Integrated Structural, Physicochemical, Pharmacokinetic and Pharmacodynamic Evaluation of Substituted Phenylcarbonyloxypiperazinopropanols as Antimycobacterial Agents

This research aimed to evaluate structural, physicochemical and pharmacokinetic characteristics of racemic 2-hydroxy-3-(4-phenylpiperazin-1-yl)propyl 4-[(alkoxycarbonyl)amino]benzoates (Ib)–(IVb) and 2-hydroxy-3-[4-(R-substituted phenyl)piperazin-1-yl]propyl 4-[(alkoxycarbonyl)am...

Lead-free Cs2MH6 (M = Ge, Sn) vacancy-ordered double perovskites for optoelectronic applications: a first-principles study

Abstract Lead-free vacancy-ordered double perovskite hydrides are gaining attention as environmentally friendly materials for next-generation optoelectronic applications. In this work, first-principles density functional theory (DFT) calculations are employed to systematically in...

A strong-coupling theory for polarizable symmetrically charged walls with counterions only

A pair of parallel polarizable planar walls at a distance d is considered. The walls are symmetrically charged with a uniform surface charge density, neutralized by mobile point counterions moving between them. The case of repulsive particle images is studied in the strong-coupli...

Fracture Energy and Crack Resistance of Hybrid Fiber-Reinforced High-Strength Concrete: Experimental Study and Analytical Modeling

Abstract This study examines the fracture and mechanical performance of hybrid fiber-reinforced high-strength concrete (HFRHSC) with different water-to-binder (W/B) ratios. Six mixtures incorporating hybrid combinations of steel, polymer, glass, and basalt fibers were investigate...
