Mechanical performance and microstructural development of MgO-SiO2-H2O systems by Sonat, Cem

“…The high performance achieved by MgO-SiO2 mixes under ambient conditions has led to scientific interest in the exploration of their potential to be utilized in structural and non-structural construction applications. In line with this interest, the main goal of this study was to analyse the mechanical performance and microstructural development of MgO-SiO2-H2O systems and evaluate the stability of the formed phases under various conditions. …”

Amino-functionalised β-diketiminate ligands (N-nacnacs): Synthesis and coordination chemistry with Main Group elements by Huan, D

“…The proposed mechanism suggests that in most cases, strong σ-donating groups favour the N,C-chelate aza-butadienyl configuration under ambient conditions. This is broadly in line with the experimental findings, with the exception of the R = P(SiMe₃)₂ system which, together with the σ-withdrawing R = Cl system, exists in the N-nacnac-chelate form at room temperature.…”

Genetic and observational associations of nuclear magnetic resonance-measured lipid-related traits and atherosclerotic cardiovascular mortality in the Mexico City Prospective Study by Wang, Y

“…In cross-sectional analyses, complex correlation patterns within and across the same lipoprotein category within NMR lipid panels were observed, in line with their biochemical structures and interactions in lipid metabolism. …”

Understanding the role of Enterococcus faecalis in polymicrobial wounds by Davient, Bala

“…Since E. faecalis T7SS encodes toxins involved in bacterial competition, but not the MPT and EET systems, I hypothesized that a link between the energy metabolism systems and the T7SS may exist. …”

A machine-learned approach for reducing airborne delays and environmental impact in terminal manoeuvring area using extended arrival management by Lim, Zhi Jun

“…Air traffic management divides the airspace into three sections: the airport control zone (taxiing, takeoff, landing), the terminal manoeuvring area (TMA, for climbs and descents), and the en-route airspace (cruise). The TMA, a critical link between en-route airspace and the airport, is a major source of airborne delays. …”
