Abstract Contrast enhancement technique is a prevalent problem in aiding interpretation of Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) images. A low contrast MRI image may prove to be problematic in identifying medical problems suc...

Subsea cables are critical infrastructure that are susceptible to damage from anchor drops, necessitating robust protection systems. This study evaluated the crashworthiness of a duct-type reinforced concrete protection ...

Delhi, one of the fastest-urbanising megacities in the Global South, has undergone severe fragmentation of blue-green spaces (BGS) over three decades, driving deterioration of urban ecosystem health through impervious-su...

The precise treatment and dynamic management of traumatic brain injury pose a substantial challenge to the global healthcare sector. This challenge arises not only from the complex and dynamically evolving pathological m...

Numerous seismic damage investigations have demonstrated that reinforced concrete (RC) frame structures tend to exhibit a Strong-beam Weak-column failure mechanism, which contradicts the intended Strong-column Weak-beam ...

Abstract The productivity decline of technological wells during in situ leaching (ISL) is primarily associated with clogging of well filters and the near-filter zone, leading to a significant increase in hydraulic resist...

Xylans are essential components of wood cell walls, composed of β-(1 → 4)-linked d-xylopyranosyl units with diverse substitutions, including 4-O-methyl-α-D-glucuronic acid. Industrial pruning of Moringa oleifera gene...

ABSTRACT Proton exchange membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) is a compelling route for sustainable green hydrogen production. Yet Ir‐based oxygen evolution reaction (OER) catalysts suffer from a persistent trade‐off ...

This study evaluates the low-velocity impact response of aerospace-grade epoxy laminates (M18/1) interleaved with four distinct thermoplastic films (PEI, PES, PSU, PC). Impact performance was correlated with quasi-static...

Abstract Over the last two decades, researchers have focused on natural reinforcement composites as choice to conventional and man-made fiber composites due to their enhanced properties. While many research has studied t...

Abstract In this study, we reported the synthesis and characterization of a novel magnetic polystyrene nanocatalyst functionalized with L-glutamine (L-Glu-MPS) and evaluation of its catalytic performance in a multicompon...

Abstract Background Cumulus granulosa cells (CGCs) are essential for oocyte support, metabolic cooperation, and steroidogenesis, yet they deteriorate rapidly in conventional 2D culture, limiting long-term studies of thes...

This study employs molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to systematically investigate the effects of the degree of polymerization (DP 10, 20, and 35) on the mechanical and tribological properties of nitrile butadiene rubb...

This paper presents the development of a bioinspired multifunctional flexible optical sensor (BioMFOS) as an ultrasensitive tool for force (intensity and location) and orientation sensing. The sensor structure is bioinsp...

This integrative review synthesizes current knowledge on the physiological responses and adaptive mechanisms of amphibians and reptiles to multiple interacting environmental stressors, with particular emphasis on synergi...

Abstract Internal explosions within ship compartments pose a severe threat to structural integrity. To investigate the plastic dynamic response of ship bulkheads under such loading, this study presents a comprehensive ap...

BackgroundStage F3 liver fibrosis represents a critical phase for intercepting the progression toward irreversible cirrhosis. Despite its clinical significance, effective interventions remain scarce. Clinical observation...

Abstract The use of skim milk is a strategy to increase goat milk yogurt acceptability. However, it can negatively affect yogurt rheology because fat plays a vital role in dairy structural integrity. Thus, this study aim...

The rock-cut heritage of the Kayseri Valleys represents a distinctive vernacular tradition shaped by technological skill, social practices, and environmental adaptation. These systems, evolving from carved spaces to maso...

Abstract Background Vascular endothelial inflammation is a key pathological process underlying various inflammatory vascular conditions, which can lead to severe cardiovascular complications. Shexiang Tongxin Dropping Pi...

Processing residues from adult Tenebrio molitor were evaluated as a sustainable source of chitin and chitosan through an optimized enzyme-assisted extraction strategy. Preliminary proximate analysis revealed a high chiti...

Abstract This study investigates the influence of graphene nanoparticle (GNP) reinforcement on the fatigue behavior of textile structural composites with unidirectional (UD), two-dimensional (2D) satin, and three-dimensi...

Abstract Background Occupational therapy practices are expanding in Turkey; however, pediatric professionals lack validated, client-centered assessment instruments for children with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disord...

Traditional poppy vinegar is a functional fermented food matrix enriched with diverse biomolecules that may contribute to metabolic health. In this study, the effects of thermosonication on the biomolecular profile, anti...
