The authors present a new optimisation method for pattern synthesis of multi-feed reflector antennas in this study. By using an invasive weed optimisation (IWO) algorithm, shaped beam …
In this study, we present the fabrication of a two-step thermoresponsive ultrafiltration (UF) membrane through polymerization of a lyotropic liquid crystal (LLC). A mixture of commercially …
Foam-templated hydrogels are promising porous materials with fast water uptake kinetics. However, conventional fabrication methods require multiple additives or produce large, …
Nanoemulsions have adjustable transparency, tunable rheology, high stability, and low sensitivity to changes in pH and temperature, which make them interesting for applications such …
The destruction of soil through wind erosion is a common issue across the world, but especially for arid and semi-arid regions that deal with water scarcity. The cost due to wind erosion, …
PURPOSE: We compared predictability, efficacy, safety, and patient satisfaction following laser epithelial keratomileusis (LASEK) and photorefractive keratectomy (PRK) for low to …
Perfluoroalkyl acids (PFAAs), a subclass of per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), are widely used but pose significant environmental concerns due to their toxicity and …
We produce controlled nanostructured membranes from cross-linking of self-assembled diacrylated poloxamers. At sufficiently high concentrations, poloxamers form lyotropic liquid …
A set of highly concentrated water-in-oil emulsions with supersaturated dispersed phase were investigated in this work to verify and/or develop the models that have been presented …
Polymerization of high internal phase emulsions (polyHIPEs) is a well-established method for the production of high porosity foams. Researchers are often regulated to using a time-…
