This study explores the shape-morphing behavior of 4D-printed structures made from Polylactic Acid (PLA), a prominent bio-sourced shape-memory polymer. Focusing on the response of these structures to thermal stimuli, this research investigates how various printing parameters influence their morphing …

The effective operation of distributed energy sources relies significantly on the communication systems employed in microgrids. This article explores the fundamental communication requirements, structures, and protocols necessary to establish a secure connection in microgrids. This article examines the …

Protein kinases function as pivotal regulators in biological events, governing essential cellular processes through the transfer of phosphate groups from ATP molecules to substrates. Dysregulation of kinase activity is frequently associated with cancer, ocasionally arising from chromosomal translocation …

Este artículo busca señales de discursos de odio aparecidos en comentarios sobre el procés y el independentismo catalán publicados en las noticias en prensa sobre Lionel Messi en Madrid y en Barcelona (Abc, La Vanguardia, Mundo Deportivo, Marca, El mundo y As) en el periodo 2019-2021. Partiendo de 2.639 …

We, Rajni and Laura, have been writing letters to each other for several years including in the context of collaboration on a large research project concerned with interspecies relations and the notion of "radical equality". For Listening across difference: letters of love/questions of radical equality …

Hacktivism represents the promotion in the cyber landscape of ideo-logically motivated agendas using hacking techniques. Despiteresearch on the topic has provided some clues on how hacktivistnetworks develop, the processes behind their evolution remain mostlyunknown. This gap in the literature prompted …

The NDT methods currently used in aviation MRO are predominantly labour-intensive and time-consuming processes performed by human operators throughout the lifespan of an aircraft. These techniques are time-consuming, require perpetual training and are highly dependent on the operator's skills. Thus, …

This study presents a detailed buckling analysis of laminated composites reinforced by multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) inclusions using a multiscale computational framework. It combines multiple analytical and computational techniques to assess the performance of these composites under varying hygro-thermo-mechanical …

This study aims to provide an in-depth characterization of the intelligent behaviour exhibited by structures fabricated using fused deposition modelling (FDM) printing technology. The primary objective is to understand the variability in the shape-morphing behaviour of additively manufactured PLA structures. …

Purpose of this study This study aims to better understand the deliberate design of student learning in living labs. Theoretical background The intended purpose of living labs in higher education is to integrate education, research and professional practice and thereby integrate initial learning (of …
