Fixture plays an important part in constraining excessive sheet metal part deformation at machining, assembly, and measuring stages during the whole manufacturing process. However, it is still a difficult and nontrivial task to design and optimize sh...
The ionic polymer-metal composite (IPMC) is a soft material based actuator and sensor and has a promising potential in underwater application. This paper describes a hybrid biomimetic underwater vehicle that uses IPMCs as sensors. Propelled by the en...
In the process of macromolecular model building, crystallographers must examine electron density for isolated atoms and differentiate sites containing structured solvent molecules from those containing elemental ions. This task requires specific know...
Growth in energy demands, coupled with the need for clean energy, are likely to make solar cells an important part of future energy resources. In particular, cells entirely made of metal oxides (MOs) have the potential to provide clean and affordable...
We investigated the bioremoval of Cd(II) in batch mode, using dead and living biomass of Trichoderma viride. Kinetic studies revealed three distinct stages of the biosorption process. The pseudo-second order model and the Langmuir model described wel...
Microplastics (MPs) are increasingly recognized as interfacial substrates for microbial adhesion and metal adsorption in aquatic environments. However, the temporal sequence and causality of MPs-microbial-metal interactions remain poorly understood. ...
Australia's national citizen science program VegeSafe has collected and analysed over 26,000 residential garden soil samples for their trace metal concentrations, enabling a more comprehensive understanding of the factors influencing contamination. H...
