Bacterial biofilm colonization and succession in tropical marine waters are similar across different types of stone materials used in seawall construction by Summers, Stephen, Pek, Y. Shona, Vinod, Deepthi P., McDougald, Diane, Todd, Peter A., Birch, William R., Rice, Scott A.

“…Metagenomic assessment of marine microbial communities indicated no significant impact of material on microbial diversity, irrespective of the diverse surface chemistry and topography. Based on KEGG pathway analysis, surface properties appeared to influence the community composition and function during the initial stages of biofilm development, but this effect disappeared by Day 31. …”

Crosslinker energy landscape effects on dynamic mechanical properties of ideal polymer hydrogels by Khare, Eesha, de Alcântara, Amadeus C. S., Lee, Nic, Skaf, Munir S., Buehler, Markus J.

“…We report that, for an ideal network, the energy potential of the crosslinker interaction drives the viscosity of the network, where a stronger potential results in a higher viscosity. Additional topographical analyses reveal a mechanistic understanding of the structural rearrangement of the network as it deforms and indicate that as the number of defects increases in the network, the viscosity of the network increases. …”
