ObjectiveTo address the false-negative risk associated with trace contamination of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 （SARS-CoV-2） on cold-chain food and packaging material surfaces， this study aimed t...

Near-surface molecular-beam mass spectrometry (ns-MBMS) is a highly sensitive and non-destructive method for temporal monitoring of catalytic conversions on solid surfaces, yet not widely applied in heterogeneous catalys...

Abstract In the present investigation, friction stir processing (FSP) is implemented to develop the tungsten carbide (WC) nanoparticle-reinforced aluminum alloy Al6061-T6. The tensile properties of the Al6061-T6/WC surfa...

Context. Recent results suggest that there is a group of trans-Neptunian objects (TNOs) (2003 EL61 being the biggest member), with surfaces composed of almost pure water ice and with very similar orbital elements. These ...

Abstract The development of battery electric vehicles (BEVs) is actively progressing; however, increasing battery capacity remains difficult, and the required driving range has not been achieved. Consequently, methods to...

Abstract A method for measuring the surface energy of solids and for resolving the surface energy into contributions from dispersion and dipole‐hydrogen bonding forces has been developed. It is based on the measurement...

We present the Met Office Hadley Centre's sea ice and sea surface temperature (SST) data set, HadISST1, and the nighttime marine air temperature (NMAT) data set, HadMAT1. HadISST1 replaces the global sea ice and sea surf...

We present a new algorithm, called marching cubes, that creates triangle models of constant density surfaces from 3D medical data. Using a divide-and-conquer approach to generate inter-slice connectivity, we create a cas...

We present a new continuum solvation model based on the quantum mechanical charge density of a solute molecule interacting with a continuum description of the solvent. The model is called SMD, where the "D" stands for "d...

We developed interpolated climate surfaces for global land areas (excluding Antarctica) at a spatial resolution of 30 arc s (often referred to as 1-km spatial resolution). The climate elements considered were monthly pre...

Controlling the construction of physical colors on the surfaces of transparent dielectric crystals is crucial for surface coloration and anti-counterfeiting applications. In this study, we present a novel approach to cre...

Microplastics in agricultural soils may act as sorptive agents for organic contaminants. This study investigated the effects of soil aging of linear low-density polyethylene (LLDPE) microplastics on the sorption and deso...

The effect of immersion of decoction water of Red Betel Leaf (Piper crocatum) on the surface hardness of composite resin. The purpose of this study was to determine the effect of immersion of decoction water of red betel...

Abstract In recent years, additive manufacturing (AM) has gained popularity in the aerospace, automobile, and medical industries due to its ability to produce complex profiles with minimal tolerances. Micro-milling is re...

Abstract Single Point Incremental Forming (SPIF) offers high flexibility for producing complex sheet metal components. However, simultaneous high formability and high surface integrity remain problematic with aluminium a...

Abstract A high-precision evaluation of ultrasonic detection sensitivity for a micro-crack can be restricted by a corroded rough surface when the surface microtopography is of the same order of magnitude as the crack dep...

Peri-urban horticulture is crucial to local populations, but a global paucity of information exists regarding the contamination of the associated waterways because of this activity. The aim of this study was to assess pe...

The topographic growth of mountain ranges at convergent margins results from the complex interaction between the motion of lithospheric plates, crustal shortening, rock uplift and exhumation. Constraints on the timing an...

Spectroscopic photoemission microscopy is used to detect and quantify a ponderomotive shift in the energy of electrons that are emitted from a surface plasmon polariton focus. The focus is formed on an atomically flat Au...

Droplets provide unique opportunities for the investigation of laser-induced surface chemistry. Chemical reactions on the surface of charged droplets are ubiquitous in nature and can provide critical insight into more ef...

The capability of paramegnetic iron-containing hydroxyapatite (Fe-nAp) and waste bioorganic subtrates templeted iron-containing hydroxyapatite (SBO-Fe-nAp) nanoparticles, as Pb(II) cations adsorbants were investigated an...

Although distal stifle joint nerve distribution has been well established in domestic animals, this approach is scarcely reported in wild animals. Therefore, the aim of this study was to describe the nerves of the leg an...

To elucidate the influence of bi-substitution on the structural and hyperfine properties of goetites, two series of (Al,Co)- and (Mn,Co)-substituted goethites were synthesized in alkaline media by aging several ferrihydr...

Abstract Given the escalating challenges of water scarcity and climate change, enhancing water productivity is crucial for achieving water security, particularly in arid regions with finite water resources. This study as...
