Modelling Uptake Sensitivities of Connected and Automated Vehicle Technologies
Connected and automated vehicle (CAV) technologies and services are rapidly developing and have the potential to revolutionise the transport systems. However, like many innovations, the uptake pathways are uncertain. The focus...
Hexagonal boron nitride nanosheets doped pyroelectric ceramic composite for high-performance thermal energy harvesting

Recently, recycling energy from wasted heat with pyroelectric materials has received significant attention. However, pyroelectric energy harvesters generally suffer from a low energy efficiency due to the low rates of heat...

Secondary Metabolites of Osmanthus fragrans
Osmanthus fragrans (scientific name: Osmanthus fragrans (Thunb.) Lour.) is a species of the Osmanthus genus in the family Oleaceae, and it has a long history of cultivation in China. O. fragrans is edible and is well known for...
Decarbonizing university campuses through the production of biogas from food waste
The amount of food waste production in China catering industry is approximately 17–18 Mt per year. This sector accounts for about 20% of the total food losses in China. China's National Development and Reform commission has...

Assessing cross laminated timber (CLT) as an alternative material for mid-rise residential buildings in cold regions in China-A life-cycle assessment approach

Timber building has gained more and more attention worldwide due to it being a generic renewable material and having low environmental impact. It is widely accepted that the use of timber may be able to reduce the embodied...

Modelling the Effects of Chemical Dispersant on the Fate of Spilled Oil
The proposed Energy East pipeline project has raised concerns about potential oil spills in Saint John, New Brunswick, due to increased tanker traffic. While environmental conditions such as strong tide and current could pose...

Distribution of horseradish peroxidase (HRP)- anti-HRP immune complexes in mouse spleen with special reference to follicular dendritic cells
The distribution of immune complexes has been studied in mouse spleen stimulated to contain many germinal centers (GC?s). Horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-anti-HRP complexes were used as an appropriately precise and sensitive model....

The different catalytic roles of the metal- binding ligands in human 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase
4‐Hydroxylphenylpyruvatedioxygenase (HPPD) is a non‐haem iron(II)‐dependent oxygenase that catalyzes the conversion of 4‐hydroxylphenylpyruvate (HPP) to homogentisate (HG). In the active site, a strictly conserved 2‐His‐1‐Glu...
Impact of Irradiation on the Pharmacokinetics and Biotransformation of Tamoxifen.
BACKGROUND: The optimal procedure for combining radiotherapy (RT) with tamoxifen treatment is controversial as RT may alter the pharmacokinetics and biotransformation of tamoxifen. The present study investigated this potential...

Understanding the complexity of existing fossil fuel power plant decarbonization.
Growing national decarbonization commitments require rapid and deep reductions of carbon dioxide emissions from existing fossil-fuel power plants. Although retrofitting existing plants with carbon capture and storage or biomass...
Semantic Web-Based Identification of Key Causative Factors and Chains for Team Error in NPPs' ACR
Team errors are identified as a major contributor to incidents in safety-critical systems like nuclear power plants (NPPs). Safety in NPPs is more dependent on team performance than individual, and reducing team errors requires...
Improved heat transfer for pyroelectric energy harvesting applications using a thermal conductive network of aluminum nitride in PMN–PMS–PZT ceramics
The harvesting of waste heat is attracting increasing attention, due to its abundance and potential benefits to the environment. However, the need for high heat transfer rates in thermal harvesting systems is a longstanding...
