The third imperative: framework for the relational values of nature by Tan, Rebecca Si En

“…Current work on the values of nature tends to focus on intrinsic and instrumental values of nature. In the face of escalating climate issues, however, it is becoming increasingly important to accurately identify and target people’s motivations in supporting sustainable policy. …”

Optical remote spectral acquisition of elemental stoichiometry by Reeves, JT, Hasnain, SS, Nessel, MP, Talbot, CJ, Thomson, ER

“…Optical remote sensing (RS) enables the study of the elemental composition of Earth’s surface over broad spatial extents by detecting reflected electromagnetic radiation. Covalent bonds of macromolecular structures often reflect electromagnetic radiation at specific wavelengths, and in some cases relate to bonds of specific elemental identity. …”

Green gatekeepers by Enriques, L, Romano, A, Tuch, A

“…Products are routinely labeled “carbon neutral,” “recycled,” “biode¬gradable,” “ocean-friendly,” and “sustainable.” Bonds are marketed as “green” and mutual funds as “ESG,” while firms may pledge to become “net zero.” …”

Like the sea: living communityship as a form of participatory leadership within the creativity for learning in HE (#creativeHE) community by Nerantzi, Chrissi, Gillaspy, Emma, Sinfield, Sandra, Karatsiori, Marianthi, Burns, Tom, Hunter, Anna, Seat, Hannah, Tasler, Nathalie

“…Their humane and affective bonds as a collective provide a safe and calm working space in which everybody can flourish.…”

Role of ex-situ HfO2 passivation to improve device performance and suppress X-ray-induced degradation characteristics of in-situ Si3N4/AlN/GaN MIS-HEMTs by Dalapati, Pradip, Li, Hanchao, Arulkumaran, Subramaniam, Ng, Geok Ing

“…X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results suggest that several Si-N bonds in stoichiometric Si3N4 and Hf-O bonds in HfO2 passivation film can be broken under X-ray irradiation, where numerous charges might be trapped easily and deteriorate the interface quality. …”

A signal through the noise: accurate determination of hydrogen atom positions in crystal structures and optimisation of Laue neutron diffraction methods by Sackman, GA

“…This has allowed a variety of chemically and crystallographically interesting studies to be performed, specifically:</p> <p>Determining the novel geometry around transition-metal hydride centers, where the signal due to the hydrides can be more confidently distinguished than in an X-ray diffraction experiment; using Laue neutron derived difference Fourier maps to demonstrate that proton disorder can be mistakenly assigned in X-ray derived crystallographic models; performing variable temperature Laue neutron diffraction to identify proton migratory behaviour across short-strong hydrogen bonds; reassigning the space group of a previously reported cobalt(III) coordination complex, in which the lack of inversion symmetry becomes apparent upon accurate determination of the hydrogen atom positions; using Laue neutron diffraction data to more confidently classify systems as co-crystals or salts.…”

Protein interactions design. by Tay, Connie Gui Ching.

“…The definition of these residues was another challenge faced in protein interface design. In our design protocol, we used a general cutoff distance of 4.75Å obtained by taking into consideration hydrogen bond residues and solvent accessibility. …”

Solidarity as a transformative practice by Cipollitti, PE

“…By studying existing theories and reflecting on real-world cases, I present a normative account of solidarity suited to confront the globalized, overlapping injustices we face in our world today. I argue in Chapter 1 that we should conceptualize solidarity as a political bond, realized through action, that unites members of social groups on the basis of a shared understanding of reality and a shared commitment to justice; and as a socially, interpersonally, and personally transformative practice. …”

Study of a dry fixed-vane revolving compressor by Toh, Shaun Jia Hui

“…The changes are made in areas where there is high metal-to-metal contact such as the vane-side, rotor end faces and journal bearings. Major changes to equations were made in the rotor end-face expressions, where the rubbing at the upper end-face is not considered as non-contact occurs as a result of gravity. …”

Dissonances in care: childhood, well-being, and the politics of welfare in Japan by Chapman, CR

“…Japanese child welfare is a disaggregated system; I emphasize polyvocality to illuminate the nuances between varied spaces of care practice, ranging from casework agencies to the side streets of group homes. …”

Modifying the Molecular Structure of Carbon Nanotubes through Gas-Phase Reactants by Giannetto, Michael J., Johnson, Eric P., Watson, Adam, Dimitrov, Edgar, Kurth, Andrew, Shi, Wenbo, Fornasiero, Francesco, Meshot, Eric R., Plata, Desiree L.

“…Using acetylene, methyl acetylene, and vinyl acetylene as feedstock gases, unique morphological differences were observed. Interwall spacing, a highly conserved value in natural graphitic materials, varied to accommodate side groups, increasing systematically from acetylene to methyl acetylene to vinyl acetylene. …”
