Evaluating Battery Degradation Models in Rolling-Horizon BESS Arbitrage Optimization

Battery Energy Storage Systems (BESS) can benefit from price volatility in electricity markets, but frequent cycling increases degradation and reduces long-term value. This study develops a rolling-horizon dispatch framework in which batter...

Deep neural network-based prediction of tsunami wave attenuation by mangrove forests

The goal of this research is to develop a model employing deep neural networks (DNNs) to predict the effectiveness of mangrove forests in attenuating the impact of tsunami waves. The dataset for the DNN model is obtained by simulating tsuna...

Museum exhibition-space psychology of sequential organization and cinematic spatial cues: an exploratory mixed-model association analysis.

Microwave assisted synthesis and characterisation of a zinc oxide/tobacco mosaic virus hybrid material. An active hybrid semiconductor in a field-effect transistor device

Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) has been employed as a robust functional template for the fabrication of a TMV/zinc oxide field effect transistor (FET). A microwave based approach, under mild conditions was employed to synthesize stable zinc oxi...

Transcutaneous permeation enhancer complex for polymer-based transdermal patches

Selecting a permeation enhancer complex (PEC) for inclusion in a matrix-type transdermal patch (TP) is a primary task in creating a new dosage form with percutaneous administration. Objective: to develop a biologically safe PEC capable of r...

ROS/Enzyme Dual-Responsive Drug Delivery System for Targeted Colorectal Cancer Therapy: Synergistic Chemotherapy, Anti-Inflammatory, and Gut Microbiota Modulation

Objectives: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a leading cause of cancer-related mortality, driven by chronic inflammation, gut microbiota dysbiosis, and complex tumor microenvironment interactions. Current therapies are limited by systemic toxicit...

Study of the corrosion properties of powder rolled Ti–6Al–4V alloy applied in the biomedical implants

Great efforts have been made in fabricating Ti–6Al–4V alloys that can be used in the biomedical implants industry. The increasing interest in using fabricated Ti–6Al–4V alloys in industrial applications is mainly due to the properties of al...

Enhanced echoes – Digitisation and new perspectives on film sound

To say that sound has long been a neglected subject in film studies has become something of a commonplace ‐ yet this is no longer true. Starting in the 1980s with a special edition of the journal Yale French Studies film scholars have incre...

Antibacterial effects of nano-imprinted moth-eye film in practical settings.

BACKGROUND:Recent studies report that surfaces displaying micrometer- or nanometer-sized undulating structures exhibit antibacterial effects. In previous work, we described the use of an advanced nanofabrication technique to generate an art...

New Compounds Derived from Nitrophenol Synthesis, Structural investigation and anticorrision Properties

A new azo compound [2-((4-hydroxy-3-(E)-(2-hydroxy-5-nitrophenyl)diazenyl)benzaldeyde and the azo schiff derivative [2-((4-hydroxy-3-((E)-(2-hydroxy-5-nitrophenyl)diazenyl)benzylidene)amino)-4-nitrophenol (Azo-S) has been synthesized. 13C-N...

Nanoparticle Deposition of Fluoropolymer CYTOP via Holographic Femtosecond Laser Processing and Its Biochip Application

The fundamental characteristics of nanoparticle (NP) deposition of the fluoropolymer CYTOP using a femtosecond (fs) laser were investigated. In previous studies, we have demonstrated the microfluidic fabrication of CYTOP, which enables clea...

PIP5K isoforms and phosphoinositide molecular species in EGF-stimulated PIP3 synthesis: A multi-method approach using enzyme genetic suppression and chemical inhibition in MCF10A cells.

Consumer ethnocentrism under the circumstances of the COVID-19 virus pandemic

Background: The new circumstances of life due to the proclamation of the COVID 19 virus pandemic have caused numerous changes both in general people's lives and in consumption. Purpose: The aim of this paper is to identify changes in the de...

Design and characterize of kirigami-inspired springs and the application in vertebrae exoskeleton for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis brace treatment

Adolescent idiopathic scoliosis is a common condition that affects children between the age of 10 and young adulthood. Rigid brace treatment is an effective treatment to control the progression of spinal deformity. However, it limits mobili...

Multi-Set Space-Time Shift-Keying With Reduced Detection Complexity

In this paper, we propose a novel multi-set space-time shift keying (MS-STSK) technique, where the source bits are conveyed over two components, namely, by activating one out of MQ dispersion matrices of STSK and M antenna combination of th...

Lemongrass (Cymbopogon Flexuosus Steud.) wats treated textile: A control measure against vector-borne diseases

Mosquito-borne diseases are one of the major threats to human health. The long-term use of synthetic repellents has made mosquitoes resistant to them leading to search for novel methods of mosquito control. In the present study, we have dev...
