A hand-targeted auxiliary personal protective equipment for intervention of fomite transmission of viruses by Tan, Justin Kok Soon, Song, Shang Wei, Zeng, Jialiu, Lo, Chih Hung

“…Compared to conventional glove materials, FlexiPalm demonstrated enhanced mechanical durability and breathability, comparable hydrophobicity, and displayed a minimal adsorption of SARS-CoV-2 spike protein and virus-like particles (VLP). Importantly, FlexiPalm was found to bind significantly less viral protein and VLP than artificial human skin, confirming its ability to reduce viral contamination. …”

Local-flexural interactive buckling of S690 high strength steel slender welded I-section columns: testing, modelling and design by Sun, Yao, Liang, Yating, Su, Andi, Zhao, Ou

“…A testing programme, adopting two S690 high strength steel slender welded I-sections, was firstly conducted and included initial geometric imperfection measurements and ten pin-ended column tests. The testing programme was accompanied by a numerical modelling programme, where finite element models were developed and validated against the test results and then employed to perform parametric studies to generate further numerical data over a wide range of cross-section dimensions and member effective lengths. …”
