Designing perfect anomalous reflectors is crucial for achieving many metasurface-based applications, but available design approaches for the cases of extremely large bending angles either require unrealistic gain–loss ...

Introduction. Magnetic separation is one of the most effective and widely used techniques for the purification and enrichment of materials. It plays a crucial role in mineral processing, recycling, and environmental appl...

This work introduces a novel geometrical and analytical modeling framework for predicting the stiffness properties of knitted composites, a class of materials known for their complex architectures and versatile mechanica...

Endurance versus payload in UAVs is a direct trade-off governed by airframe mass and structural efficiency. Generative design (GD) and topology optimization (TO) are increasingly used to develop lightweight, high-perform...

Optical materials with nearly zero refractive indices have driven emerging applications ranging from geometry-invariant optical tunneling, nonlinear optics, optical cloaking to thermal emission manipulation. In conventio...

Abstract Metamaterials have gained much attention due to their exciting characteristics and potential uses in constructing valuable technologies. This paper presents a double negative square resonator shape metamaterial ...

Electroslag welding involves high heat input, which may cause material hardening in the weld and heat-affected zone. At the same time, the electroslag weld is in an inaccessible state, making the welding quality difficul...

Introduction Access to safe, high quality, acceptable and sustainable general practice (GP) and primary care services is essential to improved health outcomes and quality of life for people living in residential aged car...

In the period up to the end of the Second World War, 21 women in the Netherlands completed an academic architectural course. Five of these women married a fellow architect and conducted a joint architectural practice wit...

This Campbell systematic review assesses the effectiveness of school‐based decision‐making. The review summarises findings from 17 impact studies and nine studies of barriers and enablers. School‐based decision‐m...

Ag-Cu alloys used in sliding electrical contacts often fail by delamination under current-carrying friction. This study examines the delamination mechanism in AgCu10 by characterizing subsurface microstructural evolution...

This study investigates the complementary modulation of chitosan/keratin hydrogels through the combined use of hexamethylene diisocyanate (HDI) and Pluronic F-68, aiming to tailor mechanical stability, porosity, and biol...

This study investigates the impact of fiber composition and fabric structure on the liquid absorption and retention performance during pressure of weft-knitted fabrics designed for reusable incontinence products. Twelve ...

Conventional sulfur vulcanization in rubber manufacturing depends on elevated curing temperatures and zinc oxide activators, resulting in high energy consumption and increasing environmental concerns associated with zinc...

Bulk Ti–Ni–Cu–Pd alloys show decent thermal- and load-cycling stability, yet low strength and limited recoverable strain. Here, we design a gradient Ti–Ni–Cu–Pd ribbon via nanoscale dual-phase (nanocrystallin...

Heterostructured materials comprise domains with markedly different properties whose interactive coupling produces synergistic effects beyond the rule of mixtures. As the field advances, a key question is how to distingu...

In this study, an all-optical multiplexer (Mux) based on elliptical insulator-metal-insulator (IMI) plasmonic waveguides is designed. The area of the proposed structure is very small (400 nm × 400 nm) which oper...

We present the design for a novel type of dual-band photodetector in the thermal infrared spectral range, the Optically Controlled Dual-band quantum dot Infrared Photodetector (OCDIP). This concept is based on a quantum ...

Silver nanowires were synthesized by a polyol method with a detailed control of synthesis conditions such as injection rate, concentration of copper (II) chloride, and silver nitrate to poly(vinylpyrrolidone) ratio. The ...

Abstract Silica glass exhibits diverse structural configurations accompanied by densification under varying temperature and pressure conditions; these factors significantly influence its optical properties, such as the r...

This study focusing on a carbon fibre-reinforced polyamide 6 (CFPA6) crash box system designed, manufactured, and crash-tested within an aluminium environment as part of a novel automotive front-end structure (FES). A ke...

Medium-entropy superalloys (MESAs) show promise for extreme-temperature applications, yet their governing defect mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we reveal the hot-deformation behavior of a MESA at 1120 °C using atomic-...

Real Analysis is a compulsory subject for the 3rd grade students of Mathematics Education that most of students  are considered it as a difficult course, due to the abstract of material especially on the matter of the R...

Two-dimensional (2D) layered materials without centrosymmetry, such as GaSe, have emerged as promising novel optical materials due to large second-order nonlinear susceptibilities. However, their nonlinear responses are ...
