Raman scattering investigations based on density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed to explore the vibrational modes of wurtzite structured CdS nanoparticles (NPs). The calculations were performed to obt...

Adults with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD) may face challenges in employment settings due to difficulties in social functioning. Bespoke employment interventions aim to make it easier for adults with ASD to secure and m...

In this paper, the analysis of charge injection from metal to a contacted graphene nanoribbon (GNR) is developed by means of a scattering matrix approach. The charge transport, described by the Schrödinger equation in t...

In this chapter, we will focus on a specific X‐raybased technique among those employed in surface science and which is especially suitable for the study of self‐assembled nanocrystals: Grazing Incidence Small Angle X...

Parenting programmes that are delivered in group settings have the potential to help parents develop parenting skills that improve the behaviour of their young children. This review provides evidence that group‐based p...

This systematic review aimed to assess the efficacy of cognitive‐behavioural approaches (CBT) in addressing the immediate and longer‐term sequelae of sexual abuse on children and young people up to 18 years of age. W...

MWCNTs produced by using Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD) technique were functionalized with nitric and sulfuric acid to ensure a good dispersion in an aqueous solution. The FTIR analysis further confirmed the presence of...

This Campbell systematic review assesses the effectiveness of drug courts in reducing criminal or drug‐use behaviour recidivism. The review summarises findings from 154 studies, all of which report evidence from adult ...

We used temperature‐sensitive poly(N‐ isopropylacrylamide) hydrogels as drug delivery systems, so changes in body temperature induced by pathogens could act like external stimuli to activate controlled release of the...

The electrical properties of electrodeposited zinc‐copper‐telluride (ZnCuTe) nanowires embedded in polycarbonate track‐etch membrane (Whatman) having pore‐diameters of 200, 100 and 50nm have been studied and repo...

Modification of the electrical transport of a random network of silicon nanowires assembled on n‐ silicon support, after silicon nanowires functionalization by chlorination/alkylation procedure , is here described and ...

The synthesis of silver nanoparticles of varying size has been achieved using different molar concentrations of NaOH while the effect of changing the temperature has been studied. AgNO3, gelatine, glucose and NaOH are us...

This Cochrane‐Campbell systematic review examines the effects of group‐based parenting programmes on parents' psychosocial health. The review summarise findings from 48 studies conducted in various countries and sett...

This Campbell systematic review assesses the effectiveness of home‐based child development interventions in improving children's developmental outcomes. The review summarises findings from seven studies. Two of the stu...

This Campbell systematic review examines the effects of focusing police crime prevention efforts on crime ‘hot spots’, and whether focused police actions at specific locations result in crime displacement (i.e. crime...

This Campbell systematic review examines the effect of interventions on school attendance to inform policy, practice and research. The review summarise findings from 28 studies conducted in the US, Canada, UK and Austral...

This Campbell systematic review examines the empirical research on the effectiveness of female genital mutilation/cutting (‘FGM/C’) interventions to reduce the occurrence of FGM/C practices in the 28 African countrie...

We conducted a systematic review of the published and unpublished literatures on the interview and interrogation of suspects. Our focus was to examine the impact of accusatorial versus information gathering approaches on...

The ability of prokaryotic microorganisms to reduce the inorganic metals has opened up an exciting eco‐friendly approach towards the development of natural ‘nano‐factories’. However, a number of issues have to be...

Large scale synthesis of carbon nanofibres (CNFs) on a sodium chloride support has been achieved. CNFs have been synthesized using metal oxalate (Ni, Co and Fe) as catalyst precursors at 680 C by chemical vapour depos...

Mind‐body interventions to manage stress‐related health problems are of widespread interest. One of the best known methods is mindfulness‐based stress reduction (MBSR), and MBSR courses are now offered by health se...

In this paper, we report on multiphysics fullwave techniques in the frequency (energy)‐domain and the time‐domain, aimed at the investigation of the combined electromagnetic‐coherent transport problem in carbon bas...
