This work shows that predicting, using a model, the topology and even the existence range of the critical behavior in an asymmetrical ternary system, is practically impossible without a systematic strategy to build throu...

Objectives: This study aimed to investigate erosive tooth wear (ETW) in different teeth and tooth surfaces among a group of Finnish adults, and to investigate the association between different risk factors and the manife...

Metasurfaces are a topic of significant research and are used in various applications due to their unique ability to manipulate electromagnetic waves in microwave and optical frequencies. These artificial sheet materials...

Purpose This study aimed to assess the acute effects of hippotherapy performed on different seating surfaces on sitting balance and walking speed in children with special needs. Materials and Methods Children aged 3–18...

Abstract Background The aim of this study was to evaluate the color matching and metameric behavior of two different composite resins applied to titanium surfaces anodized to yellow and pink colors. The study aimed to de...

Bioinspired superhydrophobic surfaces have attracted many industrial and academic interests in recent years. Inspired by unique superhydrophobicity and anisotropic friction properties of snake scale surfaces, this study ...

Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were carried out on hydroxylated and solvated (H&S) Fe substrates. Fe (110) and (111) extended surfaces as well as clusters of 32 and 59 atoms, and a nanoparticle of 80 atoms ...

In this study, we report the formation of laser-induced periodic surface nanometric concentric ring structures on silicon surfaces through single-spot irradiation with orthogonally polarized femtosecond laser double-puls...

Multispectral camouflage, especially for the infrared-microwave range, is an essential technology for the safety of facilities, vehicles, and humans. So far, it has been realized mainly by high infrared specular reflecti...

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...

The effect of lactocin AL705, bacteriocin produced by Latilactobacillus (Lat.) curvatus CRL1579 against Listeria biofilms on stainless steel (SS) and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) coupons at 10 ◦C was investigated. L....

Self-affine property of a modified multifractal Cantor geometry is exploited to design frequency selective surfaces (FSS) with multiband response. The main advantage of the proposed structure is to design multiband FSS w...

Regarded as a kind of smart surfaces, metasurfaces can arbitrarily tailor the amplitude, phase, and polarization of light. Metasurfaces usually consist of subwavelength nanoantenna or nanoresonator arrays, which are deli...

Topological optics is an emerging research area in which various topological and geometrical ideas are being proposed to design and manipulate the behaviors of photons. Here, the photonic spin Hall effect on the surfaces...

Recently there is an increasing interest in complex optical fields with spatially inhomogeneous state of polarizations and optical singularities. Novel effects and phenomena have been predicted and observed for...

The methodology and results of experimental studies on the heat transfer efficiency of new surfaces with mesh-wire finning under low-pressure axial fan airflow are presented. Their performance is compared with experiment...

In this research , microwave ray absorbing coating materials had been prepared which work within ( X - band ) frequency i.e 3 cm wavelength . The coating materials were prepared from a mixture of pigmented materials such...

Tearing of brittle thin elastic sheets, possibly adhered to a substrate, involves a rich interplay between nonlinear elasticity, geometry, adhesion, and fracture mechanics. In addition to its intrinsic and practical inte...

Abstract Frequency Selective Surfaces (FSS) are increasingly being used in telecommunications systems due to the numerous advantages presented by this sort of structure, among them low cost, ease of fabrication, and low ...

Abstract Multiple-input multiple-output non-orthogonal multiple access (MIMO-NOMA) systems assisted by reconfigurable intelligent surfaces (RIS) have become a viable way to improve next-generation wireless networks. Howe...

Silicon nanowires are valuable for their compatibility with silicon technology and unique properties. Using metal-assisted chemical etching, we produced silicon nanowires and studied the effects of clustering, roughness,...

We find that for adsorbed terephthalic acid (TPA) molecules surface Sn alloying deactivates the Cu(001) surface by decoupling the adsorbed molecules from the substrate. This effect is investigated for the case of the 0.5...

A pressing issue in materials science is the controlled application of ceramic composite materials at high temperatures in modern technologies, particularly in nuclear physics, atomic energy, aerospace, and rocket engine...
