Our Universe is vibrating.

Visualization of vector acoustic fields using sound intensity measurements is a very interesting field of acoustics and has numerous applications. Unfortunately, sound intensity measurement itself requires specialized measuring instruments (presure–presure (PP) or pressure–velocity (PU)-type probes). This article presents a simplified and low-cost method of sound intensity measurement based on sound pressure measurements made synchronously. This […]

Background: Occupational risk assessments of VDT users are usually hindered by the variability of tasks that office workers perform. Digital eye strain is related to the amount of work time dedicated to screen fixation. Purpose: This study aimed to improve the risk assessment of VDT workers by introducing an advanced version of software developed at […]

This study investigates the feasibility of using fiber Bragg grating (FBG) sensors for multipoint thermal monitoring of several power semiconductor devices (PSDs), such as insulated gate bipolar transistors (IGBTs), and rectifiers assembled on a common heatsink in a three-phase inverter. A novel approach is proposed to integrate FBG sensors beneath the baseplates of the IGBT […]

Microcapsules are widely utilized in various applications to preserve active ingredients for prolonged durations while enabling controlled release. However, limited release of active ingredients often hampers their effectiveness in daily-use products. In this study, we demonstrated the synthesis of silica core–shell microcapsules designed for controlled fragrance release in topical formulations. The microcapsules were synthesized via […]

Convolutional neural networks (CNN) and Vision Transformers (ViT) have long been the main backbone networks for visual classification in the field of deep learning. Although ViT has recently received more attention than CNN due to its excellent fitting ability, their scalability is largely limited by the quadratic complexity of attention computation. For the determination of […]

Tanacetum vulgare L. has been traditionally applied as a remedy for headaches, rheumatism, digestion, respiratory and neurological problems, and other medical conditions. However, the literature data on its effects on cognitive function are scarce. The aim of the present work was to evaluate the effects of two doses of T. vulgare alcohol extract on cognitive […]

Platanus officinalis fibers (PFs) taking advantage of high-availability, eco-friendly and low-cost characteristics have attracted significant focus in the field of biomaterial application. Polyethyleneimine grafted with polydopamine on magnetic Platanus officinalis fibers (PEI-PDA@M-PFs) were prepared through a two-step process of mussel inspiration and the Michael addition reaction, which can work as an effective multifunctional biomass adsorbent […]

Industrialization has led to environmental pollution with various hazardous chemicals including pollution with metals. In this regard, the development of highly efficient analytical methods for their determination has received considerable attention to ensure public safety. Currently, scientists are paying more and more attention to the automation of analytical methods, since it permits fast, accurate, and […]

2-Arylethylamines are presented in several natural bioactive compounds, as well as in nitrogen-containing drugs. Their ability to surpass the blood–brain barrier makes this family of compounds of especial interest in medicinal chemistry. Asymmetric methodologies towards the synthesis of 2-arylethylamine motives are of great interest due to the challenges they may present. Thus, a concise metal-free […]

Purposes: To explore the optimization method and application of Au-NP-enhanced luminol––H2O2 luminescence system in TORCH (TOX, RV, CMV, HSVI, and HSVII) detection. Method: 4.5 × 10−5 mmol/L gold nano solution was prepared with chloroauric acid as the reducing agent and trisodium citrate as the stabilizer. After curing for 3 days, Au NPs participate in the […]
