Near-infrared spectroscopic characterisation of Gaia ultra-cool dwarf candidates
(2024-05-01)
Context. The local census of very low-mass stars and brown dwarfs is crucial to improving our understanding of the stellar-substellar transition and their formation history. These objects, known as ultra-cool dwarfs (UCDs), ...
Heat transfer optimisation using novel biomorphic pin-fin heat sinks: An integrated approach via design for manufacturing, numerical simulation, and machine learning
(2024-05-01)
With the availability of advanced manufacturing techniques, non-conventional shapes and bio-inspired/biomorphic designs have shown to provide more efficient heat transfer. Consequently, this research investigates the heat ...
Stimuli‐Responsive Polymers for Engineered Emulsions
(2024-05)
Emulsions are complex. Dispersing two immiscible phases, thus expanding an interface, requires effort to achieve and the resultant dispersion is thermodynamically unstable, driving the system toward coalescence. Furthermore, ...
Design of Artificial Neurons of Memristive Neuromorphic Networks Based on Biological Neural Dynamics and Structures
(2024-05-01)
Memristive neuromorphic networks have great potentialand advantage in both technology and computationalprotocols for artificial intelligence. Efficient hardware design ofbiological neuron models forms the core of research ...
Sibling stories of parental mental distress
(2024-05)
This paper reports on the results of a study exploring sibling stories of parental mental distress and the societal discourses that may have contributed to the adult siblings' sense‐making. Four sibling pairs were purposively ...
The role of neoadjuvant chemotherapy for patients with variant histology muscle invasive bladder cancer undergoing robotic cystectomy: Data from the International Robotic Cystectomy Consortium
(2024-04-30)
Objective: To assess the role of neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) before robot-assisted radical cystectomy (RARC) for patients with variant histology (VH) muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). Methods: Retrospective review ...
Shifting attention from board anatomy to board physiology to understand the roles of directors: evidence from UK companies
(2024-04-30)
The study seeks to delineate the roles of board directors under agency and resource dependence perspectives. The literature review conducted suggests further research in clarifying the directors’ roles. The results of the ...
Amelia B. Edwards and Romantic Egyptology
(2024-04-30)
Amelia B. Edwards (1831–1892) was renowned for her profound mastery of Egyptology, possessing a knowledge some said surpassed that of her male counterparts. Her archaeological endeavours in Egypt merged with a vivid narrative ...
Projected changes in heatwaves and its impact on human discomfort over India due to global warming under the CORDEX-CORE framework
(2024-04-30)
Due to climate change, rapid warming and its further intensification over different parts of the globe have been recently reported. This has a direct impact on human health, agriculture, water availability, power generation, ...
