Combined effects of muscle fatigue and decision making on knee joint biomechanics by Wang, Nan.

“…During the jumping followed by cutting maneuver under four simulated cases (i.e. pre-fatigue anticipated, pre-fatigue unanticipated, post-fatigue anticipated, and post-fatigue unanticipated), a motion capture system comprised by eight high-speed (200 fps) cameras was used to collect the three-dimensional coordinates of 18 reflective skin markers, which were attached to those interested positions prior to the experiment. …”

“…Despite the recognition of SSI in other surgical fields, there is a paucity of evidence in the neurosurgical literature devoted to skin closure, specifically in patients with brain tumors. …”

Ultrafast laser writing of liquid crystal waveguides by Chen, B, Xie, P, Zhao, Z, Salter, PS, Li, M, Xue, L, Qiu, X, Booth, MJ, Elston, SJ, Morris, SM

“…Following the UV polymerization step and subsequent delamination of the glass substrates, we demonstrate a free-standing flexible LC waveguide, which retains waveguide functionality even when bent, making it potentially suitable for on-skin sensors and other photonic devices that could interface with the human body. …”

Exploration of safe space for traumatic urban youths amidst urban growth by Hui Yen, Kok, Mohd Noor, Mohd Zairul, Lawrence D’silva, Jeffrey

“…For traumatised urban youths, a youth safe space can simply be access to refuge, a place where they feel safe and protected as well as being comfortable in their own skin. Youth require secure public areas where they can congregate, participate in activities that cater to their wide range of needs and interests, influence decisions, and express themselves freely. …”

Evaluating factors affecting mean glandular dose in mammography: insights from a retrospective study in Dubai by Mohammad Noor, Kaltham Abdulwahid, Mohd Norsuddin, Norhashimah, Abdul Karim, Muhammad Khalis, Che Isa, Iza Nurzawani, Ulaganathan, Vaidehi

“…Weak inverse correlations were found between age and organ dose (OD) for both views, while a direct relationship was observed between breast thickness and entrance skin dose (ESD). In adjusted models, ESD was strongly associated with MGD (β = 1.04, 95% CI: 0.97, 1.09), while OD showed a moderate association (β = 0.44, 95% CI: 0.40, 0.49). …”

Permanent makeup: a tattoo imitation procedure from the Shariah perspective by Musaddad, Nusaibah Anuar, Bakar, Elistina Abu, Zaidan, Uswatun Hasanah, Awang, Mohd Daud, Mohd Safian, Yasmin Hanani

“…This study concludes that Muslims should refrain from undergoing permanent makeup procedures because they involve skin penetration and the use of permanent pigments, making them comparable to tattoos, which are prohibited in Islam. …”

论王畿的 “三教合一” 观 = Wang Ji's thought and "Unity of the Three Teachings" by 陈碧琪 Tan, BiQi

“…“Unity of the Three Teachings” is a controversial concept, and its impact can be seen in both the philosophical world and society. This idea has a long history, but it is when Wang Yangming created the “School of the Heart-Mind” did “Unity of the Three Teachings” reach a new height in the Ming Dynasty.…”

Characterization of nickel-titanium based thin films crystallized by fast and ultra-fast annealing methods by Motemani Sharabiani, Yahya

“…The first part of the study is concerned with describing and correlating the evolution of structural, surfacial and nano-scale mechanical properties of amorphous Ti-Ni-Cu thin films crystallized by rapid thermal annealing (RTA), where the treatment takes place under a protected atmosphere by electromagnetic irradiation with fast heating rate (< 100 oC/sec). Long range order of amorphous Ti-Ni-Cu thin films was achieved in a few seconds (> 60 sec), with the optimum crystallization temperature of 480oC. …”

Design and Development of an Accelerated Material Synthesis Platform for Automated Materials Research by Aissi, Eunice I.

“…X-ray diffraction (XRD), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), and hyperspectral imaging measurements show equivalence between high-throughput synthesis and more traditional spin-coating methods. Results obtained through the high-throughput stability characterization method are aligned with stability trends reported in the literature and have an accuracy of 96.9% when compared to ground-truth degradation as measured by a domain expert.…”

Mechanically robust hydrophobic bio-based epoxy coatings for anti-corrosion application by Zheng, Shunli, Bellido-Aguilar, Daniel Angel, Huang, Yinjuan, Zeng, Xianting, Zhang, Qichun, Chen, Zhong

“…The coating was fabricated by introducing superhydrophobic SiO 2 nanoparticles, a hydrophobic curing agent, and hexadecyltrimethoxysilane into an isosorbide-based epoxy resin via a one-step spin coating process. The coating exhibits high hydrophobicity with a water contact angle (CA) of 134 ± 3°. …”
