Cancer therapy and food preservation both face significant challenges related to stability, targeted delivery, safety, and efficiency of active compounds. Biopolymer-based nanoparticles, particularly those derived from c...

Thermoset and fiber-reinforced composites (FRCs) are widely adopted for their exceptional mechanical strength, thermal resistance, and chemical stability that have demonstrated versatile applications across aerospace, au...

The objective of this research is to explore pathways for the creation of Smart Villages in the Mediterranean context, with a focus on the Madonie Park—an extensive area comprising 21 municipalities within a UNESCO Glo...

This review provides a comprehensive analysis of the current state, progress, and challenges of thin-film solar cells based on Cu(In,Ga)Se₂ (CIGS) and Cu₂ZnSn(S,Se)₄ (CZTS(Se)) absorber materials. The study highlig...

Today’s farming is up against the tough task of boosting crop yields while also taking care of the environment. The way pesticides and herbicides are usually applied can be a real hassle. It's often not very efficient,...

Italian historic centres face critical challenges balancing heritage conservation with contemporary needs, particularly in regions like Calabria where smaller settlements experience depopulation, decay, and inadequate se...

Public service organisations, particularly universities, lack structured methods to evaluate their operational readiness for digital transformation, hindering strategic planning in the Industry 4.0 era. This paper addres...

As the Internet of Things (IoT) in critical information infrastructure rapidly scales up, its widespread deployment in sectors such as energy, transportation, and industry is introducing unprecedented security challenges...

Additive manufacturing (AM) is a rapidly growing industrial fabrication technology. It provides engineers with a growing library of advanced materials, ranging from thermoplastics to metals and cement-based composites, e...

Abstract Photovoltaic (PV) systems have become one of the most important solutions to sustainable energy production due to the growing demand of renewable energy and the necessity to harness energy in the most efficient ...

The increasing release of greenhouse gases (GHGs), particularly CO2, continues to drive global warming and highlights the need for effective mitigation technologies. In this study, porous nanostructured cellulose acetate...

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...

Water scarcity is mostly experienced within most parts of the world; This calls for the design of a portable, self-contained, low-cost desalination unit that can be used easily in an emergency or water shortages. This wo...
