Multiband antenna for portable device applications by Honarvar, M. Amin, Hamidi, Naeemehsadat, Virdee, Bal Singh

“…The proposed antenna consists of a combination of E-shaped and C-shaped radiators that are excited via a common microstrip feed-line. Embedded in the ground-plane are included an open- and short-ended slots whose purpose is to enhance the antenna's impedance match and increase the number of bands in which the antenna can operate. …”

The way forward for the origin of life: prions and prion-like molecules first hypothesis by Jheeta, Sohan, Chatzitheodoridis, Elias, Devine, Kevin G., Block, Janice

“…This genetics-first hypothesis asserts that an “RNA-world era” came before protein-based chemical evolution and rests on a singular premise that molecules such as RNA, acetyl-CoA, and NAD are relics of a long line of chemical evolutionary processes preceding the Last Universal Common Ancestor (LUCA). …”

Social workers' experience of work under changing administrative forms: an empirical and theoretical critique of Braverman by Davies, Linda

“…Although social workers may wish to reduce the uncertainty surrounding child abuse practice, and despite management's desire to limit practitioner discretion, there remains an inevitable core of uncertainty in the nature of the work which generates the requirement for judgment on the part of the front-line worker. Braverman's approach proved too deterministic to cope with these questions. …”

Millimeter-wave high-gain SIW end-fire bow-tie antenna by Dadgarpour, Abdolmehdi, Zarghooni, Behnam, Virdee, Bal Singh, Denidni, Tayeb A.

“…The proposed antenna consists of a pair of bow-tie radiators, where each radiator is etched on the opposite side of the common dielectric substrate and fed through substrate integrated waveguide (SIW) feed-line. The bow-tie radiators are arranged to cross each other symmetrically by tilting the feed-lines by 30◦ to enhance the antenna gain and to obtain the required radiation pattern. …”
