Double‐shelled nanostructure of SnO2@C tube‐in‐SnO2@C tube boosts lithium‐ion storage by Tian, Qinghua, Zhang, Feng, Yang, Li, Chen, Peng

“…More importantly, the as-prepared SnO 2 @C DHNWs show outstanding electrochemical performance as a lithium-ion battery anode, that is, 774.5 and 462.5 mAh g −1 are retained at 200 and 1000 mA g −1 after 450 and even 1000 cycles, respectively, demonstrating high capacity, long lifespan, and good rate performances. Thus, excellent performance makes SnO 2 @C DHNWs a promising anode material for advanced lithium-ion batteries. …”

Common visual pattern discovery and analysis by Wang, Zhenzhen

“…Given a set of images, common pattern discovery aims to explore the re-occurring patterns based on their similarities and differences. It is a long-standing but challenging task. On the one hand, patterns are frequently occurring visual primitives, and they are present in various forms, such as local features, semantic visual parts or visual objects. …”

Osmotic oedometer using sodium chloride solution and reverse osmosis membrane by Bulolo, Sam, Leong, Eng Choon

“…Unlike the axis-translation technique and vapor equilibrium technique, the osmotic technique does not require a sealed chamber, but it is not as popular as the axis-translation technique and vapor equilibrium technique because the commonly used poly(ethylene glycol) solution and cellulosic membrane are susceptible to degradation during long-duration tests. This paper investigates the osmotic technique using sodium chloride solutions and a reverse osmosis membrane in a conventional oedometer. …”
