Negative density dependence promotes persistence of a globally rare yet locally abundant plant species Oenothera coloradensis by Stears, AE, Heidel, B, Paniw, M, Salguero-Gómez, R, Laughlin, DC

“…Consequently, several mechanisms have been proposed to explain their persistence, including negative density dependence, demographic compensation, vital rate buffering, asynchronous responses of subpopulations to environmental heterogeneity, and fine-scale source-sink dynamics. Persistence of seeds in a seed bank, which is often ignored in models of population dynamics, can also buffer small populations against collapse. …”

Scheduled activity energy-aware distributed cluster- based routing algorithm for wireless sensor networks with non-uniform node distribution by Nokhanji, Nooshin

“…The main and definitive target of routing protocols in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is passing data from the sensor nodes to the sink in most energy efficient manner besides considering the accuracy of data. …”

The effects of processing conditions on the morphology of single conjugated polymers. by Yeo, Hui Lin.

“…The photoluminescent lifetime of spun-cast single regioregular poly (3-hexylthiophene) (RR P3HT) was found to be significantly larger (2 – 3.5ns) than that of drop-cast chains and that in solution (<0.5ns), which likely implies a chain conformational dependence on the processing method used. …”

Small molecule motion within and through organic nanomaterials: an anthology by Kaser, Sam

“…These experiments were enabled by co-assembly of AAs with stable nitroxide radical spin labels into the nanoribbon ensemble. Distinct conformational behavior is resolved between domains, and variable temperature studies enable description of each spin label environment through phase transition characterization and activation energy analysis. …”

Efficient generation of an array of single silicon-vacancy defects in silicon carbide by Wang, Junfeng, Zhou, Yu, Zhang, Xiaoming, Liu, Fucai, Li, Yan, Li, Ke, Liu, Zheng, Wang, Guanzhong, Gao, Weibo

“…Color centers in silicon carbide have increasingly attracted attention in recent years owing to their excellent properties such as single-photon emission, good photostability, and long spin-coherence time even at room temperature. As compared to diamond, which is widely used for hosting nitrogen-vacancy centers, silicon carbide has an advantage in terms of large-scale, high-quality, and low-cost growth, as well as an advanced fabrication technique in optoelectronics, leading to prospects for large-scale quantum engineering. …”

Induction of z-conformation in ribosomal RNA by Z-DNA binding domain Zα of the human double-stranded RNA deaminase I (ADAR1) by Zhao, Jing

“…In order to provide theoretical foundations for the analysis of NMR spectral responses of ZαADAR1 to ribosomes we attempted to extend the conventional NMR relaxation theory to include a semi solid-state treatment of nuclear spin dynamics in large complexes. The main challenge to the classical NMR theory arises when one of the binding partners is so large that in the chemical shift time scale of solution NMR (milliseconds) it can be considered as practically static or solid-state-like. …”

Design of robot integrated restaurant by Santhosh Pandiaraj

“…On top of that, this project shows how robots tend to be much more efficient and productive in their service as they do not grow tired as the day goes by, do not need to take breaks or medical leaves like humans do. The fact that robots can consistently cook and serve food which meet the desired standard of the restaurant owners, regardless of how long they have been working makes them standout as well. …”
