Enlarged Co-O covalency in octahedral sites leading to highly efficient spinel oxides for oxygen evolution reaction by Zhou, Ye, Sun, Shengnan, Song, Jiajia, Xi, Shibo, Chen, Bo, Du, Yonghua, Fisher, Adrian C., Cheng, Fangyi, Wang, Xin, Zhang, Hua, Xu, Zhichuan Jason

“…While the pH-dependent OER activity of ZnFe0.4 Co1.6 O4 (the optimal one) indicates decoupled proton-electron transfers during the OER, the involvement of lattice oxygen is not considered as a favorable route because of the downshifted O p-band center relative to Fermi level governed by the spinel's cation deficient nature.…”

Long term surface deformation of Soufrière Hills volcano, Montserrat from GPS geodesy : inferences from simple elastic inverse models by Herd, Richard A., Strutt, Michael H., Ryan, Graham., Widiwijayanti, Christina., Voight, Barry., Mattioli, Glen.

“…The average best-fitting single Mogi model yields X = 0.3 ± 0.5 km, Y = 0.8 ± 0.4 km, and a depth of Z = 10.4 ± 2.1 km (1-σ, Z positive down), relative to the center of the model domain. The mean Mogi depth for effusive (deflation) versus repose (inflation) is different and significant at >90% confidence, yielding Z = 11.4 ± 2.0 km and 9.3 ± 1.6 km, respectively. …”

Structure-activity relationships of photo-activated soft tissue Adhesive by Wicaksono, Gautama

“…Finally, to demonstrate potential applications, the proposed CaproGlu bioadhesive is mixed with osseointegrative additive to form a bone cement biocomposite using a model PMMA pin that allows biocomposite curing through a transparent light guide, with resulting lap shear strength up to 40 kPa. Overall, this diazirine-based adhesive system demonstrates a novelty in adhesive design where excellent tunability in material properties can be achieved by modifying composition (adding liquid polymer or solid particles) and light activation parameters (power, wavelength) with direct application towards soft and hard tissue adhesion.…”
