Ultrasonic and numerical estimation of thermal management of waste ink powder/epoxy composites

Every year, large toner cartridges are made and used in printers and copiers. Because waste cartridges contain toner powder with a specific chemical composition, they are classified as hazardous waste. As such, recovering waste cartridges is crucial for both waste management and...

Unsupervised Annotation Transfer in Phase-Contrast Microscopy Using a CycleGAN

Domain shift between microscopy imaging domains poses a significant challenge for deploying deep learning-based cell detection models across different experimental setups. Manual annotation of new microscopy datasets remains resource-intensive and time-consuming. This study prese...

Conducting Polymers: Materials, Mechanisms, and Applications – a Review

The 2000 Nobel Prize in Chemistry was awarded to Alan J. Heeger, Alan G. MacDiarmid, and Hideki Shirakawa for the discovery and development of conductive polymers, particularly polyacetylene. Since then, research on conducting polymers has progressed rapidly, with sustained focus...
