A machine learning framework of ground-state properties of finite nuclei foraccelerated Bayesian exploration : NucleiML

Abstract The global behavior of the nuclear equation of state (EoS) is commonly studied using data from finite nuclei (FN), heavy-ion collisions, and astrophysical observations of neutron stars (NS). The constraints derived from FN such as binding energies and charge radii play t...

Modulating Electronic Structure and Morphology in Nb‐NiCoS for PET Plastic Upcycling

ABSTRACT Electrocatalytic polyethylene terephthalate (PET) upcycling coupled with green hydrogen production offers an energy‐efficient route for plastic waste valorization. Herein, Nb‐incorporated NiCoS electrocatalysts are synthesized on nickel foam via a one‐step chemical bath...

Coping with tropical cyclone Fani’s impact on housing: roof repair as a strategy

Purpose A tropical cyclone produces high wind speeds, impacting houses, particularly the semi-engineered and non-engineered types. This paper aims to understand how people in Puri district of Odisha, India, where approximately 278,000 houses were affected by tropical cyclone Fani...

Thiochromene Analogues as Antiparasitic Chemotype: Synthesis, Antiplasmodial and Antitrypanosomal Profiling, Experimental Validation, and Computational Insights into Trypanothione Reductase Inhibition

Abstract The emergence of drug resistance and the limited availability of effective therapeutics continue to hinder the treatment of protozoal diseases, highlighting the need for new chemotypes with broad-spectrum antiparasitic potential. In the present study, a series of nitro a...

Si‐Rich SiOC–rGO Composites as Advanced Anodes for Lithium‐Ion Batteries

Silicon oxycarbide (SiOC) has emerged as a promising anode material for next‐generation lithium‐ion batteries owing to its structural stability and ability to accommodate large amounts of lithium. However, its practical application is often limited by insufficient electronic cond...

Compression behaviour of stiffened double skin tubular columns: Influence of stiffener number and sub-panel width

Double-skin tubular columns (DSTCs) represent one of the most advanced lightweight steel-concrete composite designs featuring two concentrically arranged hollow steel tubes, with concrete infill positioned between them. These light weight DSTCs are very efficient at withstanding...

Designing Unreinforced Elastomeric Isolators for Masonry Buildings: Taguchi Approach Leveraging Regression Equations and Weighted Score Method

Abstract Elastomeric isolators are widely recognized as effective solutions for mitigating the seismic and vibrational impacts in masonry structures. Nevertheless, the pursuit of cost-effective, viable, and reliable isolation strategies for masonry buildings remains an ongoing re...

Tuning Analyte Accessibility through Side-Chain-Controlled Supramolecular Organization of Pyridyl-Terminated OPV Derivatives

Abstract The ability to regulate analytical performance through noncoordinating side-chain engineering remains largely unexplored in supramolecular sensing systems. Herein, we report two structurally analogous pyridyl-terminated oligophenylenevinylene (OPV) chromophores bearing h...

Metal nanoparticles incorporated MIL-101(Cr) for enhanced hydrogen storage at room temperature

MIL-101(Cr) is considered a potential material for hydrogen (H 2 ) storage, but its H 2 uptake at room temperature was found to be low. However, incorporating metal nanoparticles (MNPs) into the framework helps enhance its H 2 uptake. Platinum (Pt) is the commonly used MNP to inc...

Novel bimetallic ZIF (Cu-Zn-ZIF-8) for enhanced and stable carbon capture from industrial moisture-laden flue gas through systematic and hierarchical material and process optimization

Post-combustion carbon capture (PCCC) in the presence of moisture faces challenges due to competition between CO 2 and H 2 O for adsorption sites, thereby impacting both efficiency and stability. Ten adsorbents, including metal–organic frameworks and bimetallic ZIFs, were investi...

Two-Dimensional MXene-Reinforced Polymer Nanocomposites: Synthesis, Multifaceted-Properties, Applications, and Perspectives

Abstract MXenes, an emerging class of two-dimensional (2D) transition metal carbonitrides, nitrides, and carbides, are gaining significant attention due to their unique layered structures and versatile surface chemistries. These characteristics provide them with exceptional prope...

Existence Results for Singular Nabla Fractional Perturbed Problems

The aim of the present work is to study a class of singular perturbed nabla fractional problems coupled with Dirichlet conditions. Under sufficient conditions we show that the related Green’s function that can be expressed as an infinite series, is positive, which improves signif...

A chimeric circumsporozoite protein exhibits strong seroreactivity in plasmodium falciparum and plasmodium vivax infections

Malaria remains a major global health challenge, demanding new strategies for effective and broad-spectrum vaccine development. Circumsporozoite Protein (CSP) is the primary target of pre-erythrocytic malaria vaccines such as RTS, S/AS01 and R21/Matrix-M, though their species-spe...

Marketing Beyond Broadening: Boundarying and the Cumulative Development of Marketing Theory

Marketing's broadening has enabled the discipline to engage diverse phenomena, but it has also created a theoretical problem: empirical relevance does not necessarily constitute a marketing contribution. This commentary identifies this theoretical dilemma as the Broadening Parado...
