer 2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl dimethyl-(3-sulfop ...
Optimal design and operation of thermal energy storage systems in micro-cogeneration plants
(Elsevier, 2020-03-12)
The implementation of micro-cogeneration plants in residential buildings requires a technical and economic viability study. This analysis depends greatly on the regulatory framework controlling this kind of installations, ...
The ABC of Generalized Coordination Numbers and Their Use as a Descriptor in Electrocatalysis
(Wiley, 2023-07)
The quest for enhanced electrocatalysts can be boosted by descriptor-based analyses. Because adsorption energies are the most common descriptors, electrocatalyst design is largely based on brute-force routines that comb ...
Everyday language input and production in 1001 children from 6 continents
(PNAS, 2023)
Language is a universal human ability, acquired readily by young children, who otherwise struggle with many basics of survival. And yet, language ability is variable across individuals. Naturalistic and experimental ...
Investigating the Extent to which Distributional Semantic Models Capture a Broad Range of Semantic Relations
(WILEY, 2023)
Distributional semantic models (DSMs) are a primary method for distilling semantic information from corpora. However, a key question remains: What types of semantic relations among words do DSMs detect? Prior work typically ...
Integrative genomic analyses reveal mechanisms of glucocorticoid resistance in acute lymphoblastic leukemia
(Springer Nature, 2020-03)
Identification of genomic and epigenomic determinants of drug resistance provides important insights for improving cancer treatment. Using agnostic genome-wide interrogation of mRNA and miRNA expression, DNA methylation, ...
Automated procedure to detect subtle motor alterations in the balance beam test in a mouse model of early Parkinson’s disease
(Nature, 2024)
Parkinson’s disease (PD) is the most common motor neurodegenerative disorder, characterised by aggregated α-synuclein (α-syn) constituting Lewy bodies. We aimed to investigate temporal changes in motor impairments in a PD ...
Multicoverage Study of Femtosecond Laser-Induced Desorption of CO from Pd(111)
(ACS, 2024-02)
We study the strong coverage dependence of the femtosecond laser-induced desorption of CO from Pd(111) using molecular dynamics simulations that consistently include the effect of the laser-induced hot electrons on both ...
