Nanostructured bimetallic sulfides as Na ion battery anodes by Chen, Jingwei

“…By employing ether electrolyte, bimetallic sulfide-based composites anode further enhanced the rate performance and cycling stability, thus delivering a fast and stable SIB full cell by employing CMS1-rGO anode. In addition, the electrochemical mechanism of NMGS and PBC1-1S have been investigated, confirming the conversion reaction in carbonate-based electrolyte while intercalation is dominant in the ether electrolyte. …”

Development of an air conditioning compressor for a 2-in-1 electric motor for electric vehicles by N. Satheesh Kumar

“…Data published by Mitsubishi Motors reveals that the air-conditioning system reduces the cruise-range of the EV by as much as 50% when operated at full capacity. Keeping this in focus, the objective of the present thesis is to design a new 2-in-1 motor electric motor for EVs that integrates the air-conditioning compressor, its motor and the traction motor in a single system. …”

Fictions of youth: childness in selected West African novels, 1991-2009 by Moellenberg, T

“…</p> <p>Chapter 3 continues to explore the figure of the child as a complex and multivalent symbol. However, it finds that Helen Oyeyemi's <em>The Icarus Girl</em> (2005) and Yaba Badoe's <em>True Murder</em> (2009) do not disavow children's personhood, as Iweala and Jarrett-Macauley appear to do. …”

Design, fabrication and characterization of organic-inorganic hybrid solar cells by Ahmed Ali Said Ahmed

“…Organic transporting materials are distinguished by low synthesis price, tunable frontier molecular orbital, easy of film forming and stable toward air. Organic transporting materials can be classified into organic small molecules and N-type conjugated polymers. …”

Remote digital cognitive assessment reveals cognitive deficits related to hippocampal atrophy in autoimmune limbic encephalitis: a cross-sectional validation study by Shibata, K, Attaallah, B, Tai, X-Y, Trender, W, Hellyer, PJ, Hampshire, A, Irani, SR, Manohar, SG, Husain, M

“…</p> <br> <p><strong>Interpretation:</strong> These findings demonstrate that subtle cognitive deficits in patients with chronic ALE, who often show full recovery in measures of disability and dependence on daily activities, are detectable using a remote online platform, which also relates to hippocampal atrophy. …”

Understanding lived experiences of bereaved parents of children with chronic life-threatening Illness : towards a culture-specific and meaning-oriented narrative E-writing interven... by Dutta, Oindrila

“…Qualitative framework analysis of post-intervention feedback highlighted participants’ satisfaction with the opportunity to reflect on their caregiving experiences, acceptance of an internet-and-narrative-based platform for self-expression and structured counseling support, and compatibility of the NeW-I therapeutic-protocol with participants’ needs. Taken together, findings from this pilot investigation indicate that NeW-I could enhance holistic pediatric palliative services in Singapore and a full-scale community trial with a larger and more diverse sample is warranted. …”

Use of functional magnetic resonance imaging to identify cortical loci for lower limb movements and their efficacy for individuals after stroke by Choi, Minseok, Kim, Hyun-Chul, Youn, Inchan, Lee, Song Joo, Lee, Jong-Hwan

“…Background Identification of cortical loci for lower limb movements for stroke rehabilitation is crucial for better rehabilitation outcomes via noninvasive brain stimulation by targeting the fine-grained cortical loci of the movements. However, identification of the cortical loci for lower limb movements using functional MRI (fMRI) is challenging due to head motion and difficulty in isolating different types of movement. …”
