Preventing Wetting Between Liquid Copper and Solid Steel
Abstract: Copper contamination of end-of-life steel scrap is the main barrier to high-quality recycling. Preferential melting of copper from solid steel scrap is a potential extraction technique, which could be integrated into...
Port Dada Integration
The maritime supply chain is growing in complexity. Ports are at the crossroads of many activities, modes, and stakeholders, and are actively becoming digital hubs. Today, digital and physical connectivity go hand in hand. The...

Time-Restricted Feeding Extends Longevity in Drosophila Melanogaster
Daniel Cabrera
Jan 01, 0001
Time-restricted feeding (TRF) is a dietary intervention in which daily feeding patterns align with behavioral patterns, synchronizing feeding times with periods of higher activity, e.g. humans eating only during the day or...

Scrap, carbon and cost savings from the adoption of flexible nested blanking
Abstract: Steel accounts for 6% of anthropogenic CO2 emissions, most of which arises during steelmaking rather than downstream manufacturing. While improving efficiency in steelmaking has received a great deal of attention...
Built environment and physical activity
Inácio Crochemore Mohnsam da Silva, Adriano Akira Hino, Adalberto Lopes, Ulf Ekelund, Soren Brage, Helen Gonçalves, Ana B Menezes, Rodrigo Siqueira Reis, Pedro Curi Hallal

Neural Processes Underlying Tool Use in Humans, Macaques, and Corvids
It was thought that tool use in animals is an adaptive specialization. Recent studies, however, have shown that some non-tool-users, such as rooks and jays, can use and manufacture tools in laboratory settings. Despite the...
Relationship between sensitivity to temporal fine structure and spoken language abilities in children with mild-to-moderate sensorineural hearing loss.
Children with sensorineural hearing loss show considerable variability in spoken language outcomes. The present study tested whether specific deficits in supra-threshold auditory perception might contribute to this variability....
The influence of UK emissions reduction targets on the emissions of the global steel industry
André Cabrera Serrenho, Zenaida Sobral Mourão, Jonathan Norman, Jonathan M. Cullen, Julian M. Allwood
Feb 01, 2016
The steel industry is the world's largest industrial source of CO2 emissions. Recent UK economic policies have led to reduced domestic steel production giving an apparent reduction in national emissions. However...

Distinctive Frontal and Occipitotemporal Surface Features in Neglectful Parenting
Inmaculada León, María José Rodrigo, Ileana Quiñones, Juan Andrés Hernández-Cabrera, Lorna García-Pentón
Mar 20, 2021
Although the brain signatures of adaptive human parenting are well documented, the cortical features associated with maladaptive caregiving are underexplored. We investigated whether cortical thickness and surface area vary in a...
What to Do about Plastics? Lessons from a Study of United Kingdom Plastics Flows.
Plastics are one of the most widely used materials on the planet, owing to their usefulness, durability, and relatively low cost. Yet, making, using, and disposing of plastics create important environmental impacts, most notably...
Enhancing Preoperative Planning in Orthopedic Trauma Surgery Using a Presentation Software.
Preoperative planning (PP) is critical to ensure a successful outcome in orthopaedic trauma surgery. Since it was first described thirty years ago, no modifications have been made to the original preoperative planning (OPP)...
