A room-temperature refuelable lithium, iodine and air battery by Tan, Kim Seng, Grimsdale, Andrew Clive, Yazami, Rachid

“…Unlike conventional rechargeable Li batteries, this kind of cell can be re-fueled in several minutes by replacing the spent liquids. We also show for the first time, that Li-SES/I2 cells which operate at room temperature, can be prepared in a fully discharged state (~0 V OCV) for safe handling, transportation and storage. …”

Political consciousness political discourse and internet usage. by Lim, Nona Yean Hong., Tan, Christine Seok Hong.

“…As such, this study postulates the following: that the amount of time spent on the internet will have no impact on political discourse; that an increase in the level of political consciousness may not correlate with an increase in the amount of time spent on the internet; that those who have high levels of political consciousness will have high level of political discourse; that the higher the level of political consciousness, the more likely the user is to use the internet for expressing opinions on national issues; and that those who use the internet for expression of opinions on national issues are likely to be more actively engaged in political discourse. …”

Associations of accelerometer-measured physical activity, sedentary behaviour, and sleep with next-day cognitive performance in older adults: a micro-longitudinal study by Bloomberg, M, Brocklebank, L, Doherty, A, Hamer, M, Steptoe, A

“…Physical behaviour (time spent in moderate-to-vigorous physical activity [MVPA], light physical activity [LPA], and sedentary behaviour [SB]) and sleep characteristics (overnight sleep duration, time spent in rapid eye movement [REM] sleep and slow wave sleep [SWS]) were extracted from accelerometers, with sleep stages derived using a novel polysomnography-validated machine learning algorithm. …”

Credit card cue effect : how mere exposure to credit card cues promotes consumers’ perceived financial well-being and spending by Wong, King Yin, Lynn, Michael

“…Findings: After being shown credit-card cues, spendthrift participants had more spending-related thoughts and less debt-related thoughts, perceived of themselves as having better financial well-being, and consequently spent more than tightwad participants. Originality/value: To the authors’ knowledge, this is the first study to investigate the direct link between an exposure to credit-card cues and perceived financial well-being, and one of the few to show evidence of the moderating effect of consumers’ sensitivity to the pain of payment on spending when credit-card cues are present. …”

Upcycling of homogeneous food waste in 3D printing food inks by Lim, Fiona Xin Ying

“…In this study, we explored various hydrocolloids (sodium alginate, kappa carrageenan, and thermoplastic starch) alongside different food wastes like butterhead lettuce, okara, sesame cake, and brewer’s spent grain to develop food waste inks. Through 3D food printing, rheological tests, and storage tests, we gained insights into viscosity, shear-thinning behaviour, recovery characteristics, and long-term stability of the inks, assessing their impact on printability. …”
