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. …”

The interrelation of EU law with inter se international agreements of the EU member states by Georgaki, K, Eleftheriadis, P

“…Chapter Four moves on to define the notion of ‘conflict’ between EU law and inter se agreements and provides the conceptual framework, within which it is to be grasped. Chapter Five explores the available conflict avoidance techniques, identifying two interrelated, yet distinct interpretative methods applicable to the context of this thesis: first, the principle of systemic integration, enshrined in Article 31(3)(c) of the Vienna Convention on the Law of Treaties (VCLT); and second, the principle of a consistent-with-EU-law interpretation of inter se agreements, as a special application of the principle of harmonious interpretation applied in international law. …”

Kierkegaardian selfhood as pursuit of the Greatest Commandment by Callaway, DA

“…Refusing to regard Kierkegaard’s grasp of Jesus’ injunction within the Greatest Commandment as referencing one love that is either synonymous with faith or mere sidebar concern en route to exposition of an ethics of neighbour love, this thesis examines what it means for a human being to love God <em>per se</em>. …”

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.…”
