Reduce blue water scarcity and increase nutritional and economic water productivity through changing the cropping pattern in a catchment
(Elsevier, 2020)
Water-stressed countries need to plan their food security and reduce the pressure on their limited water resources. Agriculture, the largest water-using sector, has a major role in addressing water scarcity and food security ...
Effect of environmental humidity on the ionic transport of poly(ethylene oxide) thin films by local dielectric spectroscopy
(RSC, 2020-03-03)
The effect of humidity on the ionic transport in the amorphous phase of poly(ethylene
oxide) thin films has been studied by via local dielectric spectroscopy. We explored a
controlled humidity range between 15 %RH and ...
Sensorimotor Mapping With MEG: An Update on the Current State of Clinical Research and Practice With Considerations for Clinical Practice Guidelines
(Journal of Clinical Neurophysiology, 2020)
In this article, we present the clinical indications and
advances in the use of magnetoencephalography to map the
primary sensorimotor (SM1) cortex in neurosurgical patients
noninvasively. We emphasize the advantages ...
A Systematic Review of Collective Tactical Behaviour in Futsal Using Positional Data
(Termedia, 2020-08-03)
Although many studies on collective tactical behaviour have been published in the last decade, no study has revised and summarized the findings provided for futsal. The main aim of this systematic review was to identify ...
Cellulose as an Inert Scaffold in Plasmon-Assisted Photoregeneration of Cofactor Molecules
(American Chemical Society, 2020-04-29)
Plasmonic nanoparticles exhibit excellent light-harvesting properties in the visible spectral range, which makes them a convenient material for the conversion of light into useful chemical fuel. However, the need for using ...
Residual alignment and its effect on weld strength in material-extrusion 3D-printing of polylactic acid
(Elsevier B.V, 2020-06-30)
Gaining a molecular understanding of material extrusion (MatEx) 3D printing is crucial to predicting and
controlling part properties. Here we report the direct observation of distinct birefringence localised to the ...
Significance of Simple Steatosis: An Update on the Clinical and Molecular Evidence
(MDPI, 2020-11-11)
Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is defined clinicopathologically by the accumulation of lipids in >5% of hepatocytes and the exclusion of secondary causes of fat accumulation. NAFLD encompasses a wide spectrum ...
On Confinement and Quarantine Concerns on an SEIAR Epidemic Model with Simulated Parameterizations for the COVID-19 Pandemic
(MDPI, 2020-10-07)
This paper firstly studies an SIR (susceptible-infectious-recovered) epidemic model without demography and with no disease mortality under both total and under partial quarantine of the susceptible subpopulation or of both ...
Interplay of Topological States on TI/TCI Interfaces
(MDPI, 2020-10-10)
Based on first-principles calculations, we study electronic structure of interfaces between a Z2 topological insulator (TI) SnBi2Te4 and a topological crystalline insulator (TCI) SnTe. We consider two interface models ...
