Abstract Feline infectious peritonitis (FIP) is caused by a mutant biotype of the feline enteric coronavirus. The resulting FIP virus (FIPV) commonly causes central nervous system (CNS) and ocular pathology in cases of n...

Background and Objectives: In recent decades, inadequate attention by designers to the thermal performance of commercial building façades has resulted in significant thermal inefficiencies in such complexes. This study ...

Bacterial cellulose pellicles were produced by Gluconacetobacter xylinus using non conventional low-cost carbon sources, such as glycerol remaining from biodiesel production and grape bagasse, a residue of wine productio...

Startle is a fast response elicited by sudden acoustic, tactile or visual stimuli in a variety of animal species and in humans. The magnitude of startle response can be modulated by external and internal variables and ca...

Abstract A precise detection of the fault feature parameter of motor current is a new research hotspot in the broken rotor bar (BRB) fault diagnosis of induction motors. Discrete Fourier transform (DFT) is the most popul...

The mixture of acrylic resin and chitosan as denture material to inhibit Candida albicans. The inhibition of Candida albicans in denture resin has an important role to prevent the development of denture stomatitis. Chito...

The oxidation of diesel soot using K/CeO2 catalysts is studied in this paper. The reaction system involved in the catalytic oxidation of soot is quite complex; therefore, the study of reaction mechanisms is particularly ...

Abstract We demonstrate coherent orbital angular momentum (OAM) generation from chaotic phase screens with discrete integer-valued azimuthal bias. Through Fourier analysis, we prove that coherent OAM amplitude is nonzero...

Nanostructures composed of dielectric, metallic or metalo-dielectric structures are receiving significant attention due to their unique capabilities to manipulate light for a wide range of functions such as spectral colo...

The values of the partition function, and more generally the Fourier coefficients of many modular forms, are known to satisfy certain congruences. Results given by Ahlgren and Ono for the partition function and by Trenee...

Nonlinear response conception in rotating machinery, particularly in systems with squeeze film dampers (SFDs), pose significant challenges for established time-domain numerical methods due to bifurcations and critical po...

The catalytic conversion of palm oil was carried out over four zeolite catalysts—Y, ZSM-5, Y-ZSM-5 hybrid, and Y/ZSM-5 composite—to produce jet biofuel with high amount of alkanes and low amount of aromatic hydrocarb...

We present a systematic investigation of the optical response to circularly polarized illumination in twisted stacked plasmonic nanostructures. The system consists in two identical, parallel gold triskelia, centrally ali...

Metasurfaces are engineered thin surfaces comprising two-dimensional (2D) arrays of sub-wavelength-spaced and sub-wavelength-sized resonators. Metasurfaces can locally manipulate the amplitude, phase, and polarization of...

Access to surface plasmon polaritons (SPPs) with directional control excited by electrical means is important for applications in (on-chip) nano-optoelectronic devices and to circumvent limitations inherent to approaches...

Generating 2D diffraction orders with uniform or tailored intensity distribution is highly desired for various applications including depth perception, parallel laser fabrication and optical tweezer. However, previous st...

Over 70% of pharmaceutical compounds face the challenge of poor water solubility, which impacts on their bioavailability. This study focuses on the use of Santa Barbara Amorphous-15 (SBA-15) mesoporous silica material as...

The radiation-chemical decomposition of n-hexane in the nano-ZrO2 +n-hexane system under the action of gamma radiation at room temperature is studied by the method of Fourier-IR spectroscopy. The molecular and dissociati...

An existing hybrid MPI-OpenMP scheme is augmented with a CUDA-based fine grain parallelization approach for multidimensional distributed Fourier transforms, in a well-characterized pseudospectral fluid turbulence code. B...

We develop a generalized non-Hermitian Hamiltonian formalism for guided resonances in photonic crystal slabs, derived directly from Maxwell’s equations through a systematic guided-mode expansion. By expanding the elect...

Scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscopy (s-SNOM) and Fourier transform infrared nanospectroscopy (nano-FTIR) are emerging tools for physical and chemical nanocharacterization of organic and inorganic compo...

A parabolic potential that confines charge carriers along the growth direction of quantum wells semiconductor systems is characterized by a single resonance frequency, associated to intersubband transitions. Motivated by...

Water repellency related to organic matter (OM) of coatings along the earthworm burrows (EB) walls can facilitate preferential flow due to limiting the water exchange with the soil matrix. The objectives of this work wer...

Recycling of construction waste is essential for sustainable cement-based materials, yet the variable composition of recycled autoclaved aerated concrete (AAC) powder pose significant challenges when used in grouting app...
