Layered construction of integrated sulfur-bridged CoNi-S/rGO architecture for enhanced electrochemical energy storage by Aboelazm, Eslam Atef Abdelaziz, Khe, Chengseong, Grätz, Sven, Chong, Kwok Feng, Mohamed Shuaib, Mohamed Saheed, Hegazy, Mohamed Barakat Zakaria

“…Remarkable results were realised by forming a layered structure of CoNi-S/rGO in which rGO sheets wrap CoNi-S flakes. Interestingly, the CoNi-S/rGO composite exhibited a specific capacitance of 3308F g−1 (1654C g−1) at 1 A g−1, outperforming the performance of a single CoNi-S component, which recorded 2155F g−1 (1077.5C g−1) at identical conditions. …”

Population study on the freshwater crabs in Nee Soon swamp forest, Singapore. by Woo, Chia Mun.

“…Study was performed by hand and trap sampling in eight sites for four cycles. All four species were encountered in this study, with Parathelphusa maculata (P. maculata) as the most abundant species appearing at most sites, followed by Parathelphusa reticulata (P. reticulata), Irmengardia johnsoni (I. johnsoni) and Geosesarma peraccae (G. peraccae). …”

Systems medicine disease : disease classification and scalability beyond networks and boundary conditions by Berlin, Richard, Gruen, Russell, Best, James

“…Traditional classification methods remain trapped by history; to provide the descriptive features that are required for a comprehensive description of disease, systems science, which realizes dynamic processes, adaptive response, and asynchronous communication channels, must be applied (Wolkenhauer et al., 2013). …”

Farm-Scale Water Storage in Morocco: Low-Carbon Design with Parametric FEA Optimization by Trézarieu, Raphaël

“…Rising temperatures have resulted in drier and denser soil, causing water to be trapped on the surface and evaporate. One solution is to shift water management from large-scale to farm-scale. …”

Finding meaning behind immortality of Anne Rice’s vampires. by Nurhayati Zakaria.

“…This paper investigates the alluring appeal of immortality through the exploration of humans’ instinctive anxieties against death; it shows how experience in life shapes an individual’s personality and character which in turn is fossilized and magnified during his or her immortal existence; and finally illustrates how the very nature of being trapped in a state of arrested development renders the disenchanted vampire’s perspective of immortality as one that is more limiting rather than liberating.…”

Electrical charge transport and optical properties of iron pyrite by Shukla, Sudhanshu

“…Charge carrier dynamics in nanocube thin film revealed fast carrier localization and long-lived trap states in the pure pyrite. Temperature dependent electrical and magnetic behaviors supported the existence of intrinsic localized gap states. …”

New derivatives of polyglutamic acid as drug carrier systems by Hoste, K, Schacht, E, Seymour, L

“…Dynamic light-scattering measurements and surface tension measurements indicated that phase separation of dextran/PHEG and PEG occurs on a molecular level in the conjugates and results in the formation of aggregates with a PEG core in which free PEG can be trapped. Blood clearance and body distribution studies were performed on female BALB/c mice. …”

Phase-separating peptides for direct cytosolic delivery and redox-activated release of macromolecular therapeutics by Sun, Yue, Lau, Sze Yi, Lim, Zhi Wei, Chang, Shi Chieh, Ghadessy, Farid, Partridge, Anthony, Miserez, Ali

The effects of processing conditions on the morphology of single conjugated polymers. by Yeo, Hui Lin.

“…Spun-cast single chains were largely found to give neat intensity traces exhibiting discrete emission levels and clear off-states, suggesting a compact and collapsed disordered conformation favoring efficient energy funneling to one or a few low-energy exciton traps. These emissive centers of the collapsed chain were proposed to be intrachain aggregates consisting of closely π-stacked segments, therefore possessing weak oscillator strength and an extended radiative lifetime. …”
